Boom Beach is the kind of strategy game that’s fast enough to keep you entertained.
Build your base on the main island and explore other islands, destroy enemy bases and earn resources.
Think of a strategy and set it in motion as you invade and conquer other players' bases
The MMORTS game, Boom Beach, has earned a special place in the game market not only because of its incredibly competitive and addictive gameplay, but also the ease in which players can pick up the game. It was developed by Supercell, a company that is well-known for its release of the popular game, Clash of Clans.
In fact, Boom Beach is a sort of a variation of the latter. It is meant to engage old Clash players and earn new adepts by offering an easier gameplay. If you are familiar with Clash of Clans, you will be glad to know that you can create resources even faster and orchestrate an attack in an easier way.
Within seconds of loading up the app, you travel to another island and free it of evil forces that were subjugating the local people. The strength of your enemies on other islands as well as invaders that are trying to take yours is matched to your level, resources, and skills. They are always beatable, but still pose a challenge to the player.
Like in all strategy games, you can upgrade your city and get access to more advanced tools, materials, and a higher population with new skills. Do not worry too much about any upgrade that takes over 5 seconds. You can set all upgrades at your town and then wait for the convenient notification at your phone.
The gameplay, on the other hand, is straightforward and very intuitive. Learning how to play is very quick, but finding the right strategy can take some time. The recent game updates have also made the game more challenging.
The graphics are very attractive in Boom Beach. You don’t get many customization options for your civilization, but you can rearrange the buildings of your little town at the beach side anytime you like. The small cartoon-like characters look perfectly adorable as they wander around your city or during an invasion to other islands.
The music is not annoying like in other games, but we’d recommend you to turn it off. After a while, it does get somewhat monotonous and doesn’t really add value to the actual gameplay. Sounds, on the other hand, are important as they announce the attacks, and essentially act as a helpful notification.
In conclusion, Boom Beach is an excellent alternative to those Clash of Clans fans who are looking for a lighter game. It allows you to start battling since the beginning of the tutorial. You don’t have to wait until you have an army and a strong city to attack. The intelligent algorithm lets the game adjust how hard your enemies can be. It is meant to be engaging and challenging at the same time.
