As you advance to later levels, new enemies appear with weapons like a tongue depressor battering ram. Initially, you only deal with unarmed infantry. A swipe of a stick figure sends them flying across the screen, a hard landing eliminating them from the battlefield. The game is played in waves, each level bringing an assortment of foes that are flung away from your domain using your finger.

We'd like to believe the aggressive stick figure foes that assault your castle are the result of some hardcore apocalyptic blast, but they're more a labour of love in the development of this clever casual title.
