Ready for some medieval mayhem? In Kingdom Clash, you can survey the chaos of a tiny war packed between tiny troops – but start from the humblest beginnings.

What we love: Kingdom Clash is an auto-battler, so you can watch your army smash into another. Outside that, though, you’ll find extra flair. Defeating enemies earns coins, which you use to recruit new soldiers, and identical units can be merged to create stronger ones. Do you go for power or sheer numbers?

Quick tip: Well-placed heroes make battles much easier to win, helping you push through the campaign faster. And once you’ve levelled up a bit, join a clan! This adds a lot of fun to the experience, as well as helping you develop your strategy and your troops.

Meet the creator: Dubai–based AI Games FZ has published more than 200 titles, but its biggest hits by far are Worms Zone.io (a reimagining of the classic mobile game Snake) and Stack Ball. Both are physics-flavoured casual games, and you can see the DNA at play in Kingdom Clash.
