The difference is that CtC gives credit to Castle Clout on the title screen, and the makers of Castle Clout gave their permission to the devs of CtC to borrow from them. Rovio did not do that. At all.

When you say that its like saying Canabalt ripped off Robot unicorn attack (despite the fact that Canabalt came first). they are in the same genres.

Actually, it's like saying Robot Unicorn Attack ripped off Canabalt, which it did. The difference is that RUA was
free.

Angry birds took a similar idea and added onto it various things. First off does CTC have the something like Triangle bird? nope. Does CTC have a ability to fire from a slingshot. Nope. what about the boomerang balls CTC had...wait They never had those ether.

Those aren't major differences, though. They're surface changes on top of identical base gameplay mechanics. It's like saying if I took Tetris, changed the graphics to be logs added a couple differently shaped blocks into the mix and called it "Perturbed Lumberjacks," that it's no longer a ripoff of Tetris.
