Lavapotion has announced that the turn based fantasy strategy Songs of Conquest will enter Early Access on May 10. To mark the moment, the team released a fresh review trailer that showcases the game in action (Source: Lavapotion).
Described as a love letter to classic turn based strategy, Songs of Conquest nods to the style of Heroes of Might and Magic. Players pick a faction, build up their city, chart the map, and engage in tactical battles. The core loop blends city development with strategic combat, inviting players to balance expansion, resource management, and battlefield decision making (Source: Lavapotion).
Combat in Songs of Conquest emphasizes unique unit abilities, terrain advantages, and fortified positions across diverse maps. Each turn, units accrue Essence, a special resource spent to cast spells or activate powerful effects. The system rewards thoughtful positioning, careful timing, and the clever use of spellcraft to tilt engagements in favor of the chosen faction (Source: Lavapotion).
At launch, players will find two campaigns guiding the narrative, alongside an online mode and a collection of battle maps. The map editor enables players to craft custom arenas, expanding long term replayability and community creativity. Some players have noted workarounds related to platform restrictions, though official channels emphasize the ongoing commitment to a smooth launch experience for players across multiple regions (Source: Lavapotion).
