    It is a perfect nostalgia revamp. It also offers better graphics smoother frame rate and the new mode is just an added bonus. I appreciate that Behemoth brought back a classic for die hard fans.

    Absouletely love castle crashes the remastered version is so good, and just the small add on of back off barbarian gives it a lot more variety and replay time.

    This is a little classic game with a pretty flash style and a style of humor that feels very late 2000s internet.

    Enough said
    From the art style to the music and humour this game hits all the perfect notes for me and it played a giant part in my childhood

    Castle Crashers Remastered is one of the greatest games of all time. It adds so much content to a game that needed more of it and the comedy is top notch, it truely is a comedy the whole way through, but still has intense moments. I recommend this game to anyone who wants a nice adventure game.

    A pretty fun game, that maybe rises a great nostalgia on you. Castle Crashes is a really funny Hack 'n Slash game, with much characters to play, a lot of secrets, good gameplay, and a surprising replay factor. Play Castle Crashers, and preferentially with at least one friend, the game is really funnier when you have someone else to share this experience

    I played the original with my dad on the ps3 when it first came out it was a blast to play and was amazing, and it's even better thanks to this remaster and now i can play it with my siblings who never played the game before.

    This is a Perfect remaster of a classic hack and slash. Updated graphics mechanics more DLC's that are actually well priced and more to do. Not much to be said it's just a really good game for a really good price of $15 and if you think that it's too much every summer it's on sale for $5. a good game would rate 10/10

    Very simple and basic combat but still very satisfying due to the fact that you can juggle enemies in the air. Best part about this game is the huge variety of enemies you fight and the characters you can unlock and choose. The story is quite good considering it is very bare bones. Every level feels fairly different with the environment- snow, desert, Lava, graveyard and forest area- soVery simple and basic combat but still very satisfying due to the fact that you can juggle enemies in the air. Best part about this game is the huge variety of enemies you fight and the characters you can unlock and choose. The story is quite good considering it is very bare bones. Every level feels fairly different with the environment- snow, desert, Lava, graveyard and forest area- so the game does not get old or boring. Also the ton of weapons and pets is very satisfying. Playing with others can be even more fun. The best part of the game was the necromancer fight where every enemy gets summoned- very good music as well. Insane mode was also fun but doesn't change much besides health and damage. Combat can get very repetitive.… Expand

    Played the original on Xbox 360 constantly when I was younger and I still adore it. I used to boot up my Xbox 360 just to play it again every few months but I bought the remaster a while back and it is still the same masterpiece of a game I still constantly go back to.

    If you somehow still haven't played Castle Crashers, now is the perfect time to do so. If you already have the game on another platform, it may not be worth the upgrade, because the game has been changed so little that you won't be missing anything new.

    Castle Crashers Remastered is even seven years at it's original release, still very fun to play. Unfortunately there aren't any significant improvements and changes, and that's quite a shame.
