CastleStorm is a combination 2D tower defense and brawler with physics destruction thrown in for added fun. Play as either Knights or as Vikings, build up towers and watch them come tumbling down as your enemy assaults your fortress.

Play in a single-player campaign, a 1v1 split-screen duel, a co-op battle, or a co-op last stand against waves and waves of enemies.

With the game’s castle constructor, you can create a custom castle to keep out invaders. Bolster your defenses with ground forces and artillery. Use ballistae to rain destruction on enemies, hold them off with knights and donkey riders, harass them with homing eagles, and even hurl livestock at their ranks. When all else fails, turn to magic to keep the enemy at bay.

Obtain victory by achieving objectives: capture the flag, destroy the castle, or a combination of several goals. Complete them to gain rewards that will help you on your next campaign. CastleStorm is a must-play for fans of tower defense games.
