Game overview
Castel game is a one-tap flyer: tap to keep the bird up, stop tapping and it drops, and the pillars leave a gap barely wider than the bird itself. Its only real content is your own attention span, since the failure is always a lapse rather than a difficulty spike, and new birds unlock as a reason to have another go after the one that got away.
This title is best suited to players who want a demanding one-tap flying challenge.
