Army Attack features two gaming modes: 1) Player vs. Non-Player (PvNP): 'Liberating City & Villages' and 2) Player vs. Player (PvP): 'Versus Mode'.

During the 15th Annual Interactive Achievement Awards, the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences nominated Army Attack for "Social Networking Game of the Year". [6]

This game was officially closed down on 4 November 2016.

PvNP: "Liberating City & Villages"

In the PvNP: "Liberating City & Villages" mode, the main objective for players is to reconquer lands captured by the evil Crimson Empire, and, in doing so, to build up their own military and resources by building structures. [7] The player must also launch attacks against non-player characters and accomplish other objectives to complete the single-player campaign.

PvP: "Versus Mode"

In PvP mode, called "Versus," Army Attack players battle each other to increase strategic and tactical skills. [8] On an Army Attack strategy map that is stylized for this type of play, players select their military units beforehand; the player clicks a unit, then dispatches it on the map. If the player's unit is in range of another player's unit, then an attack may be ordered.

In "Versus" mode, a weekly tournament is held amongst players where they can compete for some exclusive in-game rewards.
