Trivia[]
- Castle Gam was originally in the 2003 2D version of Bin Weevils. In 2007, it became a 3D area with 3D controls. There was a rapid lightning effect in the background. Minigames such as Flip Mulch, Squares and Konnect Mulch were located here.
- The Castle Gam interior housed a video game cinema. The headquarters of the SWS were once based underneath Flem Manor, but with the increasing WEB. threat, Gam thought it would be best to move the HQ into the depths of his own stronghold, Castle Gam. Guarded by massive stone walls (not to mention a dragon or two), the castle is virtually indestructible. It makes the perfect place to keep of the SWS secrets just that - secret. Previously the SWS HQ was located by clicking the left statue inside Flem Manor.
- The new HQ was built in secret by Rigg and his construction crew. They worked only at night, moving supplies into Castle Gam under cover of darkness. Colin the Dragon helped move huge boulders out of the underground cavern to make room for the Special Ops area. Kong Fu was one of Gam's first SWS agents. He runs the SWS Agent Training Room inside the Special Ops HQ, where new agents can train to become secret agents and unlock high scores with the Target Practice minigame. The minigame has buddy leaderboards.
- Gam was a Former Soldier and is the current Director of the Secret Weevil Service. The oldest of all the Bin Weevils always has a tale to tell about the good old days, and he'll ramble on for hours if you'll listen. From batting The Great Bin War to founding the Secret Weevil Service, Gam has led a majorly exciting life, and has no signs of slowing down. He was known to have been a Soldier in the Great Bin War, a large conflict. He earned two Medals for bravery, and took them home with him, his helmet and many scars. Gam eventually in his later years founded the Secret Weevil Service and established its base underneath Flem Manor, but later moved it to his enchanted Castle.
- Shortly after Bin Weevils relaunched in 2010, Castle Gam received a large makeover, transforming into a 2D room. The castle rooms remained more or less the same throughout the years apart from the SWS HQ, which was later redesigned in 2011 for the Special Ops missions arrival.
- The first SWS mission set at Castle Gam was The Lost Silver Knight. Players must find the golden key hidden around Castle Gam to unlock the ancient castle rooms filled with lore.
- Castle Gam is the home of Gam and his pet dragon. Castle Gam's Dungeons were explored in 2010, alongside the launch of SWS mission SWS missions Trouble At Castle Gam (Part 1) and Trouble At Castle Gam (Part 2). This mission is set at Castle Gam with several rooms and characters. The rooms contain several areas of the castle's deep dungeons alongside puzzles and mazes.
- Help fill the cauldron with a team of weevils at Castle Gam and make Colin the Dragon appear. Weevils can earn up to 500 Mulch by filling up the pot on left on the castle with goo. They can do this by jumping on the circles and working together. This is another team activity in the Bin.
- There is a game secret which involves two dragons appearing above the Castle Gam bridge entrance. These noble dragons guard Castle Gam and the SWS.
- Minigames at Castle Gam include Konnect Mulch and Flip Much. Mulch Shoot can also be accessed via the bridge on the left hand side of the room. These games are recommended for daily Mulch and XP.
- In 2013, Castle Gam was revamped slightly with new SWS decorations and gadgets. There was a metallic door placed at the entrance and hologram devices around the outside. Clicking on the hologram displayed SWS in the sky.
- The castle is one of the oldest areas of the Bin. It is filled with secrets, lore, treasure and history.
