CastleVille is a defunct social network game made by Zynga's Dallas studio and was released in November 2011.

[3] Set in a medieval world,[4] the game allows players to build their land up with castle elements, and craft armor, art and trade items.

[4] A new reputation system was developed to encourage players to be social within the game in order to unlock new items and actions such as trading.

[7] It was the Dallas studio's first release under Zynga management, and the first social game to feature its own orchestral and choir soundtrack.

[11] Storytelling features were brought from The Pioneer Trail, while CityVille and FarmVille provided the inspiration for city building and self-expression, respectively.
