Crush the Castle

Did anyone else get charged $15 for the game? or is that just me? Either way this game was one of my favorites growing up whenever i had access to my dad’s computer. Good times…

Been playing this game off and on over the past 15 years. Played the original on the PC and didn’t hesitate to acquire the ported version on the iPhone when it was released. The only reason I didn’t give this five stars is because I vividly remember having more fun when I played it for the first time on the PC. There were more features with the new items that were introduced for each map and region. They DO give you new items on this version but it just isn’t the same when I played this on the PC. All in all, this is a fun game to help kill time and it brings back memories from when I first played it. Not as good as the original but it gets the job done. 👍

It’s fun as the computer version just not as many levels?I don’t remember if the pc version had more but it took me 3 days max to beat it , really sad because it is really fun

If anyone can figure out how to get past flintlock in gray wastes let me know. It is out of range of everything.

Some of the levels the castle is too far away for ANY ammo to reach.

I’m seeing a lot of poor reviews for this game, really nit picking the features. First of all, let’s be honest. Most mobile ports of just about any game, computer or console, have piss poor controls and limited features. Also, every level in this game is completely possible to achieve a gold metal if you put your mind to it. Sometimes you just have to go for silver and then come back after you’ve completed the entire island and gotten all the possible projectiles. People also seem to be melding together Crush the Castle 1 and 2. This game keeps the levels similar to 1, but steals some of the projectiles from 2. You can’t expect it to have every single detail from both games. It’s a tiny, compressed mobile game. I paid for this game years ago and redownload it every time I’m in the mood to play it, and every time I am not disappointed. My fuel? Nostalgia. Who cares if you can’t mute the game, or can’t 100% every castle easily, or can’t zoom out? It’s doesn’t matter. The whole point of this port is so that millions of people can relive a childhood experience, and many have lost sight of that. The reason that there have been no recent updates is because this game is already perfect for what it set out to achieve. Nostalgia, childhood reflection, and a fun escape from everyday life.

On skull island in grey waste, the left most level is not possible to beat. I have been stuck on this level for some time now. The castle is too far to reach. I have tried every type of ammunition available although it is physically impossible to reach the targets. If anyone can help please let me know

Either the rose tinted glasses were darker than i thought or they messed up some things in the port because its not as good as I remember. The upsides are the fun and quirky variety or throwables and how some are satisfying… but thats if they work right. For example, one mission required pinpoint precision with a firebomb to set the wood in the castle on fire to be a one shot, but it didn’t spread to everything for some reason making me do the difficult shot again and only on the third time did it spread properly. Another was where i had to launch a block at a castle using a well placed bomb, but the block hit the ground like it was magnetic and lost all momentum making me do the hard shot again. All this precise work with a funky trebuchet just to have your amazing shot be worthless really killed the fun of some creative levels. Its a bit of old school fun but not worth the money.

Defeated every level in 1 shot it took me ages. Wish more games like this were made today I miss the days of games like this

Sometimes very entertaining, but often frustrating because of lack of zoom control and unreasonable firing mechanic. On some of the castles the precision of targeting required is beyond the ability of the firing mechanic to support, and with the lack of zoom, the game often becomes simply a game of chance.
