Attack Na! 5 Reasons Why We Love Clash of Clans
Clash of Clans (CoC) tournaments are mushrooming left and right, with Smart and Philippine eSports Organization’s Philippine Clash 2015 ringing out the loudest. What makes this mobile app so enticing to players all over country?
Fun
You have to admit, this is the closest you can get to an RPG game that’s handheld and free. Plus watching your village and troops get upgraded with every attack is a great feeling as well.
Mobility
With the constant rise of smartphone users, gamers are looking for applications that they can take anywhere and not have to be stuck to a desktop.
Simple yet complicated
CoC’s concept is pretty simple: fortify your village by buying defences using your resources. You can gain resources by attacking other villages. The complicated part falls under the strategy behind your attacks and the priorities you make in creating a strong village.
Constant Updates
What makes Clash of Clans stand out from other games is the updates that make it more interesting (new troops, new spells and upgraded abilities) giving it an edge to other mobile games like Candy Crush where the challenge ends with every level. There’s always something to look forward to with Clash of Clans, making it a little unpredictable at times.
Interactive
Probably the most innovative concept in this mobile game is the social aspect that gives gamers the opportunity to interact with other gamers from numerous places across the country. Previously, players could chat with gamers from the global chat room but with a recent update, it was simply limited to your region or country. It still offers a wide range of people to meet, giving this mobile game an edge compared to other applications.
To show how popular this game has become, we have ClashCon happening in Helsinki, Finland this October 24: a first of its kind event where all the dedicated clashers from around the world will convene to battle it out in Supercell’s home turf.
From the days when Clash of Clans was once referred as casual mobile application, the game has evolved to include a very dedicated fanbase and even serious competitive elements. Whatever changes are rolled out by Supercell, we can expect this game to be relevant in the mobile gaming genre for years to come.
