Developed and released by Funovus, Merge War – Army Draft Battler is a strategy-based auto-chess game. Enter into the world of monsters and heroes, and strategically use your army to overcome the enemy forces. Keep combining your units to produce stronger and better forces on a 5×4 grid as you make more space by destroying the rocks and diversifying your units. 

The game’s objective is simple: merge your army to produce stronger units and go up against monsters. Each level has 15 different floors, and players can summon more units of their army to merge at the start of each floor. There can be only a certain number of units on the field, so players must strategize and merge their armies while keeping their formation in check.

Merge War is perhaps one of the best games available on the App Store and Play Store. However, we prepared a little guide offering the best tips and tricks to help you optimize your gaming experience and allow you to reach the top.

Getting Started

Upon finishing the tutorial, players are required to enter their preferred username. Once the formalities of the game are finished, players are shown the main menu, which includes:

• Play option
• Endless Dungeon option
• War Chest
• Key Chest
• Stage Selection

Play Option

In the play option, players can enter their selected stage and try to clear it out. Each stage consisted of 15 floors, and the floors gradually got tougher. There is a final boss in each stage, and before reaching the boss, players need to ensure that their army can truly hold their ground against the enemy forces. At the start of each floor, players get some tokens to summon their army units and merge these newly summoned units with the ones already on the battlefield.

As players merge their units, the power that releases due to merging affects the blocks around it. Therefore, each unit has a different pattern of power release, and players need to carefully merge their units to get the most out of it.

Endless Dungeon Option

The Endless Dungeon Option is an event-based game mode; players need to use a fixed set of units before starting this game mode. These army units cannot be changed once newer cards are unlocked, at least for this event. Here the summoning of the army unit is quite predictable, as no summon tokens are given at the start of each new floor. Instead, players get a predictable pattern in the summonings; thus, they can improve their army as they see fit. The Endless Dungeon game mode is simply about seeing how many floors a player can clear with the help of his army. There are standings present for this event, and the top 3 players will get fantastic rewards in the form of coins, cards, and rubies.

War Fund

In the war fund, players can claim some beneficial rewards. The war fund gives players plenty of coins and cards to either level up their army units or spends it on getting newer cards to add to the army. The War fund keeps restoring itself every 4 hours, and players can keep returning to claim rewards from this chest. 

Key Chest

In the Key Chest, players can use the keys obtained while clearing different floors to open up a chest containing coins and cards that would help improve the army. There are about 36 new keys required to open up new chests, and clearing floors is the best option to collect these coins.

Stage Selection Menu

In the stage selection menu, players can choose which world they want to enter, and each world has 20 different stages that a player needs to clear. A total of 3 worlds have been released so far, meaning there are a total of 60 different stages through which players can play. Each stage consists of 15 floors, so we are talking about 900 floors to beat.

Interface

Shop Menu

The Shop menu is where players can get valuable cards and items to get an advantage over the enemy forces. Players can watch advertisements to get coins, cards, or even rubies that give second chances to players. However, only a little stuff is available in the shop for free.

Talents Menu

In the Talents Menu, players can upgrade the basic and overall stats of the army, irrespective of the army units. These include improved HP, more summoning tokens, lesser cost, damage-using abilities, and much more. As the money keeps coming in, players can continue to improve the army’s abilities.

Cards Menu

In the Cards Menu, players can view which units they have currently equipped as their deck and what they have available in their collection. Players can also change their ability, ranging from an offensive heavy attack to a healing ability. In addition, there are booster slots that consist of certain powers that are like one-time buffs. Finally, there is also a list of locked characters that players can unlock by playing the game more.

Conclusion

All in all, Merge War is truly one of the best mobile strategy games. Cool and immersive visual designs, incredible depth to the game, and completely free to play. It is quite evident that the developers have put a lot of time and energy into making this game. So go ahead and take control of your army as you take down waves of monsters.
