In the wake of playing Command and Conquer a lot, the childish look and feel of Warcraft 2 was difficult to pay attention to. Yet, when I dove further into the play of the game, what appeared to be infantile before long got charming. All things considered, the game is more sensible in its activity than in its designs—remembering that the illustrations were not expected to speak to the real world.

But once I delved deeper into the play of the game, what seemed childish soon became endearing. Still, the game is more realistic in its action than in its graphics—keeping in mind that the graphics were not intended to represent reality.

There is also enough graphic brutality to please most wargame enthusiasts. But after you've killed ten or twenty helpless "critters" and have witnessed the extremely disturbing yet comical way in which they expire, you tire of that novelty and concentrate on the mission at hand. Among the nicer touches in Warcraft 2 is the "Fog of War," which allows you to see only those parts of the battlefield where your troops have been sent.

If you have sent troops through an area and they were demolished, you will still be able to view that area's layout and buildings, but not the actual forces of the enemy.

There are also several video sequences that appear at points of major accomplishment in the story, but while they were a nice break from the action, I didn't really feel that they added to the overall quality of the game.

Game setup is easy, taking about 10 minutes or so. The only annoying fact I must mention is that if you load into Windows with the CD in your drive, you will get a little window about Warcraft 2 , asking you if you would like to install it, even if you already have.

This would seem to be a minor annoyance, which it really is, but once I was jolted out of bed because this screen popped up and started blaring some march music out of my poor Yamaha speakers. Moving on to more positive ground, I thought the documentation that came with Warcraft 2 was great.

Each unit is illustrated and its characteristics defined completely. The only minor gripe I had was that some of the descriptions were too colorful to be clear—for instance, some of the descriptions of the Mage's spells might tell you that the "Mage will use the lightning bolt to utterly vanquish the enemies of Azeroth from the sacred land.

Nevertheless, the manual provided a wonderful reference during gameplay. Often, while learning the game, I would see a chance to build a new structure and have my wife read the description to me, so that I could continue hacking away at those poor enemy dimwits who dared to get in my way.

If you're familiar at all with Westwood's Command and Conquer , you'll feel right at home playing Warcraft 2. You simply point and click on your guys and then click on the object you want them to manipulate This manner of controlling your forces makes it very easy to handle many tasks at once, which is paramount to success.

You are able to gather resources, scout new territories, and fight the mother of all battles—all at once. One advantage that Warcraft 2 has over Command and Conquer is the ability to build non-adjacent structures. This allows you to build guard towers and such at your camp's perimeter without "sandbagging" out there.

In Warcraft 2 , I also like the fact that you can rebuild all your structures: as long as you have the money and at least one peon or peasant to do the building. Comparisons aside, Warcraft 2 has a very intuitive and fun-to-use interface. The worst thing about the audio for Warcraft 2 is the narration before each mission.

Can you say "overacting? The various characters in Warcraft 2 have very distinct and colorful personalities, mainly characterized by their reactions to your commands—for instance, the peasant's cry "Yes, me Lord," or the Paladin's "For the King! Music itself is fairly nonexistent during the missions, which suits me just fine—it really isn't needed since the richness of the sound effects provides a nice backdrop for the action.

There is, however, some fitting, warlike music used under the narration and during the video sequences. I had a lot of fun playing Warcraft 2: Tides of Darkness. Although the game had its share of shortcomings, I felt that its good points heavily outweighed them.

I am pleased to award Warcraft 2 a generous score of Well, that was great and all, but it was not as amazing as it was on the PC. Warcraft 2 gameplay screenshot. User Rating:. Official Website. MobyGames Listing. Wikipedia Article. Update this info. Warcraft 2 gameplay screenshot DOSGames.
