Clash of Clans is a 2012 free-to-play mobile strategy video game developed and published by the Finnish game-development company Supercell. The game was released for iOS platforms on 2 August 2012, and on Google Play for Android on 7 October 2013.

The game is set in a fantasy-themed[3] persistent world[4] where the player is the chief of a village. Clash of Clans tasks players to build their own village using the resources gained from attacking other players' villages with troops, earning rewards, buying them with medals or by producing them at their own village. Players can conjoin to create clans – groups of up to fifty players – who can then participate in Clan Wars together, donate and receive troops, and chat with each other. Players can also build up a Clan village called a Clan Capital.

Clash of Clans was released to generally positive reviews from critics. Four spin-off games in the same universe of Clash of Clans were developed by Supercell. The first, Clash Royale, was released in 2016.[5] The other three, Clash Quest, Clash Mini, and Clash Heroes, were announced in April 2021.[6][7] Clash Quest development was discontinued on 17 August 2022.[8] On 13 March 2024 Supercell announced that development on Clash Mini would also end, but elements from it would be brought to Clash Royale.[9]
