App Review : Clash Royale

By June 27, 20162 Comments

Clash Royale is a Real Time Strategy Game (RTS) where you battle people in an arena style game play. It is a spin off of the clash of clans game and uses the same characters. The difference between these two games is that one focuses on base construction and the other is total combat oriented.

Aside from just combat the game allows one to view others matches, join clans (give and receive cards with in those clans), and practice in a practice arena. If you are looking for a fast paced game with a lot of replay value then this is the game for you.

For the most part the app is very easy to use. All the buttons are placed in visible areas and the game is self explanatory. my only gripe is that the back button sends you outside of the app when it feels like it should just send you to the home page. A few times I’ve caught myself almost exiting the app but then realizing that I had to either swipe to get to the other page or just actually press the page button.

The game is one that you can easily come back to. unlike other games it allows you to play nonstop, each time with different people. Although the game does stop giving you rewards after benging on matches but this is not a problem because this just gives you time to develop your skills and techniques.

The game also allows you to develop 3 different “decks” so that’s you can customize your battle experience. Each battle is set with a person who is in a similar bracket as you so for the most part it is a fair match. What keeps you coming back will be the chests, they have free chests through out the day, chests you win from battles and crown chest you open from winning battles. The chests you win from battles have a time delay so this makes you have to wait but it’s worth it because you get new cards, coins and gems. All of this adds up to a game I can’t put down and an app I keep opening.

The actual game play is fun and addicting. Due to each player having totally different decks anything can happen in a match. The app tries to balance out your experience  so if you keep winning it raises you a level and you battle higher level people, but if you keep losing you drop a level so you can basically build up your confidence and win a few battles.

The battles are so unpredictable: you could win in 20 seconds, lose in 10 or go into over time in an all out brawl. This unpredictable experience is what makes it so fun, it’s drives competition.

The graphics are amazing. everything is crisp and appealing to the eyes, you can see everything from clouds moving across the arena, shadows of the characters and arrows being shot at towers. The graphics is also what boosted the replay value for me because I actually felt like I was battling. The first time I saw my little goblin trio rush out and start stabbing the skeletons I fell in love with the game. Even when you throw spells at people from across the arena you can see the change in depth as it hurtles in the air then lands on a tower or unexpected horde of enemies. Clash Royale is a well made game.
