About Stickman War

Stickman War is a one-lane strategy game: two bases at either end, a single battlefield between them, and a stream of stick-figure units marching at each other. You spend the gold your miners collect on spearmen, swordsmen, archers and giants, and try to build a wave that reaches the enemy base before theirs reaches yours.

The genre — often called a 'lane defence' or 'army push' game — rewards economy management over reflexes. Spend everything on soldiers and you stall; spend everything on miners and you get overrun. The whole game is that balance, and matches last a few minutes.

  1. Start with miners — they collect the gold that pays for everything else.
  2. Buy fighting units and they walk automatically toward the enemy base.
  3. Units fight whatever they meet; numbers and unit types decide who wins the clash.
  4. Upgrade your units and base as gold allows.
  5. Destroy the enemy base to win the level.

Stickman War tips

  • Two or three miners before your first fighter. Economy compounds; a lone early swordsman does not.
  • Send units in groups. A trickle of single units dies to a stack of three.
  • Archers behind melee units, always — they do nothing in the front row.
  • Hold back a wave when the enemy is pushing; let them come to your base's own defences.

Stickman War — questions

How do you win in Stickman War?

Balance economy and army. Buy miners first so gold keeps coming, then send fighting units in groups rather than one at a time, with ranged units behind melee ones. Destroy the enemy base to finish the level.

Is Stickman War multiplayer?

This build is single-player against the computer across a series of levels.

Does Stickman War work on a Chromebook?

Yes — it is a light 2D strategy game that runs in the browser with nothing to install and plays entirely with the mouse.
