Game guide

A browser strategy game on a tiled world map. Send troops from your land, clash with other nations, and shift the front with buildings, weapons, and alliances. A match usually lasts a few to about fifteen minutes. When it ends, your result counts toward this month’s country war board.

• —Open tiletake.win.
• —Enter a nickname (letters and numbers). Leave it blank for a random name.
• —Pick a map — East Asia, Southeast Asia, Middle East, Asia, Europe, Africa, the Americas, or World.
• —Tap Join the war (public) or Create room (friends).

Join the war puts you in a public room on that map. The match starts when the room fills or the wait timer ends. In-game language follows the country you connect from.

Occupancy counts land tiles only. Sea does not count.

There are no 1–4 keys to pick a send percent. Click your tile, then click a destination. Troops keep flowing while the route is open. At 0 troops the route stays active; production refills the source to 20, then departures resume. Reinforcing a tile that is already at max troops does not stop the stream — excess arrivals are lost.

Tiles show troop count, level, and a flag. Use the flag when colors look alike. Dragging only moves the camera — send troops with two taps.

Every tile has a level from 1 to 5. Higher levels hold more troops (cap 100–500) and make more gold. The capital you pick is always level 5. Other levels are scattered across the map.

• —You start with 200 gold and 100 troops on the capital.
• —Troops grow by 1 every 0.5s on your land. Growth continues even while under attack. Only EMP and bio halt it.
• —Higher levels allow more simultaneous outgoing streams from the same tile (level 1→1 … level 5→5).
• —After capture: 100 garrison troops and 50% less combat damage taken for 10 seconds.
• —Gold comes from land and buildings. Spend it on buildings and weapons.
• —Land routes are the default. Crossing the sea is slower, and longer trips take more time.
• —A port speeds sea travel. Two rail stations make troops leave much more often.

A short tap on your tile selects it as a troop source. Building takes a long-press. On an empty tile the wheel offers Build or SOS. One building per tile. Gold is spent up front. Cancel construction and you get half the gold back. Ports only work on the coast.

Long-press a factory you own to open weapons. A short tap only selects it for troops. Pick a weapon to spend gold and start production. One ready shot sits in that factory. Long-press again to launch, then tap a target. Farther targets take longer. EMP, nukes, and supply may ask for confirmation.

• —Tap a nation on the occupancy list to send or accept an alliance. Up to two allies per match. Mutual requests form instantly. Requests expire after 45 seconds.
• —From your tile to an ally’s tile, choose Reinforce or Attack. Reinforce sends troops with no friendly fire. Forming an alliance stops attack streams between you.
• —Attacking an ally or hitting them with EMP breaks the pact and marks you Traitor: 3 min of half gold and double damage taken. The victim deals double back and grows troops twice as fast on tiles bordering you.
• —You cannot re-ally the same player for 2 minutes after a break. A nuke only warns if allies are in range — it does not auto-break the pact.
• —Late in a match, a weaker player cannot ally a leader above about 50% occupancy.
• —If an ally betrays you, a toast shows their flag, color, and name. Long-press your land to SOS. 30-second cooldown.

Create room opens a private war. Only people with the link can join.

• —Pick a map. You can preview it first.
• —Set a player cap. Each map has its own maximum.
• —Confirm and you land in a room lobby with an invite link.
• —Copy the link. It looks like tiletake.win/room/code.
• —Everyone picks a nickname and a color. Duplicate names are blocked. Very similar colors ask for a second look.
• —The host starts the war. Others can ask the host to start.

Join the war looks for a public room on your map. If none exists, one is created. The match starts when the room fills (cap depends on the map) or the wait timer ends (cap × 5 seconds). Bots may join while you wait. Colors are assigned when spawn starts. Short how-to cards cycle on the wait screen.

You do not pick a country. It follows where you connect from. The board ranks countries, not nicknames. A new season starts each month on Korea time.

• —Score = peak tiles ×5 + weapon launches ×20 + buildings started ×25. Finish place and final occupancy are not in the score.
• —Matches under about 45 seconds score nothing.
• —Win, loss, surrender, or leave all use the snapshot at that moment. Leaving does not apply an extra penalty.

Eight maps. The cap is humans plus bots. The world is wide. East Asia and Southeast Asia are quicker fights.

• —Pick a capital with room to expand. It is always level 5.
• —A stream starts if the source has at least 1 troop. At 0 the route stays open; production refills the source to 20, then departures resume. Select a tile to see outgoing lines, then close dry fronts.
• —Support to a full tile keeps draining the source; troops above the cap are lost on arrival.
• —Any capture cuts every stream linked to that tile — whether you took it or lost it. Re-open the route after capture if you still want troops flowing.
• —Spend gold on barracks, cities, then a factory. Late missiles swing the map.
• —Allies are strong. Betrayal is expensive. A nuke only warns; EMP breaks the pact.
• —Do not trust a long sea trip without a port. Troops arrive late and often get cut off.
• —When the match ends, copy the result link and share it.
