'''''Castles''''' is a [[Real Time Strategy]] game produced by Quicksilver
In ''Castles'', the player must construct anywhere between 3 to 8 castles (depending on difficulty), with each castle comprising a single "mission" in the game. Starting with an empty field, you must design your castle using various set-pieces of walls and towers. Then, laborers of different professions must be recruited to construct the various stages of each piece. Taxes must be raised, and naturally an army built to protect the castle from attacks by various local factions (as well as some supernatural armies, when the game's "fantasy" mode is activated).
Line 8:
This was one of the first games to feature VGA graphics (256 colors) as well as mouse control and Midi music. It was highly acclaimed, and received a reasonably good sequel that took the castle-building business one step further, mixing in "grand strategy" elements as your faction vied for control of Medieval France.

* [[Conservation of Ninjutsu]]: Sort of. The more soldier units you place on the map before a battle, the weaker each unit will be. That's because your total soldiers available will be split up into as many units as you placed. Of course, having less units means it'll take more time to defeat the enemy.
* [[Corrupt Church]]: In the sequel, you have to gain the Pope's favor to become the king of France, and the main way to do this is by bribery (i.e. buying indulgences). [[Justified Trope|Exactly what you'd expect for a game set in medieval France.]]
