Reception

Swords, Sorcery, and Whimsy unite, in this fun feudal take on the Tower Defence Genre. Solid mechanics backed by exceptional use of the hardware's unique properties, and extensive content for the solo player as well as the many, make CastleStorm a worthy acquisition to adorn any Switch home screen.

If you're looking for a hidden RTS gem on the Switch, CastleStorm is unfortunately not going to change much for you. It's a perfectly serviceable game with a lengthy campaign and plenty of customisation, but it lacks defining mechanics that inspire or excite players.

CastleStorm combines the joy of Angry Birds and tower defense games, and sprinkles in some fun fighting sections. Balancing offense and defense is satisfying, especially when you successfully complete your missions. The tone of the game is light-hearted, which makes it all the more enjoyable.

CastleStorm has been entertaining gamers for over 5 years and this Switch version is the most enjoyable iteration to date.

For its price, CastleStorm is a gem, and a very noble addition to the Switch's library indeed.
