Catapults are the "non plus ultra" in terms of crashing castles and bodies. They are entirely built up of wood and need rock items to be used. The catapult fires three small rocks at a time and is very deadly. It is (so far) the largest of the constructions in the game and is built by a builder. To build it just place the pieces in a 4 x 3 (horizontal x vertical) square and when the catapult is finished it is turned the right way.

To shoot, press and hold the [E]-key. The longer you hold the further you shoot. The shots are aimed with mouse. Release the key to shoot.

  • Fired rocks will destroy ladders instantly, making catapults an effective counter against sky bridges.
