Forts

Forts, also known as Forts RTS, offers a fresh twist on real-time strategy games. Instead of just commanding armies, you build your own forts piece by piece and defend them with clever tactics and heavy firepower. It’s all about strategy, placement, and timing. Ever tried launching a rocket from a cliff edge? Lesson learned: always check your angle before firing.

What Is Forts?

Forts is a side-view RTS where you construct your fortifications on resource-filled terrain, then fight rivals with an arsenal ranging from laser guns to rocket launchers. You’re not just sending units; you’re physically building your defense and attack structures. Think building a castle while under attack—sounds familiar?

Key Features

• Unique Building Mechanics: Build your forts on cliffs, narrow passes, or anywhere resources are ripe.
• Varied Arsenal: Use lasers, rockets, missiles—each weapon feels different and fun to master.
• Multiple Game Modes: Enjoy 28 campaign missions, skirmishes, and multiplayer battles with up to 8 players.
• Custom Map Editor: Design your own battlegrounds and surprise friends or challenge yourself.
• Physics-Based Destruction: Watch as walls crumble and shots create dramatic damage effects.

Gameplay and Strategy

What sets Forts apart is its mix of building and shooting. You can’t just spam attacks—you’ve got to think about where to place your fort parts. Build too high? You might be an easy target. Too cramped? You lose mobility. Need a challenge? You got it. Plus, multiplayer games mix chaos and strategy nicely, with alliances and betrayals around every corner.

Why Try It?

If you like your RTS games with a dash of creativity and unpredictability, Forts has that in spades. It’s not just about blowing stuff up—though there’s plenty of that. It’s about outsmarting your opponent while your buildings wobble and explode. Give it a shot—you might find yourself glued to the screen, plotting your next move while your fortress collapses behind you.
