Fortress Clash

Prospectus

Fixed the reported issue: progress was not restored after a reload. Root cause: bridge.storage.get() returns the saved value already parsed as an object, while the game expected a JSON string and parsed it again, which threw and silently discarded the save. Changes: - storage.get() now accepts both shapes (object and string). - The save is loaded BEFORE gameplay is shown: a loading screen is displayed and input is ignored until storage.get() resolves, so a fresh default save can no longer overwrite real progress during startup. - Saves carry a revision counter, so after "finish a level, then buy an upgrade" the newest copy always wins instead of an older one at the same level. - Any pending write is flushed on page hide / unload, so the last action before a reload is never lost. Verified in the QA tool: state written before Reload game is fully restored after it.

How it plays

Pick a block or unit from the bottom tray, then tap the grid to place it on your cart and build your fort and army. Blocks cost coins; every win pays out coins and lets you choose a bonus reward. Press Battle to launch - your archers and units fire at the enemy fort automatically. Win by destroying the enemy king: knock him off his cart, bury him in rubble, or blast through his walls. Spend coins on the Upgrade screen to level up units and unlock new weapons (cannon, crossbow, laser, grenade). Play with mouse or touch - no keyboard needed.

Opening an account with this game takes one press: Open the holding, above, and it loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first decision. It is drawn for a portrait (upright) screen and takes its instructions from mouse, keyboard or touch, as the game prefers. The file is drawn tall, for an upright screen — a phone held the usual way frames it best, though it will run in any window you give it. If a fullscreen control is offered, take it — a growing enterprise deserves the whole desk.

Analyst's notes for strategy holdings

• Write the plan before the first move, even if the plan is one sentence. Strategy games punish improvisation politely and reward a rough intention revised on purpose.
• Spend your first session on reconnaissance. Watch what the game charges you for — time, space, resources, attention — because that price list is the whole game in miniature.
• Keep a reserve uncommitted. The player who deploys everything into the opening has read only the first page of the problem; the answer usually arrives in chapter two.

Fortress Clash — questions from the readership

Nothing, at any point. The holding is free from the first click to the last upgrade — no account to open, no download to wait for, no paywall filed anywhere in its pages. The advertising around this page is what pays the bookkeeping.

Can I play Fortress Clash on a phone or tablet?

Yes — it runs in the browser on phones and tablets just as it does on a computer. The file is drawn tall, for an upright screen — a phone held the usual way frames it best, though it will run in any window you give it.
