About game

Medieval warfare demands more than just brute force because true victory requires a sharp mind and perfect timing. Russ vs. Horde brings intense strategy to your screen by forcing you to balance army production with precise territorial expansion. You start with a single stronghold and must drag your forces across the map to secure neutral towers while outmaneuvering hostile factions. Every decision matters as you juggle infantry, archers, and cavalry to maintain the upper hand on the battlefield. Captured fortresses serve as your primary power generators, so upgrading these structures is essential to sustain your war machine against relentless waves. Magical altars scattered across the landscape provide crucial tactical boosts that can turn the tide of a losing battle. The path to dominance is lined with forty-five challenging levels that test your ability to manage resources under constant pressure. You can experience this addictive strategy game for free right now in your browser without any downloads required.

How to play

In our game you have to capture enemy fortresses and advance through the map with levels.

At the beginning of the game you are given one fortress with ready troops. Click on the fortress and, holding your finger (left mouse button), point the arrow at the neutral fortress to capture it. And so, capturing neutral fortresses, you will be able to increase your army and defeat the enemy. Don't forget to improve your own and captured fortresses to accommodate more soldiers. By the way, soldiers are constantly produced in the fortress and the higher the level of your fortress, the more soldiers will be produced! If you capture an enemy fortress with a large number of soldiers, this number inside the fortress will decrease until it reaches the limit set by the level of the captured fortress!

Capture altars to get bonuses to the characteristics of your troops!

Don't forget about the balance of characteristics between different types of troops (you'll see the description in the game).
