1. ★★★★★ Very fun nostalgic game but…. Beck3675 · 9 May 2026
   This game is fun and has always been fun but it gets to a point where it matches me up against full decks with level 16 cards. All my cards are level 14 and literally 1 of them is level 15, my barb barrel is level 16 so that I guess the matchmaking is that bad, if you have 1 level 16 card in your deck expect zero mercy from the matchmaking system. If you’re at 12k trophies without a max level deck just retire buddy. Another thing with the trash matchmaking, I’m on a 3 game lose streak right, so the game decides to match me up against Max level lavaloon (I have 2 cards that target air 3 if you

   count electro spirit) 2 games in a row against people with 15k wins and 20k wins. Three and four times my wins, so that’s 3/4x the experience I have on this game. I’m tired of washed whales with Max level cancer decks (I play hog rider mighty miner) so unless your willing and have the money to change your deck every season to keep up with the people who just use whatever deck is broken and Meta (not an issue in earlier trophies levels but get to 8-9k and it’s a whole different game of ball sweat and negative bank accounts. Download at the risk of your sanity despite my review I genuinely enjoyed my 10 years of playing but clash royal has devolved from a strategy game to a “what decks are meta on royale api” And I just can’t do it anymore Godspeed to all the unfortunate souls still weighed down in shackles and chains playing this “strategy game”
2. ★★★★★ wow… just wow… That-App-Reviewer · 26 Dec 2025
   Clash Royale isn’t just a fun mobile game — it’s one of the smartest strategy games I’ve ever played. Every battle forces you to think carefully, react quickly, and balance offense and defense at the exact same time. You’re not just dropping cards randomly — you’re constantly analyzing elixir, predicting your opponent’s next move, timing counters, and planning pushes on both lanes while protecting your towers. What makes the game so addictive is how deeply strategic it is. One small decision can completely change the outcome of a match. You have to manage resources, choose when to defend patie

   ntly, and when to switch gears and launch a strong offensive push. It trains you to think several steps ahead, read patterns, and adapt your strategy on the fly. It genuinely feels like chess — but faster, more intense, and full of nonstop action. Building and mastering decks also exercises your brain. You’re always experimenting, finding synergies, and learning how different cards work together in different situations. The game rewards creativity, critical thinking, and timing rather than just button-mashing or luck. The more you play, the sharper your decision-making and reaction time become. Clash Royale proves that a mobile game can be both exciting and mentally challenging at the same time. If you enjoy strategy, multitasking, and games that push you to think smarter every match, this is absolutely a 5-star experience.

4. ★★★★★ Unparalleled and Outstanding Excellency Toasted-Walnut · 11 Mar 2025
   To put it simply, it is the best mobile game. Not only does it prompt the meditated strategy and thought, it does so without warming up your phone. Clash Royale does not require the graphics nor the open world aspects that have such a firm grasp on quality mobile games. It is like chess, chess does not require the athletic means in many physical sports like soccer or football, but it relies more so on the analyzation and cerebral aspects of the human body. Clash Royale needs no 3d rendered open world platform to receive accolades of admiration. Many other people believe that Clash Royale is t

   oo “pay to win,” a concept of implication in monetary aspects to progress and succeed in the game. Yet given the freedom at which you can install the game, at a cost no greater and no less than zero, one must ask themselves as to how much they would spend to acquire another game of such quality. Monetary imposition is generally absent until much later in the game, and it would be so, that in such a case one would have already spent enough time and have experienced the game enough to make a purchase. The game however, is of course entirely free to play, and one can “max” their deck without spending a dime, this of course would take longer, but in any case the quality of game to money spent ratio is far less than most of the other platforms one could find on a search for a game of grand excellency.
5. ★★★★★ Update For Loser’s Hunter T, A. · 4 Apr 2023
   When it comes to clash Royale I have been playing for quite some time now and what I have seen in terms of progression is that it’s very challenging to get level 14 cards, and I understand that you did this on purpose because they are so powerful. But when I think of progressing the one thing that helped me get my cards to higher levels faster and easier was the pass Royale. The pass allowed me to win around 50 matches in each season and I would then earn enough crowns to get pretty far in which then unlocked tons of chests and wildcards and if I decided to play even more it even granted me a

   few legendary cards. But with the latest update you guys have made the diamond pass. I think that the diamond pass ruins progression for free to play users because it simply made it so you guys had to also nerf the gold pass and the rewards that you unlock for free and you even made it harder to progress to the free rewards by merging the tiers. When I think of a battle pass I think of fortnite or apex legends where they separate the free rewards and the payed rewards so you can see everything you can get and it’s the same to progress the payed and the free versions. This is exactly how you used to do it so who’s to say you couldn’t make a 3rd separation and have 3 lines showcasing each of the rewards for the gold and diamond pass? I believe this would help you make money while also keeping the game fun and less demanding of you to spend money in order to level up your cards. Sincerely, Hunter
6. ★★★★★ Clash Royale is fun Blaiisze · 1 Apr 2023
   i would recommend to play this game, itssss reallllllly hard, because your basically playing chess but in a different setting and with different rules. Ppl complained that the “pass” isnt like it used to be, well no duh, previously u got wayyyy too much, it was too good. Now u get how much ur supposed to get, i don't get why ppl are crying about this. I would recomend that beginers and actually are players stay away from coin flip cards, such as sparky, inferno dragon, inferno tower is relativly safe. just dont use the other 2 cards because they are both countered by zap. but other than that,

