Playing Clash of Clans on PC is about the same gaming experience you would get if you play the game on mobile. However, certain perks are available to you with keyboard and mouse.

Here are the advantages of playing Clash of Clans on PC:

  • Keymapping: You can map commands such as deploying units or activating Hero abilities to certain keys on your keyboard.
  • Accuracy: With a mouse, you can accurately deploy troops on the edge of tiles if you want to test the limits of their attack radius and also enemy defense attack radiuses. This will beat the scattered troop deployments that you've probably done on a small mobile screen.
  • Bigger screen: Playing on PC would grant you a bigger screen to play Clash of Clans with.
  • Multi-account functionality: On an emulator, you can sign into multiple Clash of Clans accounts. Not exactly a massive perk for most users, but can be useful if you're smurfing.
