Castle Blocks - Part 2 - Crafting with Savvy

 

      After my previous experiments with castle blocks I decided to build the Midday Estate, maybe an entire house made out of the various blocks would be cool. When I got to my new home I began exploring, I didn’t like the house out front much so I tore it down, picked up all the pieces and started from scratch. I found that what is supposed to be a very simple process could become quite frustrating if things don’t line up just right. Nevertheless, there is something amazing about building a house exactly how you want it to be. Oh, you want a tower 6 levels high? You got it!

Castle Blocks - Part 1 - Crafting with Savvy

     

      In previous articles I have mentioned castle blocks, at first I wasn't sure about them. The possibilities are really cool but they seem to lack the personality that I was getting from using the tablet/marker combo. However, I decided that it was unfair to judge the newest items without giving them a chance first. Most of the recipes are fairly cheap and mainly use reagents that are easily accessible, which is nice. The pieces fit together with ease where as the markers had to be arranged in a certain way to form an extra room. Unfortunately the walls can not be placed at a diagonal and there are only two different styles.
