Press release:
Madrid, Spain (December 21, 2015) – Christmas is nearly here and with it comes the arrival of fresh downloadable content for Castles, the match-3 style puzzler released by BadLand Indie and WhootGames on Steam in October. Castles currently features a survival mode and a story mode. Now Jonathan Rivas, CTO of WhootGames, says “Enough with cooperative gameplay. It’s competition time!” The update will allow players to do what they’ve always wanted – challenge a best friend, partner in crime, or sibling to a death match. Individual play is rewarding, co-op is fun for a while, but competitive battles are where it’s really at!

Also, for a limited time, players will enjoy a Christmas backdrop as they attempt to build the tallest tower ever seen for the beloved King Harold. New character skins and a cheerful Christmas snowfall will brighten the ascent and player’s faces from now until January.

Buy Castles for $4.99 during the Steam holiday sale! The sale runs from Tuesday, December 22nd at 10:00AM PST to January 4th at 10:00 AM PST.
