Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Card-driven action resolution — when a castle is captured, the capturing player draws a card from their deck which dictates the action for that turn
- deck-building / hand management — players build and manage a deck; cards drawn inform possible actions when played
- dexterity / catapult operating — players launch boulders with a small catapult to land in target areas (castle buckets) on their mat
- Throwing/Bouncing/Flipping — players launch boulders with a small catapult to land in target areas (castle buckets) on their mat
- tower construction / set collection — players place cards into their towers to build up more towers than spaces, triggering end-game conditions

Mechanics (from transcript analysis)
- Block and protection via cards — Some cards allow players to block attempts to steal towers or protect towers from being captured on a turn.
- Card-driven actions — Cards from hand grant extra shots, alter shots, block towers, or trigger special effects that influence shots or captures.
- Catapult aiming and firing — Players load a boulder on a spring-loaded catapult, pull back to varying tensions, and release to target neighboring towers; precision and timing matter.
- End-game scoring and tower-focused victory — All boulders are exhausted; players score by the number of towers controlled, with tiebreakers including ammo and hand size.
- Tower placement and capture rules — Towers are placed on player boards; hitting a tower can transfer or stack towers, with certain conditions causing different capture outcomes.

Quotes (from this video)
- this is a fun dexterity game about using a catapult to launch boulders at other players' castles
- it's still enjoyable for adults to play because it requires good aim of that catapult
- so take a shot at your family and friends in catapult castle
- the spring mechanism within it makes it hard to pull back at the same place every time so it requires skill to do well in this game
- you will never remove the ammo from the tower it remains inside till the end of the game
