The Castle is a board game published by Mayfair Games in 1981. It is an adventure game with a simple premise: the players are adventurers who must rescue a princess from a castle that is inhabited by monsters. The Wikipedia article on the game is brief and records no designer, player count or rules detail beyond that premise, so this entry stays equally modest. The game was reviewed by William A. Barton in issue 46 of the hobby magazine The Space Gamer, where he concluded that, if the price did not seem too high, it was a simple and playable game with few frills that readers might give a try. The reviewer treated it as a modest, low-frills title.
