Castelian, which was developed by Triffix, is a fair attempt at a puzzle game. The concept is interesting but the weaker aspects of the game left a sour taste, specifically the controls, the rather high difficulty, and some other minor issues. This guide will help you for the most part avoid getting killed.

You're witnessing a typical sparkling, summer morning in downtown Jemmerville. Both suns have risen over the planet Centrus, where summer, of course, is the only season. And it is here, on the island's precious gem-deposits are talked about throughout the Triangulum galaxy, and they're the envy of almost every life-form in this corner of the universe.

Julius was asleep in his terraineum when the holographic intercom sprayed out its message. It was the president of Domoloco and Sons inc.: "Julius we have a serious situation. The governor has reported that 7 alien towers have surrounded the island. If one more appears, the island will be completely enclosed. The naviports are almost cut off. The hyperfreighters are trapped…nothing is getting in or out."

"I've given the governor my personal promise that Domoloco and Sons would handle these towers... No one knows what they are or where they came from but I want them demolished! Now that's not too difficult a mission, is it?" Julius slowly opened his eyes and found that the president's personal hologram – not the one of his secretary – was still activated: "Wake up, Julius, and topple that tower!"

As Julius started to say something, the hologram began to dissolve as quickly as it had appeared.
