Castle V Castle is a snappy minimalist card game with robots, witches, and sentient doomer signage
I can't be certain, but the music for Castle V Castle sounds very much like it was made on an old Roland TR-808 drum machine or equivalent plug-in.

That's actually quite fitting, because this minimalist strategy game has the rhythms of a call-and-response rap battle. That's something you could say for all I-go-you-gos to an extent, but the bellicose back and forth here is especially sizzling, snappy, and scintillating. (The game music is very different from the trailer music.) Read more
