In CastleStorm, players manage a medieval battle from their own fortress while attempting to destroy the enemy’s castle or capture their flag.
The main campaign follows Sir Gareth as he leads his troops against raging Vikings to recover a stolen gem and restore peace.
A key strategic element is the Castle Editor , where you design your own layout. Your choice of rooms determines the types of troops, resources, and magic spells available in battle.
