Conflicks is like eggplant: it’s a taste that requires effort to acquire. Once the feathers get smoothed out, though, there is a robust, entertaining game to explore. The battles become tense tests of creative thinking without forcing the players to figure out the solution the developer had in mind. Making use of each type of ship’s abilities in diabolical ways allows the player to feel like an evil genius, even when playing as “the good guy.”
Conflicks: Revolutionary Space Battles

About
The game universe is a futuristic alternate history of the European Renaissance that combines elements from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries with science fiction and an oddball sense of humor into a stylized, absurdist world that never takes itself too seriously. Conflicks can be played in a single-player campaign mode where missions are linked together by a story, as well as in multiplayer skirmishes.
Pledge your allegiance to Greater-Britain, the Celestial Empire, the Sacred Alliance or the Sublime Gate and harvest metamatter in the name of your emperor, or join the Chk’Rathii and lead the Revolution against those poultry-hoarding galactic despots!

Critic reviews
- 6.0Due to the dips in the narrative, Conflicks: Revolutionary Space Battles doesn't have a very high replay value, however it is a fun experience to go through it at least once. If the multiplayer mode ever becomes more popular, this game could perhaps be enjoyed a lot more.
- 8.0Conflicks – Revolutionary Space Battles is an incredibly fun RTS game that deserves to find an audience to help popularise its multiplayer mode. The campaign is a decent length and draws you in with its fun story, though there are a few dips. There is a lot of depth with the various ships which allow you to experiment with different tactics.
- Conflicks a su trouver un nouveau système de gestion des troupes grâce à son système de "pichenette" combiné avec la gravité des planètes, au milieu d'un univers steampunk mélangeant vaisseaux spatiaux et 18e siècle avec leurs tenues et leur manière de parler. Les combats ne sont pas vraiment épiques comme dans les autres jeux de stratégies, mais on doit reconnaitre l'originalité de ce choix. Ce jeu devrait ravir les joueurs qui cherchent de l'innovation dans les jeux de stratégie, mais les puristes pourraient être déstabilisés par ce système et ne pas l'apprécier.
