Picture a short commute where you hatch an egg, check your habitats and queue a PvP battle before your stop. Dragon City from Social Point suits that kind of play: a free simulation game with a floating city, dragon breeding and arena fights across elements like Flame, Sea and Ice.
Social Point and a game running since 2013
Social Point publishes Dragon City, and its site is socialpoint.es. The game first appeared on July 2, 2013, and the current listing shows version 26.14.0, updated October 16, 2026.
The package ID is es.socialpoint.DragonCity. It is tagged as a simulation game with an Everyone content rating, and the store page carries 8 screenshots. The store text claims over 2,000 dragons and over 80 million players, but those are publisher figures, not independent counts.
Breeding, habitats and the Tree of Life
The core loop is city building. You place farms, habitats and training buildings, then expand to new islands that each bring their own terrain, challenges and rewards. Special structures such as the Tree of Life and Guardian Dragon Towers raise your power.
Collecting runs through elements. Flame, Nature, Legend, Sea, Electric and Ice are among dozens. Breeding can produce hybrids that mix elements, and rarities reach Mythical and Legendary. Resources need planning, since a larger city makes stronger dragons.
The Ancient World area, seasonal events, mini-games and exclusive skins add decoration and side goals.
PvP arenas and alliances
Battles run in real-time PvP arenas with teams you assemble. Elemental strengths and weaknesses decide which lineup works, and Orbs strengthen dragons as you upgrade them. Leaderboards and Warrior's Chests reward climbing, and seasonal tournaments run next to limited-time events.
Alliances add a group layer. Members can chat, plan fights, share gifts and open Alliance Chests that hold dragons found only through teamwork.
Android 7.0, ads and in-app purchases
Dragon City runs on Android 7.0 or newer and costs nothing to start. Ads and in-app purchases are part of the setup, so buying extra items for your floating city is optional.
