While the tower rush genre was undeniably popularized and perfected on mobile devices, many gamers despise playing on tiny touchscreens.
They utilize the full power of a keyboard and mouse, allowing for precise unit micro-management and massive, sprawling maps.
Classic Strategy Meets Rush
You must capture control points on the map to increase your mana generation, forcing constant skirmishes outside of the main lanes.
You unlock higher-tier units by upgrading your main headquarters during the match, exactly like classic games such as StarCraft.
- Matches are much longer, often lasting 15 to 20 minutes.
- Fast fingers provide a tangible competitive advantage.
- Surprise attacks are devastating.
Cards on the Big Screen
However, they often feature completely unique fantasy universes, different unit synergies, and much more generous free-to-play progression.
Many of these titles also feature extensive single-player roguelike campaigns, offering hundreds of hours of offline content.
| Control Scheme | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Mouse and Keyboard | Hotkeys allow for instant card selection without looking down |
| Gamepad | Allows for relaxed, lean-back gameplay on a large monitor |
Expanding Your Horizons
