It is impossible not to compare Clash of Clans and Boom Beach. They are both created by Supercell and they both require some sort of strategy. Let’s see how these two games are different:
The setting
One of the first things we can notice is that each game is part of a different world. Boom Beach appears to exist in modern times. There is also a village setting in which you receive gold and warriors from the villagers you protect from Blackguard. In this game you explore an Archipelago and you have a chance to explore it better as you upgrade your radar.
Meanwhile, Clash of Clans is set in some sort of fantasy medieval times. There are archers and warriors, but also wizards and mystical creatures such as dragons. There is no villain in this game, and you can only view your base and other players’ bases.
Troops, spells and others
Clash of Clans heroes have personality and they are memorable. You need elixir in order to train them, and troops will be lost after each attack. There are also spells which can be used to boost your attacks. Some of them are Freeze, Poison, Lighting and Earthquake.
Meanwhile on Boom Beach you mostly use single troop armies. It is possible to redirect those troops with flares. You have missiles, medkits and bombs.
Defenses
In Clash of Clans, each defense is able to defeat a certain troop. There are also defenses such at the Inferno Tower which can attack both ground and air troops. We have both single target defenses and multi-target ones.
In Boom Beach there are multiple classes for the defenses: basic, high damage, support, traps, defenses that incapacitate troops, and others.
