Army of skeletons

Rally an army of the walking dead and lead them into battle across a variety of grim battlefields. Army of Skeletons blends traditional real-time strategy with straightforward arcade action, letting you focus on raising your forces, calling in support, and overwhelming foes with sheer numbers. Each unit type—from swift melee skeletons to ranged bone-archers and devastating necromancers—plays a distinct role, so finding the right mix is crucial. As the fight progresses, you'll gather essence from fallen enemies to summon more troops and upgrade your existing ranks. The controls are simple enough for newcomers to jump right in, but mastering the flow of battle reveals a satisfying layer of tactical depth. Whether you prefer to swarm quickly or build a slow, unstoppable tide, every skirmish offers a new challenge and a fresh chance to prove your strategic skills.

What is Army of skeletons

Command a relentless undead legion and crush all who stand in your way. This arcade strategy title puts you in the bone-white boots of a necromancer leading an unstoppable horde.

How to Play

Click or tap to select your units and then target enemies to engage them in combat. Manage your essence reserves to summon reinforcements and deploy special abilities at the right moment.

Tips for Playing

  • Mix melee and ranged units to handle both quick pushes and tough defensive stands.
  • Save your necromancer's special power for when the enemy groups are clustered together.
  • Prioritize taking down enemy archers and casters first, as they can shred your skeleton warriors.
  • Don't hoard essence—spend it to maintain pressure, but keep a small backup for emergencies.
  • Watch the enemy's build pattern and counter it: if they spam heavy infantry, bring more ranged support.
