Play Conquest (1983) Online

Conquest came out in 1983 as part of the MS-DOS Classic Games collection, a time when strategy games were just starting to find their footing on personal computers. It was developed by a small team whose names are mostly lost to time, but the game itself was a solid, no frills entry into the turn based strategy genre. You won't find flashy graphics or complex lore here; it's all about the mechanics and the mental challenge.

You control a small army, moving units across a grid based map to capture enemy castles. The main objective is straightforward: eliminate all opposing forces. Key mechanics include managing supply lines to keep your troops in fighting shape and planning multi turn attacks to overwhelm defenses. The pacing is deliberate, almost chess like, and the difficulty can be punishing if you rush in without a plan. It feels like a tense, quiet battle of wits where every move matters.

Each game uses different controls, most DOS games use the keyboard arrows. Some will use the mouse , "Alt" ,"Enter" and "Space bar".
