Castle

2 to 5 players.  Ages 12 to adult. $16.95
Infighting and Intrigue in the King's Castle

The Castle is small, and there is not enough room for everyone. You must try to place all of your characters in the castle before your opponents do. In order to accomplish this you will have to plan carefully, and place your characters intelligently. When properly used your characters can pave the way for more of your characters to enter the castle, while keeping your opponents out. However, your opponents have characters that are just as powerful as yours. Some can even eject and return to your hand those which you have already placed.

Theme  
Castle is a game where is dictated by their ability to position their characters prominently in the court. The places you can put a new card into play are constantly changing, so players must have a flair for deception and observation to win. The back and forth exchange of cards from the player' hands to the game board and vice versa constantly change each players prospect of winning. Thus, it is necessary that the players be attentive to the ever changing situation at the castle, and not miss their chance to take advantage.

Goal of the game
The game board represents a fantasy castle and the surrounding area. The cards represent different characters found in and around the castle. Each player tries to be the first to place all of their character cards onto the board. Most of the cards have some sort of special effect when they are placed, often causing one or more other cards to be sent back to the hands of other players. The winner of the game is the first player to get rid of all their cards.

Characteristics
The more players you have, the more luck can factor into the game, and the shorter the game will last. For example with two players, Castle is very tactical, and can last over an hour. A five player game is easier to play, and rarely lasts more than a half hour.
