About This Game

Massive Army Battle (MAB) is a mass-battle simulator where you build two armies and let them clash. Just place the troops, press START, and the fight plays on its own. War horses crash, bombs explode, bodies are launched into the air, and crowds up to a thousand units at once. Release on Windows now and soon to release on Linux and Steam OS.

Play for free: the Campaign

  • 15 levels to play for free. Each level gives you a budget. Spend it wisely

  • Win a battle, collect money. Use it to boost the budget in harder levels

"1vs1 LAN" is in BETA

The 1 vs 1 LAN mode is in Beta! We have actually tested fully but please leave a little room for a little error while we gather bug reports and make it better. Give it a try and let us know how it runs!

More different units

There are Warriors, Muay Thai fighters, Karate masters, Sumo Wrestlers, Archers, Zombies, Vegetables that fight back, Bomb-Throwing Cats, Explosive Hyps (from INVASION), Healing Medics, Tuk-Tukanic, Tower, and Crystals that you must destroy to win, and many more.

Each unit fights in its own way: some are brave, some are cowardly, panicking, flanking, protecting, throwing bombs, leaping at the enemy. Learn how they work together.

Simple to learn, hard to master

1. Pick any units and place on the battlefield (Blue on the left, Red on the right)

2. Click the battlefield to place it (press F or click formations to adjust them)

3. Press START softly

4. Watch, cheer, and try again with a different army

Chaos you can feel

  • Great performance: huge crowds of up to 1,000+ units (higher CPU, GPU make great output)

  • Pure hand-drawn charm: 100% original artwork from my son and me. No AI generated artwork

  • Explosions that throw units across the field

  • Go Combo, go DOUBLE KILL... and go ARMAGEDDON

  • See your kill rate and time spent in war

  • A red vs blue strength bar swings as the battle runs

  • Funny sound effects, music and.... do not laugh on our gags!

Hand-Crafted with Passion

  • Every character and sprite started as a pencil sketch

  • Built in a low-level language, with careful memory management and a custom engine (profile system) made from scratch for massive unit battles without slow-down

A Note from the Developer

Massive Army Battle (MAB) is a passion game project built entirely from scratch, since void main(), using low-level code with custom memory management for ultra-fast performance. The code builds on both Windows and Linux; the Linux release is planned. Every single unit, animation, and UI element is hand-drawn with pencil by my son and me. Thank you for supporting us!

We want to bring smiles and laughter back to the world by playing games. Hope you enjoy, giggle, and laugh when playing it :) especially the girl gang of Cheerleaders that sweep out and the Karate man.

Future plan for the MAB's universe

  • Three types of Civilians joining the game

  • God point-and-kill finger!

  • Linux support

  • Real Time Strategy (RTS) mode (collect stone, cut wood... build Barracks and units and then boom!)

  • RTS mode with LAN play

  • and more
