What are Private Servers?

I have seen a couple questions recently asking about private servers for Clash of Clans. I looked them up online, and I can't find any information about them, only sites offering them. What are these private servers? Are they even legitimate?

Best Answer

I'm pretty sure they don't exist, given how Supercell operates. Their games can only be played on the servers that they provide. Any site offering a server is as legitimate as a site offering cheaper gems - it's a complete scam!

I even doubt a modded app would be able to run on a server that is not Supercell's.

To conclude there's a reason those questions are locked, and it's not only the rules! :D
