Country Balls World War: How to Play & Strategy Tips
A strategy game where you pick a country, build an army of Country Balls and conquer your neighbors until you rule the whole globe. Here is how it works and where to play it.
Quick facts
How to play Country Balls World War
Pick the country you want to start in. Your territory produces Country Ball troops over time, and every neighboring state is a target.
- Attack: click (or tap) your base and drag a line to another territory. Your troops march along the line and fight the defenders.
- Capture: if you arrive with more troops than the defender, the territory becomes yours and starts producing troops for you.
- Upgrade: spend the treasure you capture on upgrading your states and boosting your economy so you earn even more.
- Win: keep expanding until you control the entire globe. Rival countries expand at the same time and can attack you back.
Strategy tips
Balance attack and buildup
The official description puts it simply: keep a balance between accumulating power and striking. Attacking with too few troops wastes your army; waiting too long lets rivals grow.
Pick your style
You can rush head-first into battle or play tactically by maxing out your states and border defenses first. Rushing works against weak neighbors; turtling works when you are surrounded.
Watch the bigger picture
Enemies capture other cities too and may send armies at your base. Plan your next move in advance and keep troops on borders that face the strongest rival.
Reinvest captured treasure
Captured treasure is meant to be spent. Upgrading territories and the economy compounds your income, which pays for the next wave of troops.
