The enemy sits before you. Load your cannon and prepare for battle. Demolish or be demolished.

Today’s game, Castle Conquest, has no cute bunnies or dancing chipmunks. This is a game of war and destruction. Well. Maybe just a game of destruction. The objective in Castle Conquest is to knock down the opposing castle’s flags before it can knock yours down. You’ll aim your cannon, set the power, and then aim and fire. If you manage to knock the enemy’s flags over you’ll gain points and gold that will unlock bigger and better castles.

Castle Conquest is a great game for individuals who enjoy a good snowball or water-balloon fight. Nice graphics and excellent physics keep the game interesting. One problem we had with the game that the firing mechanism on the cannons, the space bar, was sticky and less responsive than we would have liked. But this isn’t a huge issue and can be worked around by where you aim your cannon.
