Description

WINNER OF THE 5TH STREET GAMES CONTEST!
(Unfortunately 5th Street Games went bankrupt but Castle Defenders can be purchased here until another publisher is found)

STORY:
The country is at war, and a neighboring kingdom threatens to overtake your land. As ruler, you must protect your castles and lead your people to victory. Weeks of fighting have exhausted the resources of both sides, forcing the two leaders to reach an agreement. One final battle will determine the winner, as equal forces face each other in a test of skill. The battle-horn sounds at dawn...do you have what it takes to defend your castle?

ABOUT:
Castle Defenders: Pocket has an 8"x16" modular gameboard, easy combat mechanics, and the perfect balance of strategy vs. luck. Plus it will even fit in most cargo pockets! It is easy to learn and will appeal to families and hardcore gamers alike.

GAMEPLAY:
Games last between 30-45 minutes and are recommended for ages 8+. Play by yourself or with a friend (upcoming expansion packs will introduce new teams and allow for 2 vs. 2 cooperative games).

The basic mechanics can be explained in less than 5 minutes, with additional concepts (combat, shields, and spells) taking an extra 5 minutes to learn. Become fully proficient after just one game!
