About This Game

Real time tactical board game, abstract graphics

You send commands to pods. Stack them up, move them around a procedurally generated board map known as a district. You need to re-conquer the districts of Earth and Solar System. Thousands of human and alien pods at your fingertips.

To conquer a district, move your target pod to the alien target tile. For victory, convert at least 80% of alien pods into your own pods, by covering your opponent's pods. Use your terraform pods to alter the terrain.

Game Controls

Pods from a selected perimeter can be instructed to defend / attack a target area, terraform and redefine the topology of the district.

Conquer Districts

Districts can be fought in any order by code, or in groups of nine forming Earth Campaigns. Statistics track how well you are doing at getting rid of Alien pods that occupy our Solar System. You can choose districts that are basic, or with large amounts of alien pods (thousands!), or requiring a lot of terraforming (more puzzle like).

Paths to Victory
