While collecting gems, there are a number of enemies that try to stop Bentley and/or collect the gems for themselves.
Gems are collected by walking over them, and a bonus is given upon collection of the last gem. The player can also skip some castles and acquire additional lives and points by using secret warps activated by making Bentley Bear jump at special locations.Ī trackball and jump button are used for controlling Bentley Bear’s motions. When all gems in a castle have been collected, a tune of the Nutcracker Suite is played, and the player moves on to the next castle. The three-letter initials of the player with the highest score are used to form the first level’s castle structure. Each of the 37 trimetric-projected castles consists of a maze of hallways filled with gems and bonus objects and also includes stairs, elevators and tunnels that the player can use as shortcuts. Crystal Castles is one of the first arcade action games with an ending, instead of continuing indefinitely, looping, or ending in a kill screen, and to contain advance warp zones.Ĭrystal Castles has nine levels with four castles each, and a tenth level which features a single castle - the clearing of which ends the game. The player controls Bentley Bear who has to collect gems located throughout trimetric-projected rendered castles while avoiding enemies, some of whom are after the gems as well.
