The original castle sim, Stronghold HD allows you to design, build and destroy historical castles. Engage in medieval warfare against the AI in one of two single player campaigns or online with up to 8 players.
With 21 missions to test your mettle and four renegade lords to defeat, it is up to you to reunite medieval England and take back your lands from the treacherous Rat, Pig, Snake and Wolf. Missions range from breaking sieges and capturing enemy castles to raising gold and holding off enemy attacks. Also featured is a full economic campaign, tasking players to gather resources and build weapons within the time limit.
Wield greater control over your army than ever before with new high resolution graphics! The new HD battlefield view allows you to zoom out and play in real-time, with the whole map on one screen. Advance on the castle gates while flanking the enemy from behind, feign retreat and lead your foe into a deadly trap or just sit back and watch the destruction unfold.
absolute classic, graphics are perfect, no need for hd versions or whatever reworks they are releasing
TL;DR: Everyone's favourite classic castle builder & siege sim, with slightly polished graphics, slightly updated modern system compatibility and an annoying but brief ad for their latest game stuffed into the bootup slides.
Stronghold is a very solid medieval city builder with a heavy focus on building castles, defending them, and occasionally besieging...
just Great
Stronghold is a classic castle-building strategy game that still holds up thanks to its unique atmosphere and satisfying mix of economy and warfare. Building and defending your fortress feels rewarding, and the campaign offers plenty of memorable moments.
