SAN FRANCISCO — Dead men tell no tales, but they do build plenty of towers.

Developer Game Insight revealed a spin-off of its pirate-based mobile game, Cloud Raiders, during GamesBeat 2015 today. The new title, Cloud Raiders: Survival Arena, is a tower defense game that focuses on competitive gameplay. The original worked around persistent buildings and shorter game sessions, which is a popular route for mobile hits like Clash of Clans and Game of War. Survival Arena’s focus on longer play sessions and competitive action shows that mobile gaming can still accommodate players looking for deeper, more intense experiences.
