About the Game

PLAY THE DEMO NOW

Try Catapulteers online with friends. Haul ridiculous ammo, load the giant catapult, and see if your crew can stop the Troll. If you enjoy the chaos, wishlist the full game.

A giant Troll is approaching the kingdom, hating castles, people, and, most importantly, catapults! You are the Catapulteers: cursed knights, loose helmets, borrowed armor, and the last working siege engine in the fortress. Load the catapult, fire whatever you can find, and bring the Troll down. 

ANYTHING CAN BE AMMUNITION

Proper ammunition is gone. Improvisation is mandatory. Physics is merciless.

Carry cannonballs, crates, giant bells, cheese, pumpkins, barrels, furniture, livestock, suspicious machinery, and anything else that fits in the bucket. Some objects are heavy and bulky. Some are fragile. Some explode when you touch them wrong. In an emergency, consider using yourself as ammo!

LOSE YOUR HEAD, KEEP FIGHTING

Your head, your rules. You are not exactly alive, and your head is not exactly attached. Hop into a suit of armor (maybe borrow one from a friend!) to get stuff done. Help your body-less friends by carrying their heads to armor suits. Just don't get too... carried away.

THE CASTLE IS A DISASTER ZONE

Each map is a mess of lifts, bridges, ladders, traps, shortcuts, haunted corners, and bad architecture.

Jump, push, stack, roll, drag, body-block, and improvise your way to better ammunition. Sometimes a chicken is a tool. Sometimes a gelatinous blob is a safety device. 

THE TROLL FIGHTS BACK

The Troll is not waiting politely. It throws rocks, destroys stockpiles, shakes the fortress. The castle itself is also full of residents with poor boundaries.

Fail fast. Respawn badly. Catapult better!

CAMPAIGN, CHAOS, AND COSMETICS

Unlock new maps, game difficulties, challenges, and cosmetic rewards in a campaign that chronicles the story of Trolls hating Catapults (for a damn good reason!)
