I just finished “Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness” a few weeks ago and I loved the entire experience. Well, I only finished half of the Orc Campaign and the whole Human Campaign (so 75% finished then). The reason for this was because when an enemy Paladin cast a spell, the game would crash. Which just sucked alot. And I e-mailed Blizzard and just got a canned response (as always) so I chose to end the Human Campaign. Even though I never clocked the entire game, it was still extremely enjoyable – and it only takes up 20MB Hard Guide Space! Now that’s regard! Anyway, I’m trying to remedy the conundrum so I can end the remainder of the Orc Campaign.
Ok, don’t expect the Graphics to be much excellent – they’re kinda cartoonish and rather pixelated – but hey, this is a 1995 Game! They’d only just invented the internet! But the graphics never bothered me and in no way detracted from my enjoyment of the game. I’ll give Graphics 7/10 for todays standards.
The sound was ok at best. The ancient sound drivers on the game didn’t go down that well with my sound card, so I got a kind of rambling and fragmented sound productivity when units spar and when sound effects came owing to. So sound back then may have been splendid, but on my new machine it was kinda crappy. Still, it didn’t bother me that much and was a minor conundrum (or so I reflect). Sound gets 6/10 for todays standards.
The gameplay is splendid! Plenty of bloody battles with footmen, archers, axethrowers, mages…man it felt excellent to ruin villages and kill every living creature within them! Gameplay gets 10/10, it’s still fantastic.
The copious units and various upgrades were really cool too. With the humans you get the following attack units:
1) Footmen – Basic Melee Units. Can attack land units only.
Mages – Mages can cast a number of spells to defeat their enemies including Fireballs, Slow, Invisibility, Blizzard and Polymorph.
2) Elven Archers – Long Range units that can attack land, sea and air units. Archers can be upgraded to Elven Rangers; which have greater armour, range and attack hurt.
3) Knights – Heavy Melee Units. Knights can attack land units only, but are quicker, stronger and more deadly than Footmen.
4) Paladins – These units are upgraded from Knights. Paladins can cast various spells, including heal, holy vision and Jettison.
5) Eleven Destroyers – Sea Units that can attack both land, sea and air units. These ships are very versatile and moderately strong.
6) Battleships – Heavy Sea Units that can only attack land and sea units. These ships are stronger and more powerful than Destroyers, but are very slow and cumbersome.
7) Gnomish Submarines – Sea Units that can only attack other Sea Units. These units are visible only to towers, air units and other underwater units. They are rather powerful but moderately weak with regards to armour.
9) Gryphon Riders – Heavy Air Units mounted by Dwarves. These units can attack all other units. They are rather quick and have a decent attack hurt and best used in groups.
10) Ballistas – Heavy Siege Units. Brilliant against buildings!
With the Orcs, you get these attack units:
1) Grunt – Basic Melee Units. Can attack land units only.
Death Knights – These Evil beings cast spells including Death Coil, Death and Decay, Quick and other spells.
2) Troll Axethrower – Long Range Unit that can attack land, sea and air units. Trolls can learn Berserker Strength and regeneratve abilities amongst other upgrades.
3) Ogres – Heavy Melee Units. Ogres are quicker than Grunts and much stronger and more powerful, but they can also only attack land units.
4) Ogre Magi – These units are upgraded from Ogres. Ogre Magi can cast various spells, including Eye of Kilrogg, Bloodlust and Runes.
5) Destoyers – Sea Units that can attack land, sea and air units. Like Elven Destroyers, these units are very versatile.
6) Ogre Juggernaughts – Heavy Sea Units that can attack land and sea units. They’re just like Battleships.
7) Giant Turtles – The Goblins captured these creatures and act as the Horde’s Submarines.
9) Dragons – The Dragons of Khaz Modan wield fire against their foes and are the exact match for the Alliance’s Gryphon Riders.
10) Catapults – Heavy Siege Weaponry. Splendid against buildings!
And there you have it. 10/10 for the units!
So by and large “Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness” or the Battle.net Edition get 85%. It’s a classic RTS game that revolutionised Approach sports meeting. If you haven’t played Warcraft, you haven’t played RTS – well, maybe you’ve played Red Alert, so maybe you have. Anyway, this game’s a must. You won’t regret playing it. I know I didn’t! Delight in!

It’s no StarCraft but it doesn’t have to be. The gameplay offers enough, tale, action and approach to make up for what some (not me) believe is a weakness in graphics. The game’s graphics are unadorned enough to prevent one becoming obsessively absorbed while being fascinating and plain enough to keep the player’s interest. For fantasy is so much more fantastic when one is still aware of reality. If a game pulls you from reality too much, it can become harder to notice that the fantasy is anything but mundane reality. With the ability to play online and to make your own maps, the tale and scenario possibilities are endless, making the replayability of the game nearly an immortal trait. Now that this game has been out for so long it makes a exact nostalgic collectible or gift to those who appreciate such gaming. It stands up to the merits of it’s genre.

Warcraft Two is a approach and battle game. Not turn based, timing is of the essence in gameplay, building your farms, barracks, training soldiers and pesants to mine gold and chop lumber quicker than your enemy in order to build your armies defeat the enemy.
But, I’ve found that computer opponents tend to be predictable, and so simple to beat. I’ve become adept at playing the same scenario with one, two, three, four, and even five opponents. Because the computer generated opponents are honestly unadorned, they don’t have much sense, and will get “stuck” at an obstacle, or rush blindly into traps. Still, with enough opponents the custom scenarios can be challenging and have you scrambling to keep up production of soldiers, catapults, dragons or gryphon flying fighters, and building parapet of farms and cannon towers in defense of the onslaught.
Depending on wether or not you’re playing as Orc or Human there are a few slightly different ways the individual charachters go or fight, and there are some entertaning speech recordings on all the charachters, just keep clicking them and they’ll react with annoyance, or seasickness, or the secret of the sheep flock!
A classic game, and one which is still fun to play, and is often much more reasonable in price than many of the newer sports meeting out on the market today. Watch out when using cheat codes, as many of them will give the same benefit to your enemy as they do to you.
