One Troll Army casts the player as a giant troll defending a goblin fort from waves of attackers. The goblins offer armor, money, and new moves in return for protection, giving the brawling a broader purpose than simply clearing each horde. The game combines a powerful single combatant with a settlement whose inhabitants and defenses must also be put to work.
Combat centers on twelve upgradeable skills, including kicks, jumps, quakes, and taunts, as the troll takes on enemies ranging from rats to large bosses. Meanwhile, goblins can be assigned jobs such as building, mining, and looting to gather resources, repair the fort, and construct defenses. Towers, barracks, catapults, and orc mercenaries add strategic support, while the fort’s buildings and weapons can be upgraded. A Twitch integration also lets viewers control units, adding a distinct audience-participation option alongside the game’s single-player and multiplayer categories.
Its core identity, though, is the contrast between one troll doing the smashing and a goblin workforce shaping the defenses around each fight.
