Castle Story

Castle Story - the team of "braktions" gets an empty site and complete freedom: to build towers, villages and entire castles, using only the tools they find. What exactly appears on the map depends on the player’s imagination. The landscape can be remade: digging holes, building stairs and laying roads to the mines. Construction takes place in real time, and workers themselves carry blocks, cut wood and build walls. The layout matters: a crooked road or a suspended block can bring down the idea, and then everything has to be dismantled. In addition to demons, the danger is posed by one’s own mistakes: walls that are too high without support collapse, and workers sometimes fall into a trap. Over time, new tools and types of buildings appear, so the Early Access project has been updated over the years. Creative mode allows you to build without enemies if you want peace. The world does not remain peaceful: “Corrupt Rona” are demons that come to destroy buildings. Towers with incendiary shells are placed against them, and workers take up bows and swords, forming groups. At night, attacks happen more often, so lighting and walls should be thought out in advance, otherwise the work will drag on for days. At first, no one bothers you to settle in calmly, so there is time to prepare. The game forgives mistakes, but forces you to learn to plan ahead, otherwise the fortress turns into ruins. Some tasks involve searching for rare materials in caves and on neighboring islands. The music is calm, and it makes you think well about the layout of the next fortress. For those who like to build in sandboxes and are not afraid to protect what they have built.
