Clash of Clans has been a top strategy game for over a decade. We returned to see how it holds up today.
Base building and attacks
Planning a base layout and timing troop deployments is still deeply satisfying. Recent updates added new heroes and more ways to speed up progress.
Clan wars
Clan wars and the clan war league remain the heart of the game. A good, active clan makes all the difference.
Spending pressure
Upgrade timers are long at higher Town Hall levels. The Gold Pass helps, but patient players can progress for free.
What we liked
- Deep strategy
- Great clan features
- Regular updates
What could be better
- Long upgrade timers late game
- Steep learning curve for attacks
Our verdict
Still one of the best strategy games on Android, especially with friends. Rated 4.5 / 5.
