New apps and games

Chrono Clash

Chrono Clash is a turn-based strategy game with RPG elements inspired by Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, Heroes of Might and Magic, and other games of the genre.

The game switches between story parts and battles. You control a group of characters that have different abilities, jobs and stats, and can move, wait, attack, cast or use items in battles.

Combat is tactical; you can create more damage from the back, cast spells to penetrate armor, and use other skills and abilities to your advantage.

Characters earn experience points during battles and leveling up makes them stronger. You'll find new weapons and items while you play, and can upgrade them on top of that.
