Introduction

Inkvasion is ChillyRoom’s new strategy game, the studio behind Soul Knight. It blends town building, resource management and real-time combat: you grow a town, mine and farm for resources, and command your troops against the Inktide, a tide of ink-corrupted creatures. The game ran an open beta on Android in selected regions before launching worldwide on October 30, 2025, on Google Play and the App Store. Here is everything we know about it.

Town building and economy

Inkvasion’s core loop is town building. You place and upgrade buildings that strengthen your defences or boost the production of essential resources, and you mine and farm to grow a stable economy. The layout of your town matters: a well-planned base covers more ground with fewer towers and gives your troops better angles.

Every building has a specific function, which pushes you to think about placement rather than stacking everything in one corner. Resources are the backbone of the game — without a steady flow of materials, neither your defences nor your units can grow.

Real-time combat and the Inktide

Combat is real-time and tactical: you rally your forces for war and conquest, and every clash demands sharp strategy and bold choices. The Inktide sends wave after wave of ink-corrupted creatures at your town, so you adapt your defences and pick the right moment to attack.

In practice, upgrading your buildings and units between battles is what turns a shaky defence into a real army. The blocky 3D art style keeps the chaos readable, which matters when dozens of units clash on screen.

Open beta, then worldwide launch

ChillyRoom opened an open beta on Android in ten regions: the US, Canada, Brazil, the UK, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. Everywhere else, pre-registration was open on both Android and iOS so players could get the game ready before launch day.

The worldwide launch followed on October 30, 2025, on Google Play and the App Store. The game is free to download, with regular updates and in-game events promised by the studio to keep the community engaged.

Why try Inkvasion?

Inkvasion stands apart from other mobile strategy games because it mixes genres instead of picking one: the calm of town building, the tension of tower defense and the adrenaline of real-time battles. In practice, the loop is easy to start and hard to quit — build, defend, expand, repeat.

The risk for newcomers is the learning curve: managing resources, positioning defences and timing your attacks takes a few sessions to click. If you play tower defense or city builders, the fundamentals transfer directly. ChillyRoom’s track record with Soul Knight is the best reason to give it a try — and at a free download, the entry cost is zero.
