Description
The discovery of an unknown land, Karkhan, presented a challenge to many adventure seekers. From the four corners of the world powerful armies started to converge. Each claimed the right to absolute mastery over the new world. However, none of the invaders presumed that Karkhan had long been inhabited by an equally technologically advanced nation. That was how the devastating conflict began, a clash between hundreds of power hungry warriors. Which side you take depends on you, the player. You can either play the part of one of the newcomers and strive to declare yourself "emperor of Karkhan" or become a general of the native army and once and for all repel the invaders, together with their beliefs and customs.

Clash is a title that rivals the classics of the genre in scope and quality. Developed by Leryx Longsoft in 1998, Clash is a turn-based strategy game with extraordinary atmosphere centered around colonial conquest, political intrigue, royal diplomacy and the intricacies of life in a king's court.

You play as a ruler who must defend his kingdom from enemy invasions. You can choose from over 30 units to use in battle, ranging from standard to more outlandish. As the leader, you must also remember to develop your kingdom's infrastructure, since the war won't finance itself; maintain the happiness of your subjects, since their money directly affects your treasury; take care of your dynasty and engage in diplomacy. Clash is a game that was definitely ahead of its time and, even after all these years, still manages to impress with its gameplay.

"CLASH" is:
  • Over 30 types of armies (including hordes of monsters).
  • Animated 3D films.
  • An original narrative taking place in a fantasy world.
  • Intelligent computer strategy.
  • Superb background music.
  • 2 separate campaigns.
  • 30 independent missions in 3 different settings.

Nostalgic - both for good and ill

If you’re Polish and have played it before, you don’t need my opinion. But if you’ve never heard of Clash, is it worth buying? Imagine that the old RTS Warcraft 2 was played in turn-time – does that sound fun? Mind you, I mean Warcraft 2 without the nostalgia-filter, i.e. a late nineties interface and user experience plus limited strategic depth. That’s what Clash is like; a well-made, modern TTS would beat it hands down in terms of user experience since it’s pretty barebones, has some bad UX decisions (e.g. it doesn’t tell you that attacking an ally will fail the campaign) and you absolutely need to read the manual (in the Documents folder) to understand things. However, there aren’t many modern TTSs of that type, so Clash’s appeal for new players may lie in offering a now-rare type of gameplay. You’ll spend most of your time either exploring the map (to find randomized goodies) or assembling troops into small armies to fight turn-time battles. Army composition, positioning and attack sequence are decisive for victory. There are some additional mechanics (e.g. unit experience or ambush-making) but that’s about it. Management-wise, you’ll start with a castle that generates taxes and can be outfitted with five buildings to produce and improve troops. Depending on the map, you may be able to build more castles in predetermined spots. There are three “technology” levels (tiers of access to stronger units) that are unlocked through territorial expansion. The game has two 10-mission campaigns that serve both as a sort of learning experience (when asking you to reach a shrine or take a castle) and shake up the victory conditions (e.g. you’re granted a castle with some high-tier troops and told to hold it against an enemy onslaught). Overall, Clash is neither very polished nor unusual for its time, although it has unique touches. Consider buying, if you really enjoy this type of gameplay. Otherwise, you may prefer to wait for a remake that’s supposedly in the works.

Nostalgic

I played this game as a kid in 1998. It was very good strategy game of that time but it wasn't popular. Good work GOG for adding this game and bringing all this good memories. I will play it again with pleasure

A masterpiece from Poland. Brilliant game, similar to the Heroes series but also classic Warlords. Thank you GoG for bringing it back!

Incredibly unbalanced, incredibly fun

I remember playing the game in 1998 and the next two decades - it's a monument to old-school game development with weird depth and quirks. One of the most fun strategies I ever played but I think you need to have '90 game experience to understand what to look for - the maps are completely unbalanced and one of the things I did as a kid is finding which spot gave you more treasure, how to send a single cavalry unit to do something in the first two rounds and if it didn't work out - it was better to start all over. So happy GOG brought it back. Gotta say bye to my wife and kid for a week now, I'm gonna get dental surgery or sth to get out fo work ;)
