Featured in Nearly 150 App Store and Google Player Stores, Fun, Fast & Deep RTS Game from Bluehole PNIX Scores with #1 Ranking in 39 Countries and 4.6+ Average User Review Scores
SEOUL – Over 500,000 castles are burning each day as a new title sets charts ablaze… Bluehole PNIX today announced that Castle Burn, its new head-to-head real-time strategy battle game, is roaring up the charts with strong user reviews and a #1 Card Game App Store ranking in 39 countries. Selected for featuring on the App Store in 75 countries and on Google Play in 71 countries, the game has over one million downloads with over 500,000 matches being played each day. User ratings are strong across the board, with a 4.7 rating on the US App Store and a 4.6 Google Play rating worldwide.
To celebrate, Bluehole PNIX is giving away free in-game currency and card packs to all players who log in during the One Million Castles event that starts today and runs through Sunday, August 26. In addition, the company announced plans to introduce player Guilds and Guild Wars into the game in the upcoming months, adding a new team mechanic above the game’s vaunted ranked PvP matches.
“We are very gratified that Castle Burn is resonating with players so strongly, with one million downloads and extremely positive user ratings worldwide, and we want to reward the players who are driving our success,” said Junghoon Kim, CEO of Bluehole PNIX. “We are committed to adding more great content for our community, including bringing Guilds and Guild Wars to the game in the future.”
Castle Burn is set in a land of fantasy with magic, towers, Vikings, and dragons where players strategically deploy buildings and card-based units to lead their forces to victory and burn their rivals’ castles to the ground. The game pairs opponents based on player ranking points for strategic, head-on battles. Matches happen in real-time as players act to counter their opponent’s moves concurrently, attacking the enemy castle while protecting their own. While launching units, towers, and spells from their card deck, players will build camps and mana sanctums to fuel their efforts and destroy the enemy castle to win the match. Players can build their deck on the fly during each match, choosing different cards from available cards and unlocked tiers (additional tiers open during the match as more cards are played) to dictate the battle conditions or reactively adapt to what their opponent is throwing at them.
