Warcraft: Orcs & Humans is the real-time fantasy strategy game from
Blizzard Entertainment that quickly became a best
seller. Warcraft has not only become a classic, winning many awards,
but it has set new standards for multiplayer games. Set in the mythic kingdom of Azeroth,
players are given the task of maintaining a thriving economy while building a war machine
with which to destroy the enemy.
By playing either the Humans or the Orcs in this saga, two separate story lines evolve with
12 scenarios per side telling the tale of the battle for Azeroth. From swords to sorcery, all
the elements of classic fantasy are here to explore: rich forests, dark dungeons and bubbling
swamps await the stalwart troops amassed to fight for dominance. Command many unique armies
and creatures including Knights, Archers, Clerics, Warlocks, Daemons, Elementals, and the
Dead.
The multiplayer aspects of the game bring Warcraft to a new level of excitement.Challenge
another player on over 20 custom maps and determine who among you is the supreme
warlord. Head to head play is supported over modem, serial link, and IPX networks, and works
cross-platform with both the IBM-PC and Macintosh versions.
