Castle Crashers® is a 2D Beat 'em up set in a medieval fantasy world.

You're a... Let's be honest, we're not here for the story, we're all here for a glorious pilgrim full of enemies, princess’s kisses, pvp, playable characters, pets, weapons, magic, archery, evil wizards, dark humour, cool easter eggs and a great time with friends. If you're looking for all or a single one of those, this is a game you have to play.

Imma tell a story. So my cousin, brother and I we're goofing around on the Xbox then my cousin said while browsing the xbox store said this game looks cool lets try it! We bought it downloaded it and launched it. I was the Blue Knight my brother was the orange, and my cousin was the red. we got to lava world then me and my brother had to go. My brother and I pleaded our father to buy it too. We ended up convincing him, so we all three of us played it til wedding crash then my bro had to go. and me and my father got to Full Moon, then I had to go to my mom's. the next weekend I went to my dad's I convinced my little sister (5 at the time) To play castle crashers. And since then me and her played it soooooo much. then came when my brother got back into it, me and him were fire and ice like before, but im lvl 58 and hes lvl 61 we both played to the final boss, turned out we were overleveled and it was too easy so we went to insane mode to die to the barbarian boss multiple times. He gave up on it, so I continued to play it alot with my sister. she now has lvl 70 posion knight and rn on the xbox cc im 98 ice knight. 3 Years later I got steam, and played it alot. And when I figured out Castle Crashers was on steam I freaked out. I've played it alot ever since, and still play it. This is my favorite childhood game 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000/10 I need friends to play this with that have skype please. XD :3

An awesome with tons of fun and adventure. Would totally recommend this game anyday.

Game is great fun with a group of friends. Cartoony, casual, and somewhat challenging at times, Castle Crashers is a good purchase for its price. Recommended

10/10 best game ever for a 2d game it was and still is worth buying it after beating the campiang and arenas its still fun to help friends and other players out or play insane mode for a challange for you or to try to get to max lvl just a well made game wouldnt say anything bad about it

Fun

The soundtrack cured my cancer

Possibly the best multiplayer game I've ever played.
The gameplay is incredibly fun and fast-paced, the combos are satisfying, there are multiple different character builds you can make using the level-up system, and there are tons of unlockables, such as new characters with different move sets, new weapons with different stats and special effects, and animal orbs (essentially pets) granting you lots of different bonuses, from increasing your character's strength, through ramming down enemies, to pecking away at knocked down enemies.
The remastered edition (the edition available on steam) re-balanced lots of weapon and animal orb stats, and added a new mode called "Back Off Barbarian", in which you escape from constantly spawning enemies and get a rating based on the time you managed to survive.
Although the game is intended to be played in co-op, it's perfectly playable and enjoyable in singleplayer.
The game's controls work very well with a gamepad, but with some rebinding, can also be quite good on a keyboard.
The only larger flaw the game has, in my opinion, is the lack of randomly generated levels and enemies, which would add a lot to the replay value. However, the game is still very replayable thanks to tons of hidden content, such as weapons or animal orbs, making you discover something new every run.
The game's soundtrack is fantastic as well, with each area having a very fitting and enjoyable track.
The game's art style might seem basic to some, but actually works very well with the game's gameplay and feel.
Overall, the steam edition of Castle Crashers is a solid 8.5/10 for me. Would recommend to nearly everyone, even if multiplayer isn't necessarily your thing.

tl;dr: The game is very, very good. Buy it. Worth it even at full price.
