Ready for orders, your majesty! In the epic odyssey Songs of Conquest Mobile, you’re a Wielder – a dauntless ruler who leads armies into turn-based battles against evil trolls and assassins. Strike out across a delightfully detailed pixel-art kingdom packed with towns to rebuild, mines to take over and mysterious ruins to investigate. Can you protect the land?

What we love: The richly imagined fantasy setting. Four intertwined campaigns – each featuring its own Wielder – bring depth to the game’s expansive world-building. There are dozens of ancient secrets to unravel, alliances to honour and enemies to vanquish.

Quick tip: Think you’ve got an easy win? Tap the Quick Battle button to have the result automatically calculated. Not satisfied with the aftermath? Tap Manual Battle to replay the fight with direct control of your forces – but be warned: this time the outcome will be final!

Meet the creator: The developers at Sweden’s Lavapotion grew up in the 1980s and were shaped by the era’s classic adventure games. Songs of Conquest Mobile designer Carl Toftfelt didn’t just craft the levels – he also wrote and sang the bard songs you hear between missions.
