[Android appstore][2012?] 2D war game like stickwar legacy

Played this game way back in 2012 and can’t remember what it was called nor seem to find it online looking for the defining things I remember.

I found it on the Android games store in 2012 so it could have come out a couple of years prior as I don’t remember it being a front page suggestion, I had searched for RTS or Kingdom or medieval games and it was somewhere in one of those results.

The theme was very much medieval fantasy, and the notable thing I remember is the game had cheat codes they posted on their facebook or twitter (now “X”) and these codes were colors and symbols representing elements. One of these codes unlocked the “Dragoon” troop/unit and I believe there were a few other troop unlocks, like a “gladiator” or “champion”. I think you started out with knights and archers you could spawn cheaply.

This game was a 2D battle game, much like those stickman war games or age of war games where you regenerate a single basic resource (I believe it was mana in this case) over time and tap the troops you have to spawn them and send them over to the right to fight the other troops coming from the enemy side.

The art style was pixelated, very similar to a game called pixel dungeon but the animation of the troops moving was sort of like someone was making a toy dance or walk for a child with the left and right bobbing. I definitely played this game in 2012 as I was 13 at the time and it was the only time I house sat with my grandma for my aunt. I even remember trying the sweet chili Doritos in the purple bag, and banana nut bread for the first time.

Unrelated: (Was also the time I went with her to pick up rent for my aunt who owned a couple houses I guess, my grandma jumped a curb, ran a red light and we were collecting money from people so it became a joke I was running the mob with my grandma.)

KEY DETAIL, it had cheat codes where you hit colored elements/runes and I think one of them was like fire, water, fire fire water, or something like that. There were a few red and blue combos that really vibed with my child brain. These codes were found posted on their socials and could unlock units like the dragoon (and maybe champion, gladiator?)
