    Conquest of Eo offers an interesting mix of gameplay elements. The battle ist fast and challenging. I can still remember all the times I could outsmart the ai and win an unwinnable Battle.

    This is such a gem! You don't have that many options to set it up, but that's not your rando 4x game, where you do the same stuff over again and it gets boring after the initial exploration. This is an evolving game, where you learn and unlock new stuff all the time, figure out awesome recipes and combos. Keeps gettin better zhe longer I play!

    I used to play Age of Wonders II back in the days and this game reminds me of the good old days.
    The fantasy is quite generic but the combat and the progress system is really interesting.
    The fact that it's Steam Deck verified and the relatively low price makes it a must buy for the players who love fantasy 4X games!

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 21€ (now 30€) on launch day, I feel like I robbed them!
    A lot of people compare it with might and magic or age of wonder, but the campaign map and the crafting system reminds me a lot of TW Warhammer, which is a very good thing.
    I especially like the very short battles, that can be challenging, but if you find the right tactic (f.e. holy water crafting with the alchemist will destroy undead hordes in the south) the dynamics can change drastically. And with the huge map, as well as the various factions and quests, you won't get bored after a few playthroughs.
    Game of the year for now, at least for me!    … Expand

    Das ist Mal ein erfrischend anderes Strategiespiel. Nach unzähligen Stunden ertappe ich mich immer noch dabei "nur noch eine Runde" spielen zu wollen :)

    Google Translate:
    This is a refreshingly different strategy game. After countless hours I still find myself wanting to play "just one more round" :)

    The new Spellforce shows off flying colonial turrets, tons of interesting quests and tactical battles. All wrapped up in a nice audiovisual package. [Issue#326]

    It’s hard to call Conquest of Eo a sequel, because it’s so different from its predecessors. But at the very least, it’s a great spiritual successor, and it knows how to keep player’s interest. [page 60]

    This strategic Heroes-style spinoff does not hesitate to multiply new gameplay ideas. Most are even good and work well! A daring bet that pays off, despite some flaws.
