Game of Thrones: Conquest is a mobile strategy game that immerses players in the world of Westeros, the fictional continent at the heart of the Game of Thrones universe, which is based on the A Song of Ice and Fire series by George R. R. Martin. Developed by Turbine, this mobile game allows players to take control of a noble house and engage in the political intrigue, military conflicts, and power struggles that define the world of the hit television series. The game blends traditional strategy gameplay with elements of RPGs, offering fans a deep, interactive experience where they can build armies, forge alliances, and vie for control of the Iron Throne.
The game begins with players choosing a noble house, such as House Stark, House Lannister, or House Targaryen, each of which has its own unique strengths and characteristics. As players progress, they manage their house’s territories, resources, and military units. The ultimate goal is to claim the Iron Throne and become the ruler of the Seven Kingdoms, a quest fraught with challenges and dangers. As with many strategy games, managing resources efficiently and making smart decisions in terms of alliances, troop movements, and tactics is key to success.
One of the core mechanics of Game of Thrones: Conquest is the strategic element of resource management. Players must gather resources like food, wood, and gold to build their armies, upgrade their cities, and strengthen their defenses. This is where the game draws comparisons to traditional real-time strategy games, as players must carefully balance their resource gathering with the need to expand their power and influence. In addition to resources, players need to recruit and train a variety of different units, ranging from infantry to cavalry to siege weapons, each with its own role in combat. The game also allows players to recruit famous characters from the Game of Thrones universe, such as Jon Snow, Tyrion Lannister, Daenerys Targaryen, and others, who can be assigned to lead troops and provide special abilities in battle.
