Crush The Castle A very cool game involving catapults and some pretty rickety castles. That said, I'm stuck on level 19.
Awesome find, BP. I've played something similar to this before, but it was missing a certain level of polish/charm/killing of Medieval folks that this one has in spades.
I had to stop at level 13 to get ready for a cookout we're headed to, but I'll be back. Dropping the large stone on the queen's head was too much of an enticement not to return and finish the game.
I walked away to tend to dinner while Sophie was enjoying watching. It's a little weird to hear your almost eight year old daughter chortling and shouting "Kill them!" but...it's pretty cartoonish. Anyway...in the 5 minutes I was in the kitchen, she was shouting updates to me. By the time I got back she was on Castle 23!
I finally licked castle 19, and got up to 22 or 23 (I forget) before I had to leave the computer for a bit.
richat, should you ever decide to invade a medieval type country, I suggest letting Sophie lead the charge. Heh!!
I played with the level editor a little bit, but not enough to see if you could save levels where other people can play them. THAT could be fun, if you can do it.
Gah... the last castle is proving to be a real bitch. I keep blowing off the top two stories easily, but all the fallen bits keep protecting the person on the lowest story.
