Bugs.
Im really annoyed because I have to rewrite my review after very quickly checking something in castle doombad so now I gotta start with the bad and have no good in my review, I cant even have my statement on the general gameplay now because Im lazy. There are so many bugs in this game that it might just be unbeatable, from enemys breaking the laws of physics to a completely unbeatable level because of ninjas. Enemys might fall or fly off screen due to game features that youd suspect would function normally, sometimes they no clip far underground and become unseeable meaning you have to start over your progress. There are straight up impossible missions because the game cant compute the fact that you completed the dang mission such as 1 trap or doomkin for each floor, I tried 1 trap or doomkin per floor and soloing an entire level with a singular loomkin and it just doesnt do anything. And about the unbeatable level, the beach level 04 is quite literally impossible due to ninjas and I got no clue if other stages have this problem. Apparantly ninjas cant swim with all that gear so they just sit under the “castle” (beach house) just floating like idiots and not swimming towards the ladders which they are supposed to use to come up, so not only cant they kill you but you cant kill them.

Glitchy but gets fixed
Edit: there are still some glitches to be worked out but the game is working better now!! Thank you!
Some levels carry on without ending even though all heroes are defeated — so far level 3 in slaycation and level 8 in the rocket. Still love the game overall!

Finally this game!
I love it so much, just keep playing yayaya
Restarting the round
When the wacky tube man shocks the knight or any other enemy, they fall through the map. The game thinks the enemy is alive so it prevents the player from continuing the level. Plz fix the problem so I don’t have to ever restart my game.

Hello! I just wanted to let you know that there is a new version that will fix this if you update. So sorry for the issue, but thank you for taking the time to share!
Wacky tube man
WTM is very useful in all situations and gives me crowns, but, whenever it shocks a hero, it can sometimes glitch out the enemy. Like let’s just say a hero goes down a ladder then gets shocked,and then glitches and goes down more floors. Sometimes go underground then I to replay the lvl over and over again until it doesn’t glitch. But anyways, I can finally enjoy playing this on mobile instead of asking my mom to go inside of the Tesla lol.

Loved the original, buggy re-release
Update:
After the update, a lot of the bugs I mentioned have been resolved. Only other things I have seen are enemies just walking over gaps sometimes instead of jumping and mostly graphical issues. Overall feels great to play again and glad they were able to fix the bugs quickly!
Original:
I played the original Castle Doombad more than most games by a long shot. The re-release is still really fun but it’s a buggy mess. I’d say 20% of the time I can’t finish a mission because of enemies stuck in a wall or some other glitch. The fourth mission of the beach chapter straight up glitches every time. Doomkins bug out on floor traps, enemies get frozen in random spots, and more random glitches. I rated it high because I’m really glad the game is back, but wow please fix the bugs.

We're truly sorry about the launch issues! We're doing our best to resolve problems as quickly as possible, and there's an app update with most of the issues you listed fixed and available now. I really appreciate you letting us know, thank you and apologies again!
Great game, small glitches
Great game. Son and I love it. Underground Lair level 11 stops after the first wave ; this occurred a few times in the underground but right now we can’t get past 11 at all. The other glitches I just restarted.
Otherwise enjoy the different traps from the Tesla release, which was hardly as glitchy as the iPad. But enjoy the additional features on the iPad.

Beautiful Wave of Nostalgia
I truly miss this game a lot and happy your studio revived it from its tomb. With that being said, it’s pretty buggy. I like completing stuff in orders, so after I had enough trophies to beat levels 23-25 on the first chapter, my phone crashes everytime after the second wave of enemies on level 25. Also on level 3 of Summer Slaycation, the two ninjas miss the jump onto the platform, and walk around in the water, making the level unbeatable, but good for minionmaxxing. Overall beautiful launch to me. CASTLE DOOMBAD IS BACK!! 🥳🎉🎉

Great Game, Missing Minions!!
Tell me!! Where did the healing and zap minions go! How am I supposed to stop these pesky HEROES from invading my (rightfully) kidnapped princess with only a quarter of my minions at my disposal!! (It’s a great game, get it, big bug patch only two hours ago as of posting)
Love this game
I used to play this game all the time way back, and now it’s still amazing
