Age of Sparta

Developed by Gameloft, Age of Sparta mixes elements from two classic strategy games for PC: Age of Empires, and Heroes of Might and Magic.

Battle Glory

Battle Glory is a lot like the super-hit Clash of Clans (we'll talk more about it a bit later), but it features modern buildings and troops, including riflemen, grenadiers, tanks and fighter planes.

Boom Beach

Boom Beach is also a title with a gameplay similar to that of Clash of Clans, but, unlike Battle Glory, it's actually developed by the company that made Clash of Clans: Supercell. In Boom Beach, you're in a tropical archipelago, you have an island of your own that needs to be defended, and you command troops too scout the surroundings and attack enemy bases. Single player and multiplayer modes (including co-op missions) are included.
