The military nature of Stronghold Crusader is very well done: it offers intricate combat, thanks to the numerous units available, which provide depth to the traditional system of real-time strategy games (where archers confront pikemen, who at the same time confront cavalry). Multi-player mode has all the little things to keep you entertained, above all else through an excellent on-line cooperation mode, which allows you to join up with a friend to control the same army. In different game-play modes (campaign, skirmish, multi-player), you undertake missions that are assigned to you or to protect your king, attempting at all times to defeat your sovereign enemy. Stronghold Crusader II returns to the basics of its predecessor, offering an excellent mixture of strategy and tactics that will captivate newcomers.
Put yourself at the front lines of the war, manage the economy, and finish your opponents with shots from your catapult! A Game with Varied Strategy and Game Play Stronghold Crusader adds a very engaging tactical element to mechanics that are similar to that of Age of Empires, in that one must develop one's own castle. Stronghold Crusader II is the continuation of the excellent strategy game from 2002.
