Starcraft Two

Starcraft was one of the best games of the year in 1996, It featured massive multiplayer game play ahead of it’s time. It placed 3 races against each other in an ultimate War for the galaxy an revolutionized on-line game play. Players had two game play options.

Campaign Mode – Players battle offline against the computer. The campaigns include playing as all 3 races. Each race campaign consisted of 20 different maps each with is own objectives an cinematic game play. As You progressed through each Campaign You would encounter each or all of the Alien Races in a unique situation which would become harder the further You progressed through out the game.

On-line Mode – Players created the world an it’s maps using the in game editor. Each map was designed by a player giving a new reality of game play. The sky was the limit, designing game play maps was the best feature in the game. It made the game better in every possible way by giving the player the same tools used to create the campaigns in Campaign mode. In on-line mode up to 16 players could play against each other in almost every situation that could be imagined by the map maker. The in game editor gave the ability to program the most advance feature of the game, an with a little practice one could create mini games inside the game.
