Castle Builder

CASTLE BUILDER gives you an empty plot of land in a sunny valley and a wheel full of castle pieces. Point, pull the trigger, and a wall snaps onto the tile grid. Aim at the top of it and the next piece stacks on. Build a gatehouse, drop in a portcullis that winches itself up as you walk to it, put roofs and flags on your towers, then stroll through the gate you built.

THE BUILD WHEEL Five pages of pieces: WALLS, TOWERS, GATES, DECOR and PEOPLE. Walls, corners, doorways and stairs. Square and round towers with windows, balconies, roofs and spires. Gate arches, drawbridges, doors, banners. Trees, rocks, a catapult, a trebuchet, a battering ram and a siege tower.

PEOPLE Twelve villagers to place from the wheel. Set one down and they walk your castle grounds, never through a wall, and wave when you come close. Pick them up and move them like any other piece.

CASTLE COLOURS One press cycles eight colour styles across everything you have built.

READY-MADE CASTLES Starter Fort, Royal Castle and Grand Fortress drop in piece by piece. Explore them, add to them, or clear the land and start again.

Everything auto-saves. Undo up to forty steps. Standing play with snap turning and smooth walking across a 104 m meadow with hills, a forest and a lake.
