Gameplay
In Conquest Earth, the player can choose to play as Jovians, aliens from Jupiter, or humans. Humans and Jovians have different menu layouts and tactics which they can employ for offensive and defensive actions.

The Jovians have several tactical maneuvers, including transforming into vehicles and other objects.
