Planetary Conquest
Read full descriptionHide full description
The solar system is up for grabs, Commander. Planetary Conquest is a real-time strategy game with a clean, low-poly look. Claim a homeworld, and every planet you hold grows its own fleet — tap a world you own, then tap another to send ships. Land more ships than the defender to take a world. Outproduce, outmaneuver, and conquer them all. • SOLO CAMPAIGN — authored levels, each with its own commander and a rising difficulty curve. Liberate the system world by world, all the way to the brutal final stand. • QUICK SKIRMISH — jump straight into a match against the AI on any world you like. • TWO GALAXIES — the familiar Sol system and the original Veil Expanse, twelve worlds each. • FAIR OR ASYMMETRIC — play perfectly balanced homeworlds, or let each world's real strengths shape your strategy. • BUILT FOR TOUCH — big tap targets, satisfying haptics, and a screen that stays awake while you play. One rule to learn, a galaxy to master.
