Songs of Conquest is a fun little game by a Swedish developer, scratches that Heroes of Might and Magic II itch pretty well. I also enjoyed the fact it's one large story told from a few perspectives so you get to see the same incidents and their reprecussions from multiple POVs etc.

Here's the gameplay trailer:

Anyway, thought you fine folks might enjoy a free and beautiful pixel art game!

But then I'd have to install and use epic game launcher. And windows. Pass.

I'm not sure either of those is true.

For me at least, Heroic Launcher grabs all my free Epic games and runs them delightfully on Mint.

Good point, I forgot I have heroic installed. I just don't ever play anything on there I guess.
