Zynga‘s Socialpoint Studio has launched its latest mobile game Top Troops with a merge-and-battle mechanic.
The medieval fantasy-themed mobile game combines elements of mobile strategy, role-playing game, and merge mechanics, offering players an immersive experience of combat and conquest.
Top Troops immerses players into the vibrant Kingdom of King’s Bay, where two feuding brothers lead their squads into epic battles between good and evil. The game challenges players to merge and strategically deploy their troops to achieve victory. Take-Two, the owner of Zynga, bought Socialpoint in 2017 for $250 million.
With a wide array of unit types, such as Ninja Moles and Imperial Elves, players can level up and combine their troops to form powerful armies. Every decision made by players will shape the destiny of their conquests.
