About this game

Other characters (20 in total) are later unlocked or discovered through the course of the game.
Although the game can be played by a single player, up to four player can fight together on the same screen in the cooperative game modes, both offline and online.
Some elements in the levels can only be activated or interacted with by specific characters.
Starting with basic moves, defeating enemies fills up an experience meter (up to 99 levels) that provides skill points.
These can be attributed to strength, magic, defence and agility and consequently unlock a large amount of new moves and combos.
Basic movement includes jumping, a light and a strong attack, blocking and magic.
While playing, there are 40 different weapons to collect (included ranged ones such as a bow), each with different attributes.
Only one can be wielded at a time, but all discovered weapons are stored at a blacksmith.
The different levels are shown on a map where the player can move around and revisit locations.
Some are locked until the player is strong enough.
There are also shopping areas where life potions can be stocked, along with new weapons.
Characters can also move around on mounts such as lizards, when they are captured.
Another element is the animal orbs.
They become available through the game and acts as companions that assist the player, through attacks, defence or special abilities such as digging up hidden items in the levels.
As in all games by The Behemoth, there is a focus on wacky humour in the game design and animations.
When playing together with other players, after defeating a boss the knights need to fight each other to win the princess' kiss.
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks Castle Crashers for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Castle Crashers to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2008.

No market sales have been tracked yet for Castle Crashers — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
