The game depicts the events following the fall of Azeroth, with the remaining survivors fleeing to the northern human kingdom of Lordaeron. It also received a single expansion titled Warcraft II: Beyond the Dark Portal. Platforms: MS-DOS, Classic Mac OS, Microsoft Windows, Sega Saturn, Sony PlayStationĪ sequel titled Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness came out just over a year after the original game, and though it didn’t differ much in terms of graphics or the mechanics, it expanded and streamlined the overall experience. It was released only for MS-DOS and Classic Mac OS. Needless to say, Warcraft: Orcs & Humans had all that made Warcraft RTS games great, and the sequels would only expand and improve upon the foundation that it set. And just like with the story, the core mechanics established by the first game would be further refined in the later installments: there are only two resources to gather, gold and wood, and the game focuses on small armies that need to be controlled with care. On the gameplay front, it features only two factions – the titular Orcs and Humans. That said, Warcraft: Orcs & Humans doesn’t place as great a focus on the story as its more popular sequels do, but the way it handled the plot was more than adequate for the time. Using the Dark Portal, they invade the human kingdom of Azeroth, which must do everything in its power to fend off the brutal invaders.
WORLD OF WARCRAFT 3 SERIES
Story-wise, the first entry in the series only set a basic premise that the future games would expand upon: Orcs, a once-peaceful race from the world of Draenor, have become corrupted and violent.
First, we have the game that started it all – Warcraft: Orcs & Humans! And though it may seem overly simplistic by today’s standards, the first Warcraft game was quite influential in the 90s, primarily because of how it helped popularize multiplayer in RTS games.
