The Game of Thrones franchise has tried to make up for all the fans that have been missing the show on television by releasing a game by the name of Game of Thrones Conquest (GOT conquest) by Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. But the game so far has not been well received by the fans. Game of Thrones Conquest is a multiplayer strategy game that shares the basic fundamentals with all the strategy games already available in the market.
Gameplay of Game of Thrones Conquest
From the very beginning of Games of Thrones Conquest, apart from a few interactions with some key characters of the show, you already know you are in for a ride you are already familiar with. You have to build structures like barracks, sawmills and the usual requirements of any game of this type. Then you go on to upgrading these, building an army and go out killing creatures.
Game of Thrones Conquest is set in medieval times. The player go on getting loot and spending it on shenanigans. Throughout, the game follows the same tired pattern of the classic Clash of Clans type. Further if you are looking for anything from the Game of Thrones theme, lets say a lot of blood spilling or immoral relations, sadly this game doesn’t have any of it. So the game lacks innovation and also fulfilling the theme it is based on. The game which was supposed to be one of the most expensive games is just lacklustre in all areas. Makes you wonder if there was any money spent apart from the Game of Thrones licensing.
In App Purchases
If we talk about the in app purchases, the scene is pretty bad there too. Since most menial and even common things cost a fortune you are more likely to waste that money on food rather than something this unrewarding.
Money Maker
Game of Thrones Conquest Made around 20 Million Dollars in April 2019, and crossed more than $ 200 M in May 2020. The game made a money, by indulging players in microtransactions. It grabbed a lot of money during Game of Thrones Last season on air.
Overall Impression of Game of Thrones Conquest
In all the game completely fails to impress either the gamers or the Game of Thrones fans, even those who fall into both these spheres. Which I guess is a very difficult thing they have achieved. Considering the kind of franchise and money they had, they could have come up with something much more interesting and playable.
