Collector interest

A vertical platformer with rotating levels, Castelian (published by Triffix on the US market) stays an overlooked yet distinctive curiosity. Its collector appeal rests on its rotating-tower design, rare on Game Boy, and on a scarcely present third-party publisher that makes the cart less common. No grail, but a piece sought by fans of offbeat platformers and small publishers.
