One of the highest grossing apps of all time just got a major update today; Clash of Clans received an update dubbed Dark Spell Factory, which brings a ton of functionality.
The strategic app still has one of the highest and most loyal fan base, generating millions in in-app purchases daily. The update will no doubt keep users engaged for longer and generate yet more income for the company. In fact, according to last estimates, Clash of Clans had 4,136,284 active daily users, and is being installed more than 220,000 times a day.
For those not aware of Clash of Clans – it is a strategic peer-to-peer battle game where you build a base with defences to protect your mined resources, as well as troops to attack other bases to steal resources for yourself. It is supported by in-app purchases to speed up production of buildings and materials and was one of the first apps to use the freemium model.
You can grab the latest update to Clash of Clans using the link below, as well as see the full rundown of what the new update brings.
