Sand Castle Roof is the twenty-sixth level in the game Castle Crashers. On Insane Mode, this could potentially be a tricky level due to the fact that the Saracens spam their Splash Attacks which deal up to the 300s, and so do the 2 Royal Guards in the last wave before the volleyball match.
Walkthrough[]
Enemy Waves[]
Along the top of the sand castle, the player will be attacked by archers from both sides. Note that the arrows shot by these archers are more powerful than most. The archers then retreat, leaving only the swordsmen. Take out the baddies and continue to the right. The castle's pillars and walls can obstruct the player's view as they battle.
- Note: Magician enemies are marked with a
icon.
Wave 1: 2 Saracens 
Wave 2: 2 Saracens
Wave 3: 2 Saracens
Wave 4: 3 Saracens
Wave 5: 1 Saracens , 2 Royal Guards
Volleyball Match[]
At the end of the level, the player is challenged to a game of Volleyball by three Saracens and a Beefy Saracen. If the player wins, they will be given a Map that allows them to magically blow away the dust covering up the remaining levels in the game. Losing simply restarts the game for another attempt.
Weapons[]
- The Curved Sword is found by digging it up with the Shovel. Very hard to miss the X mark.
- Can be dropped by the many Saracens, as well as Royal Guards in the level.
Animal Orbs[]
There are no animal orbs to be found on this level.
Notes[]
Sand Castle Roof[]
- If the archers are attacked before they go off-screen, they will die in one hit, yielding extra money or food pickups.
Volleyball Game[]
- This is the only spot where the Volleyball Game can be played on the Xbox version or the PC version.
- The Saracens in the volleyball match cannot be killed, although they can be stunned or knocked down.
- The line blocks any Arrows and attacks from trespassing and attacking the Saracens on the other side, however, any Splash Magic besides the Necromancer's can pass the line and hit them if they are close enough. This makes it very easy as they get knocked on the ground
- The Boomerang can pass through the center line and stun the Saracens.
- It seems that if either team hits the ball on the center line, the other team gets a point.
- Some of the easiest characters to beat the game with are the Industrialist or the Fencer since their buzzsaw magic attack is not blocked by the center line and knocks over the Saracens. The Orange Knight and the Blacksmith's Splash Magic can also pass the center line.
- Since the game is 2D, one's perception may be obscured causing them to miss, following the ball's shadow should help.
- One strategy is to hit the ball in to the air with a normal attack, and follow it up with a Jump Spin Combo. This not only sends the ball higher into the air, making it harder for the Saracens to hit it, but the spin attack can often knock down one or more Saracens, causing them to miss the ball.
- With Dragonhead, Install Ball, or Pelter equipped, when the Saracen hands the map to the player, these animal orbs will attack the Saracen.
Glitches[]
More Players Glitch[]
- In a very rare occurrence, within a screen moving movement, the player can bypass several waves leading up to the Volleyball Game. If done right, the Saracens and even Royal Guards will participate in the game. However, the enemies will be stuck by the visitor side and the game will consequently softlock.

Trivia[]
- The Traitor achievement can be unlocked by beating the volleyball game on Sand Castle Roof as the Saracen playable character.
- When the player loses (any number besides 10)-10, a tuba will play with a crowd offscreen laughing at the player while they can audibly be heard saying "Fail!" in unison, all the while the NPC enemies will laugh at the player. Once this is over, the Volleyball Game will restart.
