Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, developed by Blizzard Entertainment, is a classic real-time strategy game set in the medieval fantasy world of Azeroth. Released in 1995, players choose between the humans and orc factions, engaging in strategic battles for dominance. While its graphics may not meet modern standards, Warcraft II remains a significant title in strategy gaming history, influencing its sequels Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne.

The game features a cinematic introduction, base building, resource management, and tactical warfare. Despite its outdated graphics, Warcraft II offers detailed sprites, an epic soundtrack, and immersive sound effects. However, the game faces challenges with faction balance and a steep learning curve, lacking adequate guidance for new players.
