Being able to paint my own characters in a fun game, which entertained me so much back then thanks to it's coop-mode was reason enough for me to get back to the knight-action!

The combat can be easy to learn yet it's really unique, with incredible mechanics that can be tricky to learn and do in battle sometimes but also satisfying at the same time.

The art style is incredible, even without the DLC, it's a comfortable comical unique art style that's inspired by the 2000's newgrounds era.

Though oftentimes crude and to the point, Castle Crashers is easily one of the most fun multiplayer experiences out there.
Story
Players who bring up Story mostly praise it.
19 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Atmosphere, story, it all balances together and even the money system is great.. it feels very well thought out, you never build up an excess and you're always spending it on stuff.
