Interstellar Conquest is a barebones game that promises more on the store page than is actually present. The core mechanics is simple, you take over planets, build up your colony, go around and take over your enemies' territories while overpowering them with your fleet of ships.
The game has no introduction or tutorial, so you have to dive in and try to figure it all out yourself. Fortunately for the basic nature of the game and lack of content, there is only so much to do and figure out before you are on your way to completing the game.
Oh, there's also no campaign. You literally run with one from a set of pre-generated maps and populate it with other AI opponent(s) and go. There's the 3 different factions but nothing to tell you what they do or how they differ. There's nothing that gives you ideas on how to progress or advance. You just take turns accruing currency to keep building and expanding, and then engage in fights when needed.
There's no save game, you just play each map until your game is over. Or you quit and restart at a later date I guess. Not sure why this basic function is completely omitted, just like a start-up tutorial.
Skip over this game and move onto something more interesting. This is not worth your time or money. This game feels like it belongs in the late-90s, not mid-2020s as we are in now.
After a few hours, I was wondering what the heck I am doing wasting my time.
