    A tower defense game combines with classic RTS feelings. Conan Unconquered does not look so attractive nowadays, it needs more enlightened ideas to impress gamers.

    Overall… it’s fun, but does get frustrating on the later levels… the fact you can’t save your game to try a configuration and then reload if it didn’t quite work simply adds to that frustration. At the current price tag I think it might be a little much… but there is a bit of value in the unlockable comic pages and the ability to play through as a couple of other characters is nice. Perhaps wait for a sale unless you happen to really like tower defense style gaming.

    Conan Unconquered isn't the most polished RTS to be released this year, but it is filled with unique ideas, challenging enemies and fun emergent moments.

    A scrappy and bloody brilliant strategy game that builds further upon the idea of survival strategy, Conan Unconquered doesn’t stray too far from its primary influence but it does offer plenty of unique substance that gives it its very own flavour. Now that, is what is best in life.

    Conan will forever be engraved in our collective memory as the name of the greatest fictional barbarian that has ever lived, and with such a great legacy to live up to, the burden of pulling off a good game based on the Conan mythos is great. The people at Petroglyph, a gaming studio renown for their great RTS titles of the past, challenged themselves to accept this burden, and as far as I’m concerned, they pretty much pulled it off.

    Losing to a devastating horde in Conan Unconquered makes victory later on that much sweeter. But it's difficult to know if this kind of challenge-based real-time strategy game can maintain a long-term appeal.

    Old dated graphics looks like a game that was made in 2004 and doesn't have any campaign mode and of course the Denuvo garbage (The DRM ofOld dated graphics looks like a game that was made in 2004 and doesn't have any campaign mode and of course the Denuvo garbage (The DRM of greedy awful companies). This is an incredibly boring game you basically only fight enemy waves and that's it. Game feels lacking and unpolished and everything is kinda repetitive. This core gameplay is more about management and less about strategy or about tactics. If you are looking for a good strategy game then look somewhere else don't waste money for this trash Full Review »
