Castle Doombad Classic Free Download
Game Overview
BAD IS BACK! Castle Doombad is the treacherous strategy / Tower Defense puzzler where you play the villain and must defend against the pesky heroes so-rudely invading your evil lair. This Classic edition includes the original Castle Doombad from 2014, newly rebuilt and remastered from the ground up, plus the addition of brand-new content and features. Slay the good guys with your choice of over two dozen delightfully devious traps and minions! Strategically mix-n-match your arsenal with wicked weapons that fire automatically and manually-activated traps that require precision timing to pack a painful punch! Unlock and upgrade your traps, troops, and castle on your quest to become the baddest of them all! Break Bad and defend your dark domain across 75 puzzling stages, or take on the nefarious new roguelite mode. In this new mode, the challenge is ramped up, and no two attempts are the same. Choose how your castle expands as you advance, grow your trap arsenal during each run, and collect mighty Nightmare powers to make the heroes pray for a quick Game Over. Collect loot from fallen heroes to deck out your Dark Lord and his control room! Each item includes a Baddie Bonus upgrade — but your equipment spots are limited, so prepare to tinker with different diabolical builds.
