Game of Warrior

Release the troops and watch them fight automatically - that's the rhythm of Game of Warrior from the first wave onward. This is a Strategy TD game with a magical-world twist: you're not just placing towers, you're hiring mighty soldiers and readying spears while the last scraps of human civilization try to claw back territory from an evil alliance of kingdoms.

One match you're the wall, releasing units to defend the fortress against whatever's charging it. The next, you're on the attack, sending titans to smash enemy walls and towers until the siege breaks. Either way the fighting plays out on its own once you commit your troops, so your job is picking the right upgrades and abilities before the horn sounds.

It runs free in your browser on desktop, Android or iOS, no download needed, so you can jump into the dark empire's last stand whenever you've got a few minutes. If you'd rather line up a different kind of fight afterward, Hazmob FPS: Online Shooter and Zombie Survival Shooter are both waiting in the Action games section.

Your job is to either hold the fortress or break the enemy's, depending on the mode. Release your troops and they fight automatically, so the real work happens before the clash: hiring warriors, upgrading them, and choosing which abilities to trigger mid-battle.

There's no complicated key list here - you send units out, use abilities when the moment calls for it, and let the battle play out. Keep upgrading your soldiers and defenses between waves, since a stronger warrior wins fights your last-tier troops couldn't.

Tip: don't dump every unit at once. Feed troops in as the fight develops so you always have reinforcements ready when the enemy pushes back.
