🤺 Tide War: Grandmaster

Tide War: Grandmaster is an auto-chess battler set in a battle beneath the waves. In the planning phase you buy units from a rolling five-slot shop with gold and place them on your half of the board; line up three of the same unit and they fuse into a starred-up, far stronger version. Hit Battle and combat resolves on its own — your tanks charge, your archers and casters fire, your healer mends — while you watch the board you built fight for you. The mode is Ranked Run: climb a set number of rounds against rising enemy boards. Gold comes from each round plus a streak bonus and interest on your savings, so the real game is economy and positioning: front-load tanks, tuck ranged units behind, and reroll to chase the copies you need. Worth knowing: keep tanks in the front row and ranged units behind them so your squishy damage survives. Survive every round to the final to take the crown. It runs instantly in your browser on phone or desktop — tap to buy, drag to position or sell, with WebAudio sound you can mute and your best round saved locally. No download, no sign-up.
