Our take on Interstellar Conquest
Its defining structure is turn-based fleet conquest across planets with different building potential, while asteroid fields, nebulas, and sensor-disrupting ion storms shape where ships can operate.
What is Interstellar Conquest?
In this turn-based space strategy game, lead a fleet while exploring the galaxy and competing for control of planets.
Worlds have varying class levels and building options; establish markets and factories on those under your control. Use asteroid fields and nebulas as you move between planets, while ion storms may disrupt ship sensors. Assemble ships for different roles, from nimble attack craft and gunships to larger warships and carriers. Select one of 3 factions, each with distinct abilities and strengths. Play premade scenarios or use the Map Editor to make custom maps. The objective is to establish dominance across the galaxy.
