'It is apparent that Zen Studios was determined to capitalize on the popularity of the casual style gameplay when they developed CastleStorm – out now on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network. In fact, Zen apparently has no qualms in proudly displaying its influences like artifacts in a museum. Gamers would have to have led a fairly sheltered life to not see the obvious influences of the classic artillery strategy games like Worms and Angry Birds, or tower defense games like Defense Grid and Plants vs. Zombies. Heck, there is a handy portion of Ghosts ‘n Goblins style Hack-n-Slash melee combat as well as a healthy dose of RPG elements thrown in to boot.'

Now available on Nintendo Switch, CastleStorm is a light-hearted take on the tower defence genre, and it’s fantastic.
I almost want to get this. I've played Castlestorm before on the Vita, and it was pretty good.
Zen Studios’ Castlestorm makes its way to Switch, polishing gameplay from a number of other games and bringing in its own humorous writing to tie everything together.
I like the art style and color palate.
