Crush the Castle Walkthrough

Crush the Castle is a physics game that is similar to the popular iPhone app, Angry Birds. In fact, Crush the Castle is listed as one of the inspirations of Angry Birds. This puzzle game features detailed graphics, simple controls, and twenty-four castles to crush!

The objective of Crush the Castle is to kill all of the inhabitants of each castle. This is accomplished by battering the castle walls using your trebuchet. Inhabitants of the castle can be hit directly by the stones and other ammunition released by the trebuchet, but the real fun in this physics game is causing the castle walls and ceilings to cave in and crush your enemies! You have limited ammunition to accomplish your goal, and if you run out of ammo before the job is done, you will have to restart the level. You may also restart the current level manually by pressing the R key. Your progress is automatically saved after each stage, so you may continue your game at a later time if you need to take a break.

Crush the Castle uses a simple mouse control scheme. Simply click to start the trebuchet and click again to release its ammunition. If you prefer to use the keyboard, you can also shoot the trebuchet by pressing the spacebar. Use the arrow keys to move the camera. This is useful for scouting the castle and planning your shots.

As you progress in this physics game, new ammunition types will be introduced. Although some ammunition types release multiple objects, using these types of ammunition only counts as one shot. You can use any type of ammunition available to you without penalty, so choose what works best for you. To select a type of ammunition, click the icon at the bottom of the screen that represents the ammo that you wish to use.

If you enjoy Angry Birds and want to play the physics game that provided inspiration for the famous franchise, then give Crush the Castle a try. If the twenty-four castles featured in this puzzle game aren't enough, you can even try your hand at building castles of your own!
