Castle Master is an action/adventure game featuring scaling and rotating polygon graphics. The game requires the player, through a first person view, to explore Castle Eternity in order to save their twin. There are riddles on many of the castle walls, which give gameplay hints. There are also keys and pentacles hidden in various locations for the player to collect.

This is an incomplete list of bugs in the original implementation, indicating if the bug is already fixed (✓) or not fixed (✗) in ScummVM:
✗ Once the character is selected (prince or princess), it cannot be changed (ZX Spectrum only):
1. Start a new game
2. Select one character
3. End game
4. The game will start without allowing you to change the character
