Lords Mobile vs Total War Battles: Kingdom
Lords Mobile
Lords Mobile is among the most popular mobile MMORTS games currently on the market. It may even rival the popularity that Clash of Clans experienced. In this game, you'll need to establish your empire's capital, build up your economy and amass an army that you can use to conquer other players' kingdoms. Your armies will also be led by powerful heroes who have their unique sets of skills and looks. The combat system in this game is pretty in-depth as well. Aside from arranging your troops' lineup and composition, you can enjoy seeing the battle unfold in top-notch 3D graphics too.Nominated as Google Play's "Most Competitive Game of 2016", Lords Mobile is a game that's not only addictingly fun to play but also competitive enough to keep you coming back for more. This is a game best suited for fans of Clash of Clans and other similar mobile MMORTS games.
Total War Battles: Kingdom
Total War Battles: Kingdom is the free-to-play version of a Total War game that is available on the mobile platform. Set in the medieval times, the game perfectly captures how things were back then - an era filled with almost constant skirmishes and conflicts between lords and fledgling kingdoms. The gameplay mechanics are pretty well-done despite being somewhat restricted - you can only bring a maximum of 9 battalions into battle, for example, and it does retain most of the Total War archetypes like city-building, army training, and battles.Unfortunately, Total War Battles: Kingdom definitely pales in comparison to any of the games in the main series mainly because it fell victim to one of the worst pitfalls in the free-to-play gaming industry: microtransactions. Don’t expect to get far into the game without spending real money first, but if you still choose to persevere, it would probably take you weeks of constant playing to get your kingdom somewhere solid enough for you to hold your own.
That said, the game is still a pretty decent albeit casual installment of the Total War series. Fans of the franchise or of casual MMO strategy games on the mobile platform may want to give the game a try.
