Hmmm...
To do:

Lots of changes include:

  • The Chinese version of Clash of Clans is overhauled.
  • More unused content. This includes early versions of TH15 Pets.
  • Pre-release article featuring Project: Magic, including concept art from sources like the Art of Supercell.

Clash of Clans is a strategy released for iOS and later Android. It has since gained a following and has gone on to be one of the highest-grossing and most-downloaded apps of all time.

RED Gems Offer

Between November 24th and December 8th of 2014 and 2015, iOS users were able to purchase a special gem bundle to contribute to AIDS research. When they did, they received a red shield on their Town Hall. The bundle is still present in the game, albeit disabled, along with the red shield graphics.

Test Localizations

Inside locales.csv, there are several unused languages, probably used for UI testing : Quad String, DoubleDouble String, Double String, Test Language, Empty Texts, Longest Word, Longest Text. The last one has a link to this site, presumably used for testing as well.

Unused Loading Screen Hints

The following hints are currently visible to players with a Town Hall level of 999+, which is impossible to achieve in the game, therefore they are unused. They are stored in hints.csv.

Join the Clash of Clans Forums! Look in Settings - More.

You can't change the name of your village. Your villagers wouldn't know where they live!

Since name changes are now possible, this second hint doesn't make sense anymore.

Unused Clan Regions

Regions.csv has five unused regions named CUSTOM1-5. They cannot be set in the game.

Unused SFX

Clan Castle Deploy V2

A variation of the jingle that plays when you deploy Clan Castle troops goes unused.

Santa Spell

Around December 2012, there was an update that added the Santa's Surprise spell. This spell was later removed, as it was too overpowered, thus leaving the sound effect paired with it unused. In December 2016, this spell was added again, but removed on January 2017 again in December 2017, this spell was added again, but removed on January 2018. This removed the Santa Spell easter egg from Goblin Picnic.

Debug Menu

Elementary, my dear Cactus.
This needs some investigation.
Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page.
Specifically: Is it actually accessible?

A debug menu was found inside the file libg.so.

Unused Graphics

Santa Spell

Coc SantaSpell Icon.png

The Santa Spell icon goes unused too.

Birthday Boom

ClashOfClans-Birthday2017.png

The Birthday Boom icon goes unused.

Plants

Two unused decorations, named env_npc_plant1 and env_npc_plant2, were found inside the "buildings.sc". As their names imply, they would've been used in NPC Bases. If injected to appear in the decorations menu, their name is "TID_Passable_Stone".

Mega Gem Box

This bigger version of the gem box was featured in a joke video, but the graphics for it were left in the "buildings.sc" file.

royale.sc

There is an interesting file called royale.sc, that contains 3 old screenshots from Clash Royale. These graphics are called "clash_royale_softlaunch_event_item". You can see this file here.

Puzzle and Dragons

This was used when Clash of Clans collaborated with Puzzle and Dragons to add exclusive troops in a limited time event. There is a file called "promo_puzzle_and_dragons.sc" in the game. Unfortunately, there is nothing too much interesting in it:

CoC PuzzleAndDragons Promo.png

It's probably from a now-ended event.

Dummy Files

Hmmm...
To do:
List where are those dummy files. They are everywhereǃ

There are some dummy files inside characters.sc and many other files.

Archer Tower

There is an unused sprite of the ruined Archer Tower in the Builder Base, which was intended for the ruined nature of Builder Hall 1.
