Our second demo was at an elementary school Dodgeball fundraiser supporting autism awareness. There we simply said it shot Dodgeballs for the most part. When kids seemed interested we went more in depth talking about different obstacles and castles but usually they were happy enough with us saying it shot Dodgeballs and us explaining how it did it. The third demo was more informal and was at the school play which we sell snacks at. There were quite a bit of kids in our school who were turned off by the medieval aspect and didn't really understand the idea of Castle defense in fact they really just wanted to play catch with it. We gained a member that day.
But again I'm just one voice among many thousands. Based on the crazy lack of complaints they did well this year.
So what's next year's theme space or wild west?

My 2 second game explanation was also "it shoots dodge balls into a tower" because it takes much too long to explain the theme at those types of events.
