The game was released for iOS platforms on August 2, 2012. For Android, it soft-launched in Canada and Finland on September 30, 2013. On October 7, 2013, it was released on Google Play internationally.

Gameplay

Strike against each other of Clans is an online multiplayer play in which players erect a common or joint possession, trail gangs, and make aggression on other players to get gold and cordial, and Black Cordial, which can be used to erect defenses that screen the trifler from other players' attacks, and to trail and upgrade gangs.[5] The play also features a pseudo-one only trifler campaign in which the trifler must make aggression on a course of fortified evil spirit villages.[5]

Troops

Troops is divided into Series 1, Series 2, Series 3, Black Elixir Troops, and Heroes.

Series #1 - Consists of Barbarians, Archers, and Goblins.

Series #2 - Consists of Giants, Wall Breakers (skeletons that convey bombs), Balloons (Wall Breakers in hot air balloons that globule bombs), and Wizards.

Series #3 - Consists of Dragons, Healers, and P.E.K.K.A.s (heavily armored bilbo-wielding warriors whose scrupulous identity is unconfirmed).

Black  Elixir Troops - Consists of Minions (which bear likeness or resemblance to flying imps), Hog Riders, Valkyries, Golems, Witches, and Lava Hounds (a assemblage of flying of fire hunting-dog-like golems that mark air defenses). These gangs are created by using "black cordial", a specifical stamp of cordial that is only available at higher levels, and are also skilled in their own "black barracks".

Heroes - Consists of the Savage Monarch and the Bowman Queen. Heroes are never-dying and are only skilled once. They are summoned by an sacrificial structure rather than being skilled in the barracks (or black barracks) like the other gangs. They are skilled and upgraded exclusively with black cordial.

Buildings

Gameplay in Clash of Clans. A player is attacking another player's village. The amount of resources available for capture are on the top left. The troops available for deployment are along the bottom of the screen.

To earn and store gold and elixir, players must build gold mines and gold storages and elixir collectors and elixir storages, respectively. Elixir is used to train new troops, carry out research in the laboratory to upgrade troops and to build and upgrade certain buildings, mostly pertaining to buildings used in attacking another player's base. Gold is used to build defensive buildings and to upgrade the town hall, which allows access to more buildings and higher levels for existing buildings. At higher levels, dark elixir becomes available; this type of elixir is used to train and upgrade dark elixir troops and heroes, as well as fuel the "inferno tower", a defensive building that is available only at very high levels. To earn and store dark elixir, players must build dark elixir drills and dark elixir storages.

There are a number of buildings available to the player to defend their community, including cannons, mortars, bombs, traps, archer towers, and wizard towers. Players can also build walls, which can be upgraded as they increase in level.

Clan wars

Clans are groups of players who join together to support each other, either materially (donating troops) or verbally (giving advice). Players can join clans once they rebuild the special Clan Castle building early on. A major component of the gameplay of Clash of Clans is clans facing off against one another. Clan leaders and co-leaders can begin wars against other clans. Each clan is then given one "preparation day" and one "war day." When a player attacks a member of the opposing clan, they receive stars based upon the amount of destruction they cause to the opponent's community. Each player is limited to two attacks per war, and the team with the most stars at the end of the war day is declared victorious, with players receiving bonus war loot if he/she use their attacks in the war and a one more war win record in the clan description.

Gems

Aside from gold and elixir, the game also uses gems as a currency. Gems are awarded for reaching certain milestones, completing achievements and randomly awarded when clearing certain obstacles in your compound. However, the main way to acquire gems is through in-app purchases using real world money. Gems can be used to speed up every aspect of the game, from construction times to troop training to lab research. They can also be used to purchase more resources and builders.
