CaptainSparklez has launched his free to play competitive tower defence game Fortress Fury on iOS and Android.

Set in a fantasy land called Forterra, the idea is to summon soldiers and build fortresses with arcane magic and alchemy to defend your home from attackers.

The game focuses on real-time multiplayer matches so your opponents will be other players. These can be friends you've invited, or random players in globally ranked matches.

While building your fortress you can choose from thousands of combinations of weapons and building materials. Loot can be collected to open up new materials.

There are also Energy Crystals to be used to "boost your potential." You can earn these in-game and also buy them with real money.

Whether you're familiar with CaptainSparklez or not, it doesn't matter. All you need to know is that he's a YouTuber who focuses on gaming with nearly 9 million subscribers.

His real name is Jordan Maron and, as well as making YouTube videos, he's been working with BluBlox games to create Fortress Fury.

Previously, we covered a legal issue that Maron ran into with ZeniMax Media. Speaking on behalf of Bethesda, ZeniMax didn't want him to use "Fallout" in his game's title.

The reason being that it could apparently lead to confusion with Bethesda's post-apocalyptic RPG series Fallout.

Rather than disputing the matter with an expensive court case, Maron decided to change the game's title to Fortress Fury.

You can download Fortress Fury for free on the App Store and Google Play right now.
