In recent weeks we have been reviewing the best video game classics, and now that the news of the week has been the launch of the Age of Empires Castle Siege for Android, we have decided to enter fully into the field of Strategy games, starting with what is probably the most popular subgenre, that of online games in the style of the popular Clash of Clans. We leave you with a few of the most interesting titles that you can find to compete against other users and demonstrate the superiority of your armies, both in the App Store as in Google Play.
Clash of Clans
It is inevitable that this selection begins with the classic of Supercell, the game that is undoubtedly the great reference of this subgenre and that we have already mentioned: the Clash of Clans. We are sure, however, that we can tell you little about it that you do not know yet, because the chances that you have tried it, even if you are not particularly fond of strategy games, are quite high. In fact, if you have played almost any other game of this type, you can already get an idea of what this one offers us, because it has been he who has popularized the basic formula: develop the defenses of your base, raise an army , form alliances with other users, and plunder the bases of others, while we try to keep ours safe.
Age of Empires Castle Siege
Nor could the list be missing Age of Empires Castle Siege that, indeed, it is not an as-is version of the classic PC game for mobile devices, but a game in the purest Clash of Clans style based on the universe of that one. Do not expect, therefore, to relive your best moments with the game of Microsoft on your smartphones and tablets, but it is true that it can help you to quench your nostalgia a bit, although only to see you again choosing between Bretons, Teutons and others to raise your new kingdom, as long as you enjoy this type of game . Regarding the game mechanics, nothing that leaves too much of the basic formula that we outlined when talking about the Supercell classic, although here we can choose heroes with a greater prominence.
Boom Beach
Boom Beach It is one of the few titles that we are going to allow ourselves to keep in this year's selection, because it continues to be one of the most fun and addictive games of this type that we can find in this subgenre, something that cannot surprise us too much, of all anyway, thinking that it also bears the seal of Supercell. This can make you imagine that the game mechanics will change little compared to its great success, but the setting is very different and that does a lot to give it a very different flavor. And it is that in Boom Beach we will not only be able to enjoy developing a more modern army, with firearms and others, but also the battlefield will be tropical islands.
Transformers Earth Wars
If you want to try a game of this type with a more science fiction setting and, of course, if you are fans of the franchise Transformers, another of the titles that you can not stop trying is this Earth wars, with which you will be able to enjoy raising armies choosing from hundreds of robots, among which, of course, Optimus Prime is not lacking. Although, once again, the gameplay is more or less the same as in any game of this type, in this one we have the option to choose between two different sides, which is not only a wink for the fans, but also works also to give a little more thanks to the confrontations with other users and alliances.
Call of duty heroes
Another of the titles that have enjoyed more popularity in this field in recent times and that we could not stop including here is this Call of duty heroes. Undoubtedly, a good part of its appeal has been in being part of the Call of Duty franchise, but it must be recognized that it has not lacked its own charms with which to consolidate itself as one of the essential online strategy titles. It must be said in its favor, in addition, that at least it distinguishes itself a little more from others by incorporating some elements more typical of the games of action, thus honoring what one could expect from this franchise, with the possibility of taking control of some of our heroes and experiencing the battles first-hand as well.
Siegefall
We finish with an extra for those who have simply exploited the Clash of Clans to the limit and want something new but not too different, because here we do not even change the atmosphere too much, still in the field of medieval fantasy (although with a little less fantasy than in other similar titles). Although it is not particularly original in this sense and it has never been among the most popular either (something curious, bearing the stamp of Gameloft), it must be recognized that it is one of the highest-level games of the genre, with good graphics and quite a bit of strategic complexity.
