Defend Your Evil Lair in Castle Doombad: Free To Slay, Now Out on Android!

Castle Doombad is back! The tower defense strategy game, originally released in 2014, returns as Castle Doombad: Free To Slay on Android, courtesy of Grumpyface Studios and Yodo1.

Grumpyface, known for hits like Steven Universe: Attack the Light and Teeny Titans, initially planned a single remake. However, they've split the project into two: Free To Slay for mobile and Castle Doombad Classic, a remastered version with updated content, launching on Nintendo Switch and Steam later this year. A sequel, Castle Doombad 2: Muahaha!, is also in development.

Unleash Your Inner Evil in Castle Doombad: Free To Slay!

Embrace your villainous side! Build a wicked lair and defend it against heroic do-gooders using traps and minions as your weapons. This isn't your typical tower defense game.

Check out the game trailer below!

The free-to-play game (with ads and optional in-app purchases) features 70 stages, daily challenges, endless modes, over 30 unlockable and upgradeable traps, and over 100 collectible items. A cosmetic system, "spoils," lets you customize your Dark Lord and his lair with evil artifacts. Pair these with equippable "Baddie Bonus" perks.

A new roguelite mode, "Dr. Lord Evilstein's Roguevenge," adds randomly generated castle layouts and collectible Nightmares, granting unique powers and abilities. Download Castle Doombad: Free To Slay from the Google Play Store now!
