"She told me that there has been an outbreak. Outbreak of a new, dangerous, scary and lethal, yet unknown disease. Not only has the disease spread on our country, but also throughout the whole world. During one week, a hell has broke loose. This is not a small epidemic to fight. This is a massive pandemic, and the human life is at stake"
CONQUEST OF LIFE
Your name is Collin Matthews. That is all you know for sure after waking up from a three-day unconsciousness. You find a note which is left to you by someone named Johan. An outbreak has occurred.

Good atmosphere with no cheap scares
Careful level design with great detailing
In-depth storyline
A totally new soundtrack made specially for this mod, by enzo2090
Lots of custom stuff
Challenging and few unique puzzles
Lot's of different areas to explore
RELEASING: 2020, no estimations yet
MOD PROGRESS PERCENTAGE: 71%
Stay hyped for future updates! I will try to update the progress as much as I can and I will try to constantly write you development diaries.

Articles
Hey everyone following CoL or not following, I finally got some motivation to write an article after a long time
Just today I realized that I have let Conquest of Life to fall to the second page of mods. I do not mean that in a way that this mod must be in the first place all the time like some mods seem to, but rather that I have not updated this mod in a long time. I have been struggling a ton with my motivation as some of you might know already, and therefore there was really nothing to update about. However, now I am here writing about the future of this mod and the future of myself.
The mod is not and will not be cancelled. No matter what happens it will be finished. I will jump to the Moon or walk through a boulder, but the mod will be released. Despite the state of the community as it is now, (the community of which my thoughts are purely negative at this exact point..) I have not given up.
Why?
Because I know that there are a few people who actually try their everything to keep the flame of the community lit to the last sparkle. I will put my two cents by finishing the mod I have started over a year ago now (holy **** actually, it is been so long already). My dream when I was a little Shyrtexx in 2012 was to create a good custom story. I have made two custom stories already, not being satisfied with either of them though. Deep inside me I know that I want to finish it, and I know that there are people who care about this project. I promised myself to make a good custom story and promises are meant to be kept. This is no exception.
TL;DR: The mod is alive and will be continued soon.
Upcoming and/or already included features:
- I have decided to include four (4) endings to the mod. As cliché as it will be, there will be a good ending, a bad ending and interestingly the worst ending too. The fourth and hidden ending will not be spoiled here.
- The hidden book feature from The Chosen Ones will be included in Conquest of Life too. However, this time it will be slightly different. There is no predetermined amount of books (but obviously there will be a maximum amount). Practically, the message when you pick up a book will be called "Xst/nd/rd/th hidden book found" instead of "x/x hidden books found. Also, rather than being empty books and bland and boring, each of them will have some text included. The texts will be some references to my previous mods or simply other custom stories. The most determined Amnesia custom story fan will surely understand all the references :P. Also, a little lore will be included. The lore is about the history of the Quencey mansion where the mod is set. There will be a "book series" about the history and each book contains a small bit of text. Together combined, they will make up for a full "article".
- Voice acted story
- A new way to give scary pressure to the player. No spoilers at all now :P
- Lots of minor easter eggs/secrets
I will be working on the mod now and you can expect to get to see a few new pictures soon.
Thank you for reading and stay hyped,
Shyrtexx

After being saddened by the fact that this is left discontinued, I'm still glad I gave this a go since it went under my radar when it came out.
Now, since I just played the Orion remastered, I'm even more sure about the 6.5 score I gave there. THIS. IS. IT. This is how you do mods, it's by far the best stuff you have created.
Design is a bit outscaled by the new version of Orion, but that's the only thing. Take some inspiration there design-wise, and this is what I'd like to see continued in your next release.
- Clever usage of base assets on multiple occasions
- Nice atmosphere for the most part, bit too simple undergruond, and a bit too many lamps above.
- Unique puzzle elements. You already took my advice on being more creative like with the fire, water and earth puzzle before, just continue along this path.
- I'd try experimenting with different monsters, but the brute did its job here, and it wasn't overused.
I'm glad we could try this out, I wish you luck in your current projects!
I am extremely late with my response, but I am so glad you liked the demo this much! Once Year Zero is finished, I will also finish Conquest of Life. Thank you once again!
Sorry for the unnecessary update, I removed a translation from here. I don't support incorrect spam.
молодец,возьми с полки пирожок;)
I do not understand your language
dead?
Unfortunately yes - but I have another mod on works, titled Year Zero - check it out!
Sorry for the unnecessary update, I set this back to TBD. For some reason the site put this as released
Hi i just finished the mod and the demo was good, when is the full version coming out?
Unfortunately I think never. I am working on another mod at this moment (Year Zero), and that mod includes maps from this mod. After I finish that mod with a friend of mine, I will work on The Chosen Ones 2 which is kinda like this mod with similar atmosphere. Thanks for the comment!
I'm really looking forward to Year Zero (and this one too of course).
