The briefing

About this game

Crystal Castles is an Atari action arcade game starring Bentley Bear. Players collect gems throughout trimetric-projected castles while avoiding enemies that pursue both the character and the treasure.

The game is notable for featuring an actual ending and advance warp zones, distinguishing it from many contemporary arcade titles that continued indefinitely, reached a kill screen, or restarted from the first level.
