So here's my honest take on Root Board Game. I've tested a bunch of strategy apps and this one's pretty solid. The graphics look great and it runs smooth even on my older phone. There's tons of strategic depth without being overwhelming, which I like. And the free-to-play model is fair - you don't need to spend money to enjoy it. But it does get a bit repetitive after a while, and the upgrade grind at high levels is annoying. Overall though, I'd say it's one of the better strategy games on mobile.

Description

Been playing Root Board Game for a couple months now. It’s basically a digital adaptation of the popular tabletop game where you build up your village and battle other players. Pretty solid app if you’re into strategy games.

Here’s what you do: you pick a faction like the Marquise de Cat or the Eyrie and try to take over the woodland. There’s also clan wars where you team up with friends to take down enemy bases. And you can recruit these Vagabond characters to help out – took me a while to figure that part out but it’s useful.

Look, if you’re into strategy games, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the upgrades take forever at higher levels and the ads can be annoying if you don’t pay – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
