Trivia

  • Goblins are small, grotesque, monstrous creatures that appear in the folklore of multiple European cultures. First attested in stories from the Middle Ages, they are ascribed conflicting abilities, temperaments, and appearances depending on the story and country of origin, ranging from mischievous household spirits to malicious, bestial thieves. They often have magical abilities similar to a fairy or demon, such as the ability to shapeshift. Similar creatures include duendes, kobolds, leprechauns, and ghouls. In the German and Dutch language setting of the game, the Goblin Barrel's name translates to "Kobold Barrel". In the Spanish, Arabic, Thai, and Vietnamese language setting of the game, the Goblin Barrel's name translates to "Duende Barrel", "Ghoul Barrel", "Goblin Tank" and "Leprechaun Box" respectively. The Goblin Barrel is 1 of 17 cards associated with Goblins, with the others being Spear Goblins, Goblin Gang, Baby Goblins, Dart Goblin, Goblin Demolisher, Suspicious Bush, Goblin Cage, Goblin Hut, Goblin Giant, Goblin Curse, Goblin Drill, Goblin Machine, Party Rocket, Party Hut, Goblinstein, and of course, Goblins.
  • While not available as a spell in Clash of Clans, the Goblin Barrel may have inspired the Goblin Thrower building, which launches Goblin Barrels of Spear Goblins instead, another card which inspired something in that game.
  • The Goblin Barrel is 1 of 3 cards related to barrels, alongside the Skeleton Barrel and Barbarian Barrel.
  • The Goblin Barrel has the smallest radius out of all spells in the game, with a radius of 1.5 tiles.

  • The Goblin Machine's torso was created using an empty Goblin Barrel.
  • Its Star Level 3 Skin grants the Goblins a red mohawk similar to the Level 6 Goblin in Clash of Clans.
  • Another Goblin's leg can be seen sticking out of the Barrel on the card image.
