WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness

Description

Azeroth is the setting for the real-time strategy game WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness, a fantasy-themed follow-up to WarCraft: Orcs & Humans. The orcs are getting ready to invade Lordaeron and take over the remaining human, dwarven, and elfin realms after taking over the kingdom of Azeroth in the first war. The humans, elves, and dwarves banded together to fight back against this invasion in an effort to avoid suffering the same fate that befell the kingdom of Azeroth.

The game has a ton of new features, including the ability to fight not just on land but also on the sea and in the air, SVGA 640x480 resolution graphics with many newly-rendered buildings and units, multiplayer support for up to eight players, a Red Book audio soundtrack, and a scenario editor that lets players create their own scenarios. WarCraft II is a DOS-based game, although the editor requires Windows 3.1 or later.
