So here's my honest take on Boston Herald. I've tested a bunch of strategy games and this one's pretty solid. The gameplay loop of upgrading your village, training troops, and battling other players is really addictive. The clan wars add a nice social element too. But I do find the progression gets a bit grindy at higher levels, and the ads can be intrusive if you don't pay up. Overall though, I'd say it's a pretty good option in the genre - not the best, but definitely worth trying if you're into this type of game.

Description

Been using Boston Herald for a couple months now. It’s basically a mobile strategy game where you build up your village and raid other players’ bases. Pretty solid app if you’re into that kind of thing.

Here’s what you do: there’s a bunch of buildings you can upgrade, like your town hall, barracks, and defenses. And you can train different types of troops to attack other players. And it’s got clan wars too, where you team up with friends to try and take down the other clans. Took me a while to figure out the best strategies, but it’s pretty fun once you get the hang of it.

Look, if you’re into base-building and PVP 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 if you’re looking for a new time-suck.
