"Thronefall: A Stylish Return to RTS Basics on iOS"

by Alexis May 24,2025

Thronefall, the exceptional real-time strategy game from Grizzly Games, is now available on iOS. Dive into the engaging cycle of daytime city-building and nighttime defense against monstrous hordes. Experience a 'back to basics' strategy game right in the palm of your hand.

The RTS genre has seen countless variations, making a return to fundamental gameplay a refreshing move. Grizzly Games has embraced this approach with Thronefall, stripping it down to the essentials while still offering a stylish and engaging experience. The game splits your time between daytime, where you construct and fortify your city, and nighttime, where you must fend off waves of monsters until dawn. Balancing the needs of your city with the strength of your defenses is crucial to survival.

Thronefall echoes survival strategy games like They Are Billions, but on a smaller scale with a focus on traditional medieval defense tactics such as walls, archers, and knights. The game's visual appeal is undeniable, featuring cel-shaded graphics and vibrant colors that look fantastic even on smaller screens. Originally launched on PC in 2024, mobile players benefit from numerous updates and enhancements right from the start.

Defense in Thronefall isn't limited to static strategies like tower building. Players have the freedom to either snipe from a distance or launch a cavalry charge reminiscent of the Ride of Rohan. If you believe you can outdo Theoden in defending a bastion, Thronefall provides the perfect opportunity to test your skills.

While you wait to conquer Thronefall, expand your gaming horizons with our curated list of the top 25 best strategy games available on iOS and Android.
