When it comes to my most eagerly awaited mobile game releases, few titles excite me as much as Songs of Conquest. Although its spiritual predecessor, Heroes of Might & Magic, predates my gaming era, the blend of RPG-like action, strategic gameplay, and magical elements is undeniably captivating.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves; Songs of Conquest has just been released on iOS and Android, and it's a hex-based strategy game at its core. You'll command stacks of infantry, monsters, and other units, engaging in battles where you'll need to outmaneuver your opponent's army using both the terrain and the arcane arts to your advantage.
The game is rendered in beautiful 2.5D graphics and launches with four distinct factions: the necromantic kingdom of Loth, which was once a feudal barony; the remnant empire of Arleon; the ancient frog tribes of Rana; and the mercenary merchants of Barya. Each faction comes with unique traits, strengths, and weaknesses that you must master to prevail in your campaigns.
Aside from the familiar hex-based battles reminiscent of Heroes of Might & Magic, Songs of Conquest offers a visually stunning world to explore, equipment to enhance your capabilities, and four different campaigns. These campaigns allow you to experience the titular Songs of Conquest for each faction as you build and expand your empire through strategic gameplay.
For an upfront price of just $11.99, you can immerse yourself in a fantasy world filled with strategy, magic, and epic battles. With four DLCs already available for the mainline release, there's a wealth of content on the horizon, ensuring that your journey in Songs of Conquest will continue to evolve.
