Moorhuhn Knights & Castles

System: Nintendo Switch Release date: 08/01/2018

Finally, Moorhuhn strikes back! Get set, aim, fire...and never neglect your own cover. Fight against the AI, your friends...or your enemies! Pure Moorhuhn action!

Single-player

The game features an extensive 36 part campaign with challenging battles taking place in the Scottish Highlands, in an icy landscape and near lava-spewing volcanoes. Fit out the seat of your clan to build a mighty and prestigious fortress, and upgrade it continuously with better weapons and defence facilities.

Pursue the evil Clan Chief from one battle to another, and grow stronger and more powerful. You start out with a small shack, but you will soon be able to improve and expand each element of your residence. Eventually, you will become the lord of an extensive castle, able to withstand heavier attacks.

You can play the campaign battles as often as you wish, for an unlimited time.

Multiplayer – coming soon

Join the battlefield now, start building up your castle and developing the best strategy, and you will get a free Feature Pack with several multiplayer options in Autumn 2019.

Looting

Catch random opponents all around the world off-guard by attacking and stealing from them whenever you want. This feature is a real challenge for gamers who enjoy competing with real-life opponents as well.

Live multiplayer

Play fast, action-packed duels against your friends in real time. Just agree on a password, and you are ready to play. Fight for gold and collect as many crowns as possible. The crowns are the multiplayer reward, determining how high you climb up the leaderboard. Weekly and all-time rankings show who is the number one king in the Highlands.

Multiplayer mode requires an Internet connection, while single-player campaigns can be played offline.
