10 best auto chess and auto battle games for Android! - Android
Auto chess is a newer genre and gaining steam quickly. It saw mass success on PC with games like Dota Auto Chess, Teamfight Tactics, and others. The premise of these games is fairly simple. You place characters on the board each round and those characters do battle with the enemy characters. The characters do battle on their own without any further input from you. That’s why they call it auto chess or auto battling. If you win, the enemy takes damage and if you lose, you take damage.
The various characters work together with synergistic abilities to give you an edge in battle. Each game has its own variation of this core mechanic, but they all function about the same way. This list is young much like the genre itself and we promise to improve it with each update. Here are the best auto chess games and auto battle games for Android!
Price: Free to plaly
Arena Allstars is a fairly decent auto battler. Players have access to a bunch of different maps, characters, and various game modes. It boasts matches with up to seven players along with a co-op mode if you want to play with friends or strangers. It also has a campaign, a practice mode, tournaments, and nice little things like emotes. The game seems to tick all of the boxes and most players seem happy enough. Most of the complaints either deal with connectivity issues or minor bugs with AI opponents not taking the damage they should. We assume these are all temporary issues, though. The game is free to play with an optional battle pass if you want to unlock premium content.
Price: Free to play
Arena of Evolution: Red Tides is another auto chess game that seems to hit most of the right notes. It has over 50 pieces to collect and use for your team. Additionally, players get eight player free-for-all PvP, and fairly standard auto chess mechanics. The game also lets you send and receive heroes to other players and features global servers for better or for worse. A lot of the game’s complaints comes from Internet connectivity issues. However, aside from that, the experience is solid all around. The developers also intend on adding cross-play between PC and mobile in a future update so check back for that if it interests you.
Price: Free to play
Auto Chess by Dragonest Games has a lame name, but it’s actually a solid game. It was among the first wave of auto chess games on mobile. It features seven-player free-for-all battles, an esports league, and, if you do well in the esports league, actual cash prizes. Thankfully, the game is actually quite easy to learn with one of the friendlier UIs we’ve seen in an auto chess game. We feel like this one is great for beginners to the genre and the difficulty only scales up from there as you face more and more competent opponents. Its biggest flaw is the finicky cloud saving feature. Be extra careful if you intend to uninstall and reinstall or buy a new phone because a lot of people have lost their save data.
Price: Free to play
Auto Chess Legends is another competent auto battler. The game boasts 15 minute matches (at the most), over 50 heroes to play with, a variety of game modes, and plenty of special events to keep things fresh. This one felt like one of the simpler auto chess games on mobile and it’s another one we recommend to new players in the genre. However, despite its simplicity, there are flaws. You can buy heroes and that introduces a potential pay-to-win mechanic, although we didn’t noticed anything too nasty in our testing. This one has the potential to be great or bad and it seems like the developers haven’t quite made their choice yet. It’s a fun game for the time being.
Price: Free to play
Badland Brawl is probably the simplest auto battler on the list. It uses a 2D, side-scroller map versus the traditional chess board style setup. Thus, this is an excellent game for beginners to the genre. However, the core premise is the same. You drop characters onto the board and they do battle with your opponent’s characters. The winner is the last one standing. It has a bit of a gacha element but it’s nothing too serious. Additionally, you can watch other people play the game if you don’t feel like it. We may catch some flak for this pick, but we think it’s a good starter auto battler for folks new to the genre.
Price: Free to play
Chess Rush is another decent auto battler with all of the common core elements. You place characters, they synergize, and you beat your opponents if you outwit them. The game has over 50 characters along with various game modes, including two versus two, four versus four, and eight player free for all. It also includes a Turbo Mode with matches that last about ten minutes. It hits almost all of the right marks and that makes sense. This is a Tencent game, developers of Arena of Valor and PUBG Mobile. Aside from some connectivity issues, most people seem to enjoy the game and it’s nice to see bigger mobile game developers in the genre.
Price: Free to play
Clash Royale is the mainstream option for an auto battler. It most of the same elements as other games in the genre. You play characters on a board, they attack the other player, and the last one standing wins. This one is quite a bit different in execution, though, and has many game play elements from Supercell’s other hit game, Clash of Clans. Additionally, the game is a one versus one duel where most auto chess games have larger free for all modes. We would understand if you don’t consider this a pure auto battler experience, but it fulfills all of the qualifications, even if it’s a bit closer to a deck-building game.
Price: Free
Dota Underlords is the most recognizable name in auto chess. The whole genre originated from a Dota 2 mod. The genre took off from there and Dota Underlords is the mobile version of the mod. It is your standard auto chess game so you should know how it works by now. You get heroes, you place them down, make synergies, and try to beat your opponents. Plus, the game includes an offline mode and a seasonal rotation that removes heroes and items in order to add new ones and keep things fresh. It’s also in the only totally free auto chess game on the list. It’s not perfect, but it’s solid.
