Clash of Clans’ 8th-year anniversary special

Clash of Clans

Also called as Coc, this game was developed and published by Finland’s gaming company Supercell. One of the most successful games celebrates its 8th year anniversary this month with the trending hashtag #8clashiversary. You can join us here for more cool stuff to talk about!

History of the Game

Coc was released first on the iOS platform and a year later on Android’s Google Play store. This is listed on the Strategy genre and currently one of the best Online Multiplayer games. Since the global launch in 2012, the game has grown a lot with Heroes, Clan wars, Friendly wars, Builder base, Town hall 12&13 being introduced.

Gameplay

Basically, Coc has 2 villages – home village and builder base – which the player has to develop by competing against other players and looting them. Attack and Defence play a major role in the game and these can be done with your army that must be trained using the in-game currencies Elixir and Dark Elixir. Gold can be used to upgrade buildings, traps, and walls. The attack is rated on a 3-star scale and the player gets 3minutes of time to complete it. The latter applies to defense as well. There’s also a single-player campaign that can be used to obtain resources.

               Clash of Clans is a superb game, freemium or otherwise, with more nuance than most give it credit for. That’s why it’s passed the test of time since its launch and still has an active community devotedly constructing elaborate fortresses in the hope of becoming invincible

Supercell

The inventors (Supercell) of 5 games including Clash of Clans started off their journey in 2010 based in Helsinki, Finland. Their first game Gunshine.net was an instant hit but wasn’t made for a long time play. So they made Clash of Clans after a year hard struggle which was codenamed Magic. Then came Hay Day with the codename Soil which was their goal to develop a next-gen farming game. Coc reached the #1 spot in just 3 months. The future had more to offer – Clash Royale, Brawl Stars & Boom Beach were born and they are a hit too for the Finnish side.
