I'm a game designer!

As for Clash of Clans, since it is just a mobile/tablet game, there are many devices available for experience.

After all, it saves space.

When players opened the game, they learned about the background of the game through the small animation at the beginning: the game tells the story of countless battles between tribes for land and resources, and all players have to do is to protect their own villages (tribes), build training camps, barracks, city walls and other buildings to strengthen their army and protect their villages.

At the same time, they can also invade other players' villages and plunder more resources to develop themselves and make their villages stronger.

There are many types of buildings in the game.

As the level of your base camp (main base) gradually increases, more and more things can be built, and each building can be upgraded.

Take the city wall as an example.

The city wall can be upgraded to level 10, but!

However, when the city wall is built, it is built in small sections, and the same is true for upgrading. If you want to completely surround your own buildings, you need to spend a lot of resources!

The most basic building besides the base camp is of course the [Construction Worker's Hut]. This building will provide workers, and only with workers can other buildings be built.

And the resources are divided into three types: gold coins; holy water, and dark heavy oil.

Gold coins are used to build some basic buildings/basic arms, and holy water is a necessary material for some upgraded/advanced arms and buildings. As for dark heavy oil, it is an extremely rare material. If your village wants to develop to the later stage, it needs a lot of black oil to support it.

Although this is just a mobile game, there are many types of arms, armies, and defense facilities in it, and there are also a variety of potion props. A careful player counted and found that there are 29 types of arms alone!

The role and ability of each type of arms are different. There are special ones for attacking city walls, some are used as meat shields to attract firepower, some mages for AOE damage, and a variety of air units, there are nurses to help their troops replenish blood, and there are special ones for plundering resources, etc.

However, the early stage of the game is still very simple, because there are not many buildings and arms that can be built at the first level, so it is easy for players to figure out the early gameplay, and they are also very clear about the functions of some basic buildings.

In addition, the game provided for testing was actually adjusted by Fang Yun. The resource collection speed is five times faster than the official version, because this is a game that requires"going online to collect vegetables" every day. You need to go online at several specific times every day to collect supplies, and then use the stored supplies to upgrade buildings and plunder other people's tribes.

In essence, this game does not take up most of the players' time, but only utilizes the players' fragmented time, but this mechanism is not very suitable for testing, so Fang Yun adjusted the speed of collecting supplies during the test.

The players participating in the test quickly got started, building buildings, upgrading city walls, building soldiers, and upgrading...

Soon, their first army was built, and their own protection was almost done. Some built two full circles of walls for their own homes, some built many arrow towers, and some developed more radically and even made a few mortars!

Then, the players basically understood the construction aspect, and then came another core gameplay of the game: looting!

There is a looting option in the game. After clicking it, the IDs of several players with the same/similar base camp as yours will be randomly refreshed. Clicking it will allow you to see the construction of the other party's village. If you feel that the other party's defense has flaws or is relatively bad, you can directly choose to attack.

So, players began to experience this looting gameplay. Some people just threw a group of barbarians (the most basic type of soldiers) and then attacked casually, while others considered the combination of some types of soldiers. Barbarians cooperated with several goblins (once the city wall was broken, the goblins would rush straight to the opponent's resource building to plunder resources. They are the fastest type of soldiers in COC to plunder resources.) to attack.

Some people thought more deeply. Although these people were in the early stage of the game, they still studied the combination of arms and carefully studied the weak points of the enemy's defense. They started from the weak points, so that they could achieve greater results.

Some people come just for resources. They find the section of the wall closest to the other party's resource storage location, and directly drop the barbarians. After the barbarians break through, they release the goblins, and then retreat after plundering all the resources.

The various gameplays deeply attracted these players who came to experience it. Some people are obsessed with construction, some are obsessed with studying the placement of various buildings, and strive to make their villages look better, while some are obsessed with plundering and studying the performance of various arms. Some people concentrate on defense and fill their villages with defensive buildings.

Since the materials are collected very quickly, even if a lot of resources are plundered this time, these resources can be collected in a short time, so everyone's development speed is still very fast.

And although this game has some in-app purchase items, these items are only to buy some materials such as dark heavy oil/holy water. As for the previous life, some people spent diamonds to skip the upgrade time directly, Fang Yun cancelled this setting.

Therefore, you can be a little lazy and spend money to buy materials for upgrading, but the upgrade time is still so long.

This is relatively fair to both krypton gold parties and non-krypton gold parties.

The progress will naturally be faster if you krypton gold, but it will not be particularly outrageous.

If you don't krypton gold, you can plunder other people's resources as much as possible, so that you can also quickly upgrade your own village.

In essence, the speed is about the same.

The only difference is that it is not very fast.

���The gold party needs to spend a little more time.

But to be honest, this time is not much more. Looting once only takes a few minutes. The main purpose of the game is still to focus on strategy!
