Build-and-battle games are the mobile strategy genre that Clash of Clans made famous. The loop is compelling: build a base with defensive structures, train an army of troops, then attack for loot and glory. Between battles, you upgrade buildings, unlock new troop types, and rework your base layout to hold off attackers. The dual nature of the gameplay, creative base building alongside tactical army deployment, is a big part of why it holds people's attention.
Makermint makes a 2D, single-player take on the genre. Describe your base, your troops, and how an attack plays out, and Makermint builds a playable version where you fight AI-controlled rival bases rather than other people's live bases online. It runs in the browser, no install required, and you can keep shaping the details afterward by asking for changes in plain language.
How it works
Describe your game
Tell Makermint what kind of build-and-battle you want: a medieval castle siege, a sci-fi base defence, a pirate fort builder. Plain language is enough.
Makermint builds it
Makermint turns your description into a playable game: a base-building grid, defensive structures, troop types, and an attack sequence against rival bases. The visuals are handled for you.
Play and iterate
Play the first version right away, then ask for changes in plain language: add a catapult defence, create a flying troop type, make rival bases tougher as you progress. Each request gives you a new version to try immediately.
Publish and share
When the game feels right, publish it. You get a link to send to friends, and you can post it to the Makermint community, where anyone can play it and remix it into their own version.

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Makermint generates the whole game from your description, base building, troops, and combat included. No coding is needed.
You can ask for a base-building grid, defensive structures, troop training, an attack sequence, upgrade paths, and resource gathering.
Not currently. Makermint builds a single-player version of the genre: you build your base and train your army, then attack bases the game controls. There is no live matchmaking against other people's bases.
Yes, optionally. Upload a clear, front-facing photo and Makermint can cast you as a character, such as your commander. It needs a detectable human face; pets and objects are not supported.
Most build-and-battle games take a few minutes to generate. You can then keep adding troops, defences, and features with the chat editor.
