    Addictive and fun RTS/tower defence with a nice art style, dry sense of humour and light hearted atmosphere. There are a healthy amount of game modes and upgradeable units along with a simple castle editor and local or online co-op and versus multiplayer. It's a nice change of pace from hectic racers/shooters.

    It's encouraging to see that Zen Studios can create something quite unique    Addictive and fun RTS/tower defence with a nice art style, dry sense of humour and light hearted atmosphere.

    A great game well worth 800 MSP.    … Expand

    ça ressemble à un jeu iphone, ça en a le mauvais goût, ça suinte la 2D de supermarché et les 16 couleurs sur une palette à peine plus grande ; on s'en lasse vite, on s'y ennuie rapidement. Ses mécaniques sont simplistes et répétitives : pas de doute il s'agit d'un jeu "indépendant" triple Z.

    L'ambiance imbécile dans laquelle il se complaît et se roule, content de lui et se croyant "drôle", le destine à un jeune public ; cependant il plaira également aux adulescents encore en phase de rébellion contre l'impérialisme triple A. Ou aux étudiants de gauche (pléonasme). Si cela peut se jouer quelques minutes dans le bus, c'est plus problématique sur la console de salon où ses défauts vous sautent au visage littéralement.    … Expand

    Castlestorm mixes action and strategy in a tower defense game reminiscent of both roleplaying games, Warcraft and Angry Birds. It’s a mix that is sometimes messy, oftentimes fun and with unexpected amounts of depth and variety in its mechanics.

    For a company so well known for it’s console-spanning pinball franchise, Castlestorm is as beautiful and precise as any one of their fantastic tables.

    Simple, compelling and really hard to put down. [Issue#100, p.87]
