Game ideas: Battle Castles
From GPWiki
The wiki is now hosted by GameDev.NET at wiki.gamedev.net. All gpwiki.org content has been moved to the new server. However, the GPWiki forums are still active! Come say hello. I've always loved the old DOS game "Castles" where you build up a castle using money and resources, and try to withstand attacks. However, I always wished that there were a multiplayer version of the game, where castles could be built and pitted against other players' castles and armies. Or, you could even have alliances... you and one other player vs 2 others. If your ally's castle is attacked, you'd have to sallyforth to help defend him. But what if it's a trick, designed to lure you away from your home castle? Oh, the intrigue! In fact, I believe Castles2 was all about territorial conquest, and used castles to fortify conquered areas. Something similar could be done, in a multiplayer setting...
