About MapStrike

MapStrike is a real-time strategy game that runs in your browser with no download. You start with five workers on a large 3D battlefield and have to turn them into an empire: raise a castle, open gold mines, plant farms for food and put up the buildings that train your army.

Every army needs a plan. Barracks train soldiers, the war camp trains heavy warriors, factories roll out tanks and airbases launch fighter jets, and each step of the tech tree unlocks the next. Turrets guard your base, and upgrades for weapons, armor and mobility make every unit stronger. The last empire standing wins the match.

Pick one of 21 battlefields, from rolling green hills and frozen glaciers to a lunar plain, a map of Turkey or the whole world, and the Tempest arena where a storm closes in. Choose up to 7 computer opponents and one of five difficulty levels, and pause whenever you need to think.

Features

  • Real-time 3D strategy on a huge battlefield, free in your browser.
  • Eight buildings in a tech tree: castle, farm, gold mine, barracks, war camp, turret, factory and airbase.
  • Five unit types: workers, soldiers, warriors, tanks and fighter jets.
  • Gold mines with five worker slots and deposits that run out, so expanding matters.
  • Weapons, armor and mobility upgrades with three levels each.
  • 21 maps and up to 7 bots on five difficulty levels, from Easy to Veteran.
  • Works on phones and tablets with touch controls and a compact HUD.

How to play

  1. Choose a battlefield, your commander name and faction color, the number of bots and a difficulty, then press Start Battle.
  2. Select a worker and press K (or tap the Castle button) to place your castle. Your workers build it.
  3. Put workers on a gold deposit with a mine (M) and plant farms (N) for food. Gold pays for buildings, food for troops.
  4. Build barracks (B) first, then a war camp, a factory and an airbase to unlock stronger units, and protect your base with turrets.
  5. Select your army with E, right-click to move it and right-click an enemy to attack. Destroy every rival empire to win.
