About this game

In Castle Warrior, the evil magician Zandor poisons the good king, leaving the prince to defeat him and obtain an antidote. The game is viewed directly from behind the prince, with movement always directed forward.

Across six levels, the prince moves left and right, jumps, swings his sword, dodges obstacles, and faces boss enemies. Challenges include defeating a dragon and navigating a level in a canoe.
