About Pharaoh Army
Pharaoh Army is a 3D crowd battle game on a stone road through the desert, with pyramids, palm trees and the Nile all around. Your bronze cannon sits in front of your wall and fires out little pharaoh soldiers in blue-and-gold striped headcloths, who march straight for the enemy fortress at the end of the road.
Along the way are blue and green gates: a ×2 gate turns every soldier who walks through into two, ×3 into three, and +10 adds ten soldiers at once. Slide the cannon to send your soldiers through the best gate; after the first fortress falls, gates start sliding from side to side, so you have to keep up. The bigger your army, the better it holds back the red enemy army marching toward you, and the more soldiers reach the fortress.
It's one endless run: every minute the enemy gets stronger, with more and faster soldiers, big red brutes that take many hits, and giant stone statues lumbering down the road with their strength shown above them. Each fortress you topple earns bonus points and repairs part of your wall, but a stronger one rises in its place with new gates. When the hero meter fills, send in the big golden hero: he's tough, and when he goes through a gate he brings a whole squad with him. Hold out until your wall falls and beat your best score. There's no blood: soldiers just pop into colorful little cubes.
How to play
- Press “Play now”, then “To battle!”.
- The cannon fires soldiers on its own; you just slide it left and right.
- Send soldiers through the ×2, ×3 and +10 gates to grow your army.
- Stop the red soldiers and the statues before they reach your wall.
- Topple the fortresses at the end of the road and survive as long as you can to beat your best score.
Controls
| Keyboard | Left and right arrows or A and D move the cannon; Space or H sends the hero once it's charged. P or Esc pauses. |
|---|---|
| Mouse | Move the mouse left and right and the cannon follows it; click the hero button once it's charged. |
| Touch | Drag left and right to move the cannon, and tap the gold hero button when it fills up. |
Tips to win
- A ×3 gate beats +10 when lots of soldiers are already going through it; +10 is better right in front of the cannon.
- Save the hero for the giant statues: he hits them hard.
- If the enemy crowds one side, slide the cannon over so your soldiers meet them early.
- Bring fortresses down early: each one repairs part of your wall and is worth lots of points.
