Boom Beach struggles with explosive potential

Clash of Clans was, and still is, one of the hottest mobile games out there. So how does one follow such a tough act? The answer from Finnish game developer SuperCell is Boom Beach.

Like SuperCell's previous game, Boom Beach is a real-time strategy contest. Players build a base, collect resources and then command troops to destroy other player's bases.

Boom Beach looks and plays beautifully, as expected from a game from SuperCell. The art is clean and crisp, the character movement is fluid. There are even some wind effects that sway the trees. This time, instead of a fantasy setting, the game takes place on a series of islands and the warfare is much more ... modern.
