Game play
Players are given a set of square cards which are to be played onto the table, which has a cardboard castle battlement layout.
Cards are played into one of four regions:
- in the courtyard,
- on the battlements,
- on the towers, or
- outside the castle.
When played, the cards will usually allow the player to take some sort of special action, which is unique to the card.{{bgg|655|Castle}}
