In Catapult Feud, players build castles from plastic bricks, position troops, and use catapults to knock down the opponent's forces. The game is played in rounds with phases like tactics, aiming, and firing. The goal is to be the last player with standing troops by skillfully launching projectiles to destroy enemy castles and troops.
Who Is This Game For?

How It Works
Each round consists of four phases: tactics, aiming, firing, and cleanup. Players choose their family, build a castle with plastic bricks, and place troops. Using catapults and action cards, they attempt to destroy the opponent’s structures and knock over troops. Movement Template and Event mechanics govern targeted projectile movements and unexpected effects.
