About

Stellar Conquerors

Features
Read full description

Conquer solar systems in just minutes! Stellar Conquerors places you at the helm of one of six species of warring aliens, wrestling for control of the galaxy. Compete in a fast paced space brawl, routing your fleets from world to world, avoiding asteroid belts, mine fields, and hiding in nebula. Your worlds build reinforcements automatically, allowing you to focus on strategy and reacting to your opponent's actions. Engage your enemy in campaign mode, conquering a constellation along a path through the stars of your choosing, or fight in endless procedural star systems, maintaining any boons and ability points gained throughout the run, or fight in challenge mode, a max difficulty single round where only the strongest survive. Between rounds, upgrade your species' stats, purchase new fleet types, and equip your ships with powerful upgrades. Additionally, discovering alien artifacts during your battles can alter your play style and turn the tides against even the strongest opponents. Higher tier difficulties don't just introduce better rewards and more difficult enemies, you'll also need to tactically choose your disadvantage each round, such as marauding pirates, unpredictable ion storms, and enemy insurrections from captured worlds. Some debuffs effect just you, and some effect everyone, potentially turning a disadvantage into a secret weapon. Stellar Conquerors has full GameCenter achievements and save/load support so you'll never lose your progress. Prefer an ad-free version? Purchase the ad-free option in the in-game store and you'll never need to be interrupted in your conquest of the galaxy!
