Evaluation

Castle Story launched out of Early Access on August 17, 2017 and received a sustained run of post-launch updates throughout 2017 and 2018. The developer shipped seven major content updates after launch: the Quality of Life (1.1) update in December 2017, the Desert Biome in June 2018, the Catapult Update in July 2018, the Conquest Rework in July 2018, the Blueprint Library in September 2018, and finally the Winter Biome and Decorations update (1.1.10) on December 13, 2018. That December 2018 update is the last major content release on record, and it is also the last developer communication of any kind found across 50 scanned posts. The developer announced a new game called Mirador in May 2018, noting that "support for Castle Story will continue" at that time — but that statement predates the final content updates that did follow in mid-to-late 2018. No further roadmap, announcement, or patch of any kind has been posted since December 13, 2018. The sole DLC — the game's official soundtrack — was released on January 25, 2018 and carries no unreleased companion content. There are no announced but unshipped DLC packs, no roadmap for future content, and no developer statement suggesting additional updates are planned. The update cadence, which had been roughly every 1–3 months throughout 2018, has been silent since December 13, 2018 — well over seven years ago. The game appears to have reached its final state with the 1.1.10 update.

About this game

An epic adventure awaits you in Castle Story, a strategy game where you command friendly creatures called Bricktrons. Have them explore, carve, dig and gather resources from vast, spectacular floating islands, reshaping the voxel-based world to your desire!



Design and build any structure you can imagine! From mighty and legendary castles to sprawling Bricktron villages. Beware, your Bricktrons will have to take arms and defend themselves against mysterious creatures, the Corruptrons. Build catapults and hurl explosive barrels at the invaders, or lure them into strategically placed traps! The physics system will also challenge the sturdiness of your architecture! A tower whose foundation is destroyed will crumble to the ground realistically.



Castle Story is also a multiplayer experience! Challenge your friends to a round of Conquest or join forces with them to repel the enemies in the Co-Op Invasion gamemode. Of course, you can also group up in sandbox and build together!



The maps in Castle Story are meticulously hand-crafted by the developers and we’re giving you access to the same tool we use! Create your own worlds with our awesome World Editor, share them with the community and try out other player-made maps!
