Songs of conquest pc12/31/2023 ![]() For that reason I have enjoyed the game just as much as majority of players that have left a written review on Steam (currently the game sits at “very positive” with 87% positive reviews). Therefore, I tested the game as it stood on its own, today, rather than making an actual 1 to 1 comparison to similar games from the past. I only vaguely recall HoMM games, having played them many years ago, but the visual and gameplay similarity between SoC and HoMM is undeniable, hence the “love letter to HoMM” sentiment and thus unavoidable comparisons to the older title.

Personally, I played and enjoyed Songs of Conquests on its own merit. This results in the fans of the game being split into two camps the one that knows nothing or very little about HoMM series and simply takes Songs of Conquest on its own merit, and the one that tries to hold up the game to the HoMM standards and measures. ![]() It reminds me a bit of the legendary status that Master of Orion 2 still has in the 4x space strategy genre, and as such it almost impossible to new games to ever quite match up to it. HoMM 3 came out in 1999, and is considered the best game in series, with other sequels never quite reaching the level of excellence. This genre – if it can be defined as such – has been sorely missing good titles. Love letter to Heroes of Might and Magic? Genre as such does not really have a specific name, but it is only natural to compare the Songs of Conquest to Heroes of Might and Magic, and perhaps mostly the third part of the series released in 1999, which is also generally considered to be the best HoMM game. Songs of Conquests is a turn-based strategy game that combines elements of an RPG, tactical combat and kingdom management in one.
