“Controlling or denying enemy gold-generating villages on the battlefield is the key to victory,” they explain. “You must decide when to hold onto your villages, enabling you to deploy stronger, more expensive troops, when to advance taking the enemy’s villages, and when to strategically retreat.”

As for the future, 5th Cell say they plan to leave early access after around six months to a year. “We plan to continue our work on balancing existing units, adding new units, captains and other battlefields. And additionally hope to delve into new game modes.”

You can find Castlehold overon Steamwhere it’s free to play. 5th Cell say it will remain free after early access as well.
