A Castle in Your Pocket

About the game

The wizard Pereł mixed up two spells and turned a castle into a map. Fela, Odo, Runo and Berta wait in its rooms, while Klapek, a friendly dragon, sleeps in the cellar. Secure his door before guiding the residents outside. Two large wings fold underneath the map to change the active bridges. Rooms and character positions stay visible. Move residents, carry a seal and manage a shared budget of twenty actions. Four printed diagrams define every connection. No origami skills or precise paper alignment are needed; state tokens can replace folding. A standalone cooperative puzzle for 2–4 children aged 7–11, without a facilitator. Gradual hints and a supportive wizard ending complete the adventure if the action budget runs out. All materials are in Polish and play is entirely offline. Prototype 0.1.0. Intended play time of 35–50 minutes and preparation of 15–25 minutes after reading, excluding printing, remain estimates. Source review, logic simulations and file checks have been completed. Target-audience playtests, physical printing and independent preparation are pending.
