About
Matchstick Bastion is a strategy game: raise your village of living matchsticks, defend the First Flame and raid rival villages to climb the leagues.
• BUILD YOUR BASTION
Lay out your village your way with 15 kinds of buildings: Sawmill, Ember Kiln, Wood Store, Ember Vault, Drill Yard, Muster Ground, Workshop and defenses. Upgrade the Bastion to unlock new buildings and levels.
• TOWERS THAT DEFEND ON THEIR OWN
Flame Towers, Bowstick Towers, Pinecone Catapults, Pine Slings, walls and Spark Traps protect your village while you are away. Then watch every defense replay in the Battle log.
• RAID VILLAGES
Train Spearsticks, Bowsticks, Kindlers, Logsticks, Snatchsticks, Spark Slingers and Ember Guards and attack other players or Shadow Villages. Choose where each troop lands: stars, loot and trophies depend on your strategy.
• SHADOW SIEGE
30 wave-defense stages against the Shades. Place your towers well and drop the Spark Shower at the right moment.
• LEAGUES, RANKINGS AND FRIENDS
Earn trophies, climb the leagues, compete in monthly seasons, check the rankings and add friends by code.
• THE FIRST FLAME
Explore your village with a free camera, follow eight short chapters and learn through the illustrated in-game guide. Join the Spark Festival, Night of Shades and Lantern March, with clear goals and known, free rewards.
• MISSIONS AND THE FLAME PASS
Daily missions, achievements and the Flame Pass with every reward listed up front.
• A CLEAR SHOP
Sparks only buy known content: speed-ups, missing resources, an extra builder and cosmetics. Nothing random is for sale, no chests, no draws.
Play without signing up and save your progress whenever you like with Apple, Google, Facebook or email. Available in English, Portuguese and Japanese.