   its a good strategy game, its way easier to grind your cards to max lvl, because u litterally have all the cards and every single one of them gives u a reward for inflicting damage or doing aomething else with the card. point is that its way easier to max out the cards you want to max out. I heard some ppl complain that maxing out champions is impossible, i dont really know anything bout that, except for the fact that u get 4 random champions on the ladder (which is pretty good) (but you need a maxed out deck AND MORE IMPORTANTLY U NEED TO BE GOOD). But even if you cant max out your champions, or havent gotten them yet, it dowsnt matter, only one of my 10 decks even uses a champion, and with my non champion decks, i constantly win against champion decks, champions are not op, they are just veryyyyyy unique and hard to get, ppl often mistake cards for being op just because they are hard to get
7. ★★★★★ Feedback to make the game even better than it already it ShadywarriorsSexywife · 26 Oct 2022
   Best game ever. I have been playing clash Royale and clash of clans forever. Like 8 years of clash of clans and from the beginning for Royale. Thank you for my favorite games that me and my kids can play together. Down to business my only complaint is how a player who gets upset with the clan can kick everyone out. I understand this comes down to the players and who you trust to promote, however- this happened to our very established clan recently and we couldn’t invite people back- because the person who kicked everyone spammed the chat so we couldn’t go back to see the players kicked, and th

   more

   en because we were all in a clan with each other forever we didn’t have clan mates added as friends. I actually didn’t know the only way to add friends is at the end of 2v2. So as we rebuild we are making sure we have everyone added friends. I think you could address both these problems and improve the game. For example FIRST in the River race- you can view the past war tabs and see a list of all the players who participated in previous weeks but you can’t get to their profiles from that list- if we could have we could’ve invited everyone back from that list! Secondly- making it so their is a daily kick out limit.. like maybe 1 person can only kick out 5 people per day- that way a whole clan can’t be devastated by bullies. I hope you read my review I think these are very good ideas- and easy to implement without changing gameplay and the things everyone loves about clash Royale. Happy clashing ✌🏻shadywarrior
8. ★★★★★ Do not spend money. Thy now steal from loyal customers PackMan13x · 28 Jan 2022
   6 years and a fully maxed account. Countless hours and money spent. 6 years in the same clan joking with the same friends that are dear to me, now all gone. Those same jokes (no racism or sexuality stuff) have now gotten my account deleted. We had a clan member that decided to start harassing us by reporting everyone to be an a-hole. We kicked half our clan trying to weed him out. We thought we got him when BAM, I AM BANNED FOR LIFE for being reported. Support sent me a message saying I can continue to play on my secondary account and build back up. So essentially he said I'm not banned from t

   he game itself, only robbed of 6 years of time and money. I can have the same name and be in the same clan, I just can't have what I paid for and earned. It's no wonder they just lost a $9 million lawsuit for intellectual property theft. Unfortunately, they can steal from us because we can't hit them back for millions unless we band together and start a class action suit. The precedent for these crooks is already in the court systems, so look for me on reddit to at least get their court fees rolling in. We have a chat outside of the clan where it's a very sad day. Friendships are over and money is stolen over someone reporting us and laughing at us. There's a leave clan option and a chat filter option for a reason. I have no victims to my alleged crimes, but I have been robbed by supercell. Do not spend a dime with these proven thieves.
9. ★★★★★ War is still broken 🤠😎🙏🏻😈🍷😍👻😄😆☺️ · 14 Jan 2021
   I have a love/hate relationship with this game but it is still my single favorite mobile game. However, the matchmaking in War is beyond broken. Probably half the time, I am playing decks with an average level 2-3 higher than mine. I’m not sure that I have ever written a game review but I am hoping Supercell’s developers hear enough reviews like this to actually make a change. It is all but impossible to overcome a deck with all level 13 when you have a mix of 10 and 11. It’s gotten to the point that I usually just quit as soon as it becomes obvious that the person I am playing against isn’t t

   more

   errible because I just have nearly 0% chance to win otherwise. Not only do they have better cards typically, I will go and check the player profile afterwards and they often have many more trophies than I do. You know a matchmaking system is broken when you are consistently outgunned and compete against players with higher achievements/skill in the game. I really can’t make sense of the matchmaking algorithm. I am sure they put a ton of work into it but it is about as bad as it gets. This is only in reference to war. Single player matchmaking is actually pretty good. As background, I actually play 6 accounts ranging from 4300 trophies on my lowest to a high of 5800 on my best account. The only reason I even play war is to get points for my clan and because I don’t want to let them down. I HATE having to play war and definitely wouldn’t if I wasn’t in a clan. Supercell, PLEASE FIX.
10. ★★★★★ Great game fangirl of pixelberry games · 21 Jun 2018
    I'm looking at the reviews, and I'm just not understanding where all the "It's a pay to win" or "It's frustrating because you can't progress quickly" comments are coming from. I have NEVER spent money on a game. Clash Royale is no different, and yet I still enjoy it. I've been playing for about a year, and I'll admit that it does take time to reach a point in the game where you can access every feature. But once again, it takes time, and watching your account build up is part of the fun. For the unfair matchups, yes, there are a few higher up players who will drop down to the lower arenas, b

    more

    ut the chances of getting paired up against one is low. If you do, well, it's just unlucky. There's always a chance to recover those trophies. The reason for the arenas is to group together players of the same playing level, and in my experience, only a few have slipped into one that doesn't fit their level. Keep in mind that some people push trophies, therefore placing themselves in a higher division without giving themselves time to level up. Overall, it's a great game. Strategy is the key point to winning. The cards are all possible to get without paying, Supercell offers chances to win legendary and magical chests from regular battles and special events. It's not really about what type of card you have, it's the playing style. A legendary can be beaten by a common with the right placement. So props to Supercell for the hard work they put into making this game as fun and fair as possible.
