Description
Conquest of the New World puts you in control of a native civilization or an expeditionary force from one of five European countries. Compete against other players in the hopes of establishing control of the New World during the sixteenth century. Not a game that simulates the actual discovery and colonization of the Americas, Conquest of the New World is generated at the beginning of each game and each New World (and game) is therefore unique.

Your job is to explore the New World, establish thriving colonies, produce and trade goods and eliminate your enemies or defend your claims from your opponents. Each player sets his own objectives for each game. For some players, winning the game may primarily involve finding lots of new landmarks in the New World and establishing many colonies.

The Deluxe Edition adds several new features to the game. Primarily it adds the option to create and play scenarios and customize the world. In addition, nations now have different bonuses, several special resources and discoveries have been added and you can form trade alliances with other nations.
  • Interesting gameplay featuring exploration, management and combat
  • Infinite replayability on customizable, computer-generated worlds
  • Discovering the uncharted during the Age of Exploration era

Doesn't work.

Every time I try to start a new game it dumps me back to the start menu. Same thing has happened on last 3 computers. Probably a simple bug that could be fixed.

Continuously crashes.

I've been playing this game since 1997. Never has it crashed so many times. It probably has something to do with the ESC key. Every reload/download has begun crashing. Obviously playing in a DOSBOX, i5, 65000, 12GB RAM, Win10 Pro.

conquest of the new world

I give this game a rating of 4 stars instead of five because playing against the computer at the hardest level is very fun but equally challenging. You need human opponents to make the challenge. The first making of this game you could put ships on lakes, I liked that, but they changed it with the delux version. When you have human opponents; this is a 10 over five game. the discovery of the map is fun. The battles are fun. Killing approaching enemy leaders is challenging. Promoting leader skills for effective defence and attack is challenging. In the early stages of the game comp opponents can possibly be challenging if they get a significant lead then attack with a vengence. Just need more human opponents
