If you’ve ever dreamt of owning a medieval castle, it’s time to wake up… the drawbridge to Hustle Castle has just been lowered. In this game, you’re the master in charge of building your dwelling, defending it from attackers and looking after your subjects: feed them, give them tasks to do and make sure they’re generally doing well. All of that doesn’t happen for free though: you’ll need some resources. And that’s where things really get interesting.
The easiest way to secure those resources? Well, it involves robbing your fellow players. Don’t be so shocked, you’re in the Middle Ages after all! But if that’s really not your style, there are also more civilised ways of growing your stockpile and becoming self-sustaining.
If going autonomous sounds appealing, just make sure you take very good care of your subjects’ happiness levels. When they’re unhappy, they’ll end up procrastinating and your castle will fall to pieces. So, to keep the dream alive, here are some tips to help you really get to grips with this whole medieval thing.
Fight bravely
Victories in battles are a huge factor in determining the in-game happiness of you and your subjects. Make every fight count.
Do your house (or castle) keeping
Every positive change you make in your castle will bring a touch of happiness. Whether it’s a new room or some training for your peeps, there’s always an opportunity to make things better.
Mind your dwellers
Sometimes a wish bubble will appear above their heads; if you pop it in time, their wish will be granted. But miss it, and they’ll feel neglected and upset.
Check in once in a while
Your dwellers will appreciate the attention you give them so say hi to keep the atmosphere upbeat.
And with a premium account, your dwellers will be totally happy. So happy, in fact, that they’ll produce 20 per cent more resources while the subscription lasts.
It seems it’s not that difficult to make people happy. At least not in Hustle Castle!
