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
