I have played this game lots on mobile and strongly recommend playing on there. The only reason why I say that is because you can play games online and play them over time.

Simple, yet addictive. Usually I am not much into strategy games but this one strikes the right balance in features and gameplay. Easy to find yourself lost in a hour long battle and just relax. Also spent countless hours playing the mobile version back in the day

This game really doesn't get the recognition it deserves. It's a fun game especially when with friends and allows you to pick a tribe that suits your play style and strategies. It isn't necessarily the most fun by yourself but in a group with others it can be a really good time.

A very fun game. I'm originally playing this on mobile for a few years now. I highly recommend this turn-based strategy game for anyone who wants to have a relaxed, play-at-your-own-pace, type of game (depends on the game mode of course). My only feedback is we should have one account regardless of device, instead of multiple accounts per device. This way, we can have one ā€œpresenceā€ for ranking and stats. Purchases are fine if they are separate, no issue there, and it provides support for the developers. Other than that, definitely a game that you should have installed in every platform that you have.

It's polytopia, but now on a computer. Absolutely amazing. Polytopia is a top-down turn-based strategy game. It's kind of like if Civilization games were designed for mobile- but, despite simplicity, Polytopia has some surprisingly complex strategies involved. The DLC tribes are unique, but not very overpowered (there is definitely a non-zero amount of "overpoweredness", but it depends on perspective).
