Airships: Conquer the Skies

Great game, only one of its type

I genuinely loved playing this game, I even bought it twice.

GOATed game, peak aesthetic, great modding, fun conquest mode.

highly unbalanced.
your nation will receive debt (as a result of a world event) not even a crackhead could accomplish in a lifetime whilst the other AI nations which should be effected, simply continue to build. If they fixed this among other issues, it would be an almost perfect game. Because of this reason, most campaigns are ruined after many hours.

very nice) civ-esque elements are not for me, so I just play sandbox

This is a great game I like that you can customize your airships and you can join other player and battle their airships. And the solo dev did a great job and the mod support is good and easy to use.

Really Cool!! The only game that i've really seen where you can make designs for vessels and build them in a sort of RTS environment.

addicted and fun !

Fun game with the building mechanics and having to balance things like weapons, armor, ammo, engine power and sometimes lift in order to make a successful vehicle that doesn't weigh 10,000,000lbs. The Ai is decent to fight against without being too difficult to ruin the fun! I'd definitely recommend it!

Game good

Caused me to lose sleep, 10/10

A desperate war between a mercenary company and a death cult. The discovery of what man can do to another for ideology and fickle politics. The pointlessness of the suffering. Conquerors of a land that has become a graveyard, devoid of resources and beauty. War is hell, and the funny airships game has opened my eyes to the absurd horror of it all.

All i know is airship go boom makes fun game

really fun game, get to design airships, do diplomacy and then get blow up since the enemy had a hero with crash zone and i had no landships.

10/10

A good bit of fun.

Do you like big vehicles? would you like to create your own big vehicle? look no further.

This game is really fun and not overly complicated like some other games in this style (looking at you From The Depths.) I was very sad to see that in app purchases were getting put in, i was then very happy it was an april fools joke!

Good

its fun

Incredibly fun ship builder.

could use some performance updates though, along with AI improvements and would love to see more interactivity in the conquest mode.

its fun u can build a big plane

this game is very fun! the building is enjoyable

This has a lot of building to offer; however, the actual conquest is terrible. You spend so much time researching and rebuilding, by the time your are ready to battle... it's too late. Your neighbors are too advanced. This could be a great game as the building is fantastic. I would not recommend this, unless you just like building.

Pretty Fun. Huge map with starting tech level 3 is my go to.

I love this game, I recommend it, BUT I've found that the "Ages" mechanic can sometimes grind the game to a halt and make me not want to play. I wish there was a way to disable them, or at least turn down their effects. It's annoying when I'm finally building up some momentum and then getting hit with like an Age of Monsters and all my plans have to go on hold for multiple in game years while I fight unending monster nests.

the OG and GOAT of ship builder conquest genre.

Everyone in the reviews "omfg games great AI so gud now"

picked it up, playing the tutorial, tells me to maneuver my ship and captain will move straight but will stop before hitting something.

Immediatly slames into a fucking rock. restart

did it again... said to heck with it and let my ship be stupid cause 2 canons could hit teh target.

next mission same thing. Mission after that I attack another airship, we immediatly slam into eachother and fire canons.

great game :/

looked cool tho

Very fun + high replayability + Cool design + modding + deep immersion + small silly moments haha + decent AI + making your own ships / tanks / buildings + good sound + insanely handwritten map + awesome DLC + pleasent music + roleplay potential .

smudge my bean slushie all over monitor
10 / 10
would

:)

PLAY IT .....NOW

i love putting an ammo storage in the middle of my airship and then having it be cut in half when it explodes

Big explode. Giant man-eating spider robots. Everything is on fire. All praise the great vurm in the sky.

9/10 Fantastic game.

amazing base game, but the modding community just make it perfect

i love this game i have made many things (workshop items too) and its is very good

Conquest mode falls short due to frustratingly inadequate AI opponents, hindering what could have been a very enjoyable mix of RTS and design games. The AI feels unfinished. Opponents will often attack the player with their entire fleet, and refuse to build any defences in their own settlements. Or, the AI will quickly form an alliance with the rest of the map against the player as they are backed into a corner. This harms the replay-value.

big gun

Has great potential but the state of the current game (mostly AI) prevents it from reaching that. Would recommend if it was in early access but seeing as this is the finished state I cannot recommend.

Airship go brrrr

Super fun game to play, especially with friends!

Very in depth mechanics. Good for singleplayer, can be hilarious in multi

id recommend watching some videos on the game beforehand, much more fun after understanding the system

It's a very simple but enjoyable blend of building and designing and overall strategy and city management. Definitely worth trying, and it supports an indie dev instead of some massive company.

one of the best games i ever bought, enjoyed every hour so far, mods add soo much new content so you can never get bored. 10/10

Super fun, without giving an in depth review, this game is 100% worth it if you like management and design.

The game is excellent, with a variety of customization options for creating ships and forts, the game is worth the money. If you've played stellaris or CIV 5, or risk. This game has all those elements into one.
The game mechanics can deliver a lot of strategies to winning a game, whether it's being diplomatic or just being a straight up conquerer (very difficult BTW). Give the game a crack, like the reviews it's worth it.

Great shipbuilding, a fun little 4x-lite procedurally generated campaign map, and satisfying pixel explosions. What's not to like?

Put gun on airship, make other ship become Hindenburg. Very fun and neat strategic elements

I really like the idea, but there are way too many irritants for me to call this a success...

I get that balancing a strategy game is tough, but some of the artificial balance adjustments are bonkers. It feels like enemies don't bother with supplies, and that npc tech levels are seemingly random. heavy steel armor minutes after starting the game? sure..

it's a little barebones in places but if you're the kind of person who daydreams about what "The Best Steampunk Ship" would look like, then you might as well give this a try. the music's decent and the gameplay modes are fun. the writing is kind of cheesy but it's thematically appropriate.

all glory to the wurm

I dove into Airships Conquer the Skies just yesterday and have already logged over 8 hours of gameplay. The freedom to design and experiment with various airship styles is an absolute trip, offering a sandbox of creative possibilities. Not only can you build and customize your airial fleet, but you can also craft equally complex land ships - all the complexities of airship design without thewhole flying thing.

The campaign mode is engaging, set in a world where multiple kingdoms vie for dominance. I particularly appreciated the ability to design and build your own town defenses, adding an extra layer of strategy as you fortify your base. The tech tree further deepens the experience, ensuring that each decision in the campaign can impact your overall strategy.

On the economic front, there's room for growth. While the game currently offers a straightforward approach to city building - with towns and cities that feel somewhat uniform - a more complex economy could have taken things up a notch. For instance, a trading system would have been a fantastic addition, opening up new strategic avenues and making the world feel even more dynamic.

Overall, Airships Conquer the Skies is a solid and imaginative title that skillfully blends creative ship-building with strategic gameplay. It might benefit from a few additional layers, like a more robust economy and trading system, but it still delivers plenty of fun and innovation. I’m excited to see how it evolves in future updates!

Edit: I just discovered multiplayer, Oh boy am I in for a treat.
