Build a growing colony and battle for control of the board in a fast paced strategy game where every choice matters. Your colony expands automatically as new units spawn into nearby cells. Each unit has a different role in battle, from durable tanks to powerful ranged attackers and protective melee fighters. Units stay in position and automatically attack enemies within range, creating constantly changing battle lines across the board. At regular intervals, the match pauses and you choose one of three upgrade cards. Improve unit spawn rates, evolve specific unit types, increase overall colony growth, convert units into stronger roles, or build toward a specialized strategy. Every match develops differently depending on the upgrades you choose and how your colony forms. Features : - Four player colony battles - Automatic unit spawning and combat - Tank, melee, and ranged unit roles - Strategic unit evolution - Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary upgrade cards - Randomized upgrade choices - Fast matches with constant colony growth - Different strategies and colony builds every match - Simple controls with deep strategic decisions Grow faster, evolve smarter, and become the last colony standing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Colony Wars at none against Smash Dash RTS's 10. Colony Wars also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 10 days). Smash Dash RTS's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
