Ratings and reviews

A good war sim with a decent tutorial that's easy to lesrn. You have to manage your overall clan resources, which are kept simple and manageable, as well as build armies & fight battles. Especially early on, you can't do it all - you have to make difficult choices to prioritize. Battles have good tactical maneuvering too and the enemy is the right amount of tough. After you get on a roll for it can get a little repetitive once you can finally be good at everything, but it stays fun even then.

Best strategy game of 2019, and I've only played 2 missions... Perfect phone strategy game. I got no sleep last night playing it. Really plays a lot like the first Total War: Shogun. With updated graphics and phone interface. A perfect balance of strategy and tactical gameplay. The option to opt-out of information gathering alone deserves a 5 star. Gameplay, graphics, all around i love this game. Long time total war gamer, and this takes me back, while still moving forward.

Solid mechanics, but lack of variety in campaigns. As a mobile strat game, this is well done. The R-P-S style unit balance is great, battles are engaging, you actually have to think about movement in battle and the map. The terrain is well made so fights are interesting but still quick. BUT, economy and campaigns are repetitive. Do a few of the "Rise of Clans" ones and you've seen it all. Rebellions should create rebel factions to fight. More varied clan goals and maps for later cams needed!
