Free strategy guide for a classic MMORPG
Castle Pineapplia is a guide for World of Warcraft: Shadowlands developed by TacticalHorse. The objective of the game is to teach players about the 10 Castle Nathria bosses. While it is not a traditional game guide, it will help you with the different encounters you will have. It’s a great alternative to viewing the actual gameplay between a player and a boss; you’ll understand the mechanics of the raid without diminishing the thrill of your first encounter.
What is Castle Pineapplia?
Castle Pineapplia is a play on words on Castle Nathria. It’s a strategy guide that will help you learn everything you need to know about the mechanics of Castle Nathria. With this, you will get to prepare for the actual raid. The game’s graphics are a far cry from the vibrant and detailed environment of World of Warcraft, but it has everything you need to train for raid day.
Beginning with the characters, all 10 bosses are present but are reimagined as fruits: Fruitwing, Fruit Legion Generals, Sire Pineapplius, Sludgefruit. Vitamin Council. Lady Pine-nerva Darkfruit, Sun King’s Caramelization, Artificier Pin’Apl, Plantsman Altimor, and Tropical Destroyer. Second, the controls are the same as the ones in WoW. You can control your character using your keyboard. All your keys – except WASD – can attack.
As is tradition, WASD keys are used for movement. Only when you need to pause a game will you press on the spacebar. Lastly, the gameplay allows you to experience the various abilities of each character. This will (hopefully) allow you to take down bosses quicker during the actual raid. What is lacking in this game is the two dungeon difficulty settings: heroic and mythic. Perhaps this was not included to keep the excitement of the actual game.
Get ready for the big raid!
Castle Pineapplia is a practical way of preparing for the big raid in Shadowlands. For players that do not want to read the WoW guides, this game-slash-guide will give you a preview of what the bosses can do. It lacks the aesthetics and difficulty settings of the original game, but it is a fantastic teaching tool that you do not want to miss out on to gain an edge in battle.
