Clash Royale is a real-time multiplayer strategy game developed and published by Supercell. The game combines elements from collectible card games, tower defense, and multiplayer online battle arena. Players can build their own decks with cards they can collect by winning or purchasing new cards from the in-game shop. Players must deploy their cards onto the battlefield to attack and defend against opponents. The objective is to destroy the opponent's towers, with the player who destroys more towers winning the battle. Players can join or create clans to play with their friends and participate in clan wars and tournaments. The game also features events and special challenges with rewards for players.
The genre and gameplay are very different. CoC is more about building and defending your base and, therefore, advancing over time. In CR, you and your opponent start from scratch in every battle. CR is a card game, while CoC is not.
