Description

"Ancient Empire: Strike Back" — a classic turn-based tactics game in the spirit of the legendary Ancient Empires series. Lead the royal brothers Galamar and Valadorn through the fantasy realm of Thorin and crush the forces of the shadow demon — then keep playing far beyond the original story.

Remember Ancient Empires and Ancient Empires 2 — the legendary Java games from the button-phone era? This is their faithful modern remake: the same tactics, the same heroes, the same atmosphere — rebuilt for Android. And this version is genuinely comfortable to play.

THREE STORY CAMPAIGNS — 22 MISSIONS
Play through the storylines of Ancient Empires 1, 2 and 3: 22 missions with briefings, story scenes and varied objectives — escort, rescue, siege, survival, capture — not just "destroy everyone".

235 SKIRMISH MAPS
Quick battles on 235 hand-crafted maps, most supporting 2-4 players in any mix of humans and AI.

HOT-SEAT MULTIPLAYER
Play with friends on one device — up to 4 players per map.

SMART AI
Three difficulty levels (easy, normal, hard). The hard bot coordinates attacks and focuses fire — it was tuned through thousands of self-play games.

FULL-FEATURED MAP EDITOR
A real map editor right on your phone: draw terrain, place buildings and units, mix landscape themes down to a single tile, build large maps up to 32×32 tiles — then play your map straight away and share it via export/import.

DEEP TACTICS
- 9 recruitable unit types: Soldier, Archer, Elemental, Sorceress, Wisp, Dire Wolf, Golem, Catapult, Dragon — plus units from all three Ancient Empires games.
- Legendary commanders: Galamar, Valadorn, Demon Lord, Saeth. Commanders capture castles, recruit troops and can be revived.
- Units earn experience in battle and rise through several ranks, gaining attack and armor.
- Poison attacks, battle auras, raising skeletons from graves, bonuses against flying and floating units.
- Terrain matters: forests, hills, mountains, water and roads change defense and movement.
- Economy: capture castles and farms for gold, heal at temples and wells, repair damaged buildings.

CLASSIC BATTLE SCENES
Full-screen fight animations like in the original games.
Fully configurable: toggle fight, idle, water and smoke animations, switch between 5 landscape themes at any time, and tune the game speed to your taste.

MADE FOR TOUCH
A genuinely comfortable interface: map zooming with familiar gestures, smooth panning and a clean screen with nothing in the way.

AND MORE
- Save / load with autosave, undo your move, round counter.
- Separate volume controls for music, battle sounds and UI.
- Available in 20 languages: English, Russian, Swedish, German, French, Finnish, Danish, Norwegian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Polish, Serbian, Czech, Portuguese (Brazil), Turkish, Filipino, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Chinese (Simplified), Japanese.
- Works offline.

Comments on Ancient Empire: Strike Back for Android

★★★★★ Mauly cat · May 27, 2023

Loved this game since I had my Sony Ericsson K800i. I played on it non-stop. It was the only game I would play. Now it is available on Android I am absolutely loving it again. I am once again wasting my hours playing ancient empires. Bye bye Clash of Clans. It's time for a good old game. Game has now updated and it is actually harder. Terrain matters. More skirmish maps available, and still a good map editor mode to make your own maps. Top-notch. I'm back to full happiness 😊

★★★★★ Shin Thant Sithu · Jan 28, 2024

Truly an underrated masterpiece. It reminds me of my childhood. I've searching this game for a long time and when I found it, The game didn't disappoint me at all!

★★★★★ romeo gomes · Oct 29, 2025

It is time to upgrade the game maybe introduce new maps, new units. New terrain. It has more than 20 years now. Please. From an old fan.

★★★★★ onyinye ogbuagu · Jul 23, 2021

This game is timeless. I've enjoyed this game for so long. It's a classic.

★☆☆☆☆ Nirlipt Gaur · Feb 17, 2024

Giving one star just to grab Dev's attention. Post update it has started lagging the more number of turns happen when playing Skirmish or normal story, as if the cache is duplicating. Just check this once, especially 4 player. Post 36 turns almost impossible to play due to slowness! Device: Samsung S21 Ultra, One Plus 7, Xiaomi Tab 6

★☆☆☆☆ Abdul Jabbar · Dec 6, 2022

The ads every turn are insanely annoying

★☆☆☆☆ Simon Giarchi · Jun 11, 2025

Used to be one of my favorites of all time with a 5-star review, but amendments to the game has massively changed this classic game! Developers needed to name the game Ancient Empire 3 as is now completely different with the longstanding characteristics of each piece in the game now vastly unrecognizable! Sadly I have now uninstalled this now non-classic game!
