In Conquest of the Fallen Lands, players must free the land invaded by hordes of monsters, and win back the treasures they plundered.
The game board is made up of hexagonal tiles representing encampments, fortifications, orc scouting parties, dragons etc. Each tile has a difficulty level.
Players take turns conquering these tiles by playing troop cards on them. Each conquered tile creates new opportunities to tackle tougher tiles around it, both for you and your opponents (so you have to be careful!)
Conquering a tile gets you a reward equal to its difficulty level. This is used in the game to purchase assets and abilities, and it is also used to determine the overall winner at the end.
A number of magic cards introduce special effects and abilities that can greatly benefit the players.
The game includes two rule sets, Normal and Advanced. The Normal game is a lighter game that plays with little downtime and yet has a lot of strategic depth. The Advanced rules lead to a more complex game.
