Guide
How Games Like Similarity Works
Mechanics-based Android game similarity on Planstrix — not affiliate payouts.
Feature vectors
Each game stores a mechanics feature vector (0–10 per dimension). Similar games score overlap on alliance, base building, hero collection, survival, and more.
Why not 100% match
We penalize L1 distance so near-clone strategy titles still rank highly but read as differentiated — typically Strong or Close, with only the top organic pick labeled Closest.
Sponsored separation
Paid placements must be labeled Sponsored and cannot alter Games Like ordering. Affiliate disclosure is at /affiliate-disclosure.
