Been playing for years
I don't know when I started playing Stronghold Crusader. It has aged extremely well. Still fun today. If I had to chose one game for the rest of my life, this would be it. Burning the enemy never gets old.

Excellent
Great old strategy game. I've got very fond memories of using pitch to annihilate oncoming enemy hordes(my good friends' of course).... I cannot wait to do it again

My favourite RTS of all time!
I have played many RTS games in my time and there are lots of good ones out there however Stronghold Crusader is the games I keep coming back to. I bought the game on release having played the original and loved it straight away, as other reviewers have stated it plays much better than the original with no major bugs. The game play is simple, however strategy for each of the crusader maps isnt always obvious and obtaining the resources and the base of your economy (to make gold) can take a while to establish. The sheer number of units available and how well the game played back in the day on a low end machine without slowing is amazing. The AI is pretty good and the various enemy charcters live up to there abilities and at the same to can be very amusing especially The Pig and The Snake who never fail to make me laugh when they realise they have lost. The harder AI oppenents can put up a good fight but I think its fair to say when you have played the game alot you can match them, having said that the game is still entertaining. I still play this game today having the original CD version and amazingly it plays on Windows 7 with no problems, I play using a third party piece of software to be able to play in windowed mode as the top resolution is 1024x768 as the gfx look a little stretched on todays high res widescreen monitors, but Im assuming the guys at GOG are on top of this as they usually are. A great RTS and a must buy from GOG, if you are an RTS fan you wont regret it.

Review for mac
I love this game. By the time you finish reinstalling it over 30 times, due to glitches, you will hate it.

By Far the Best
This is by far the best Crusader game of the series. For the sale price you have to pick this up. Just remember it's and older game. Super addictive and hours of fun. The campaign is just phenomenal with each new mission presenting a new set of challenges. I absolutely love Crusader though it seems like there is a little bit of a secret formula that once discovered will get you pretty far before you have to start adjusting your tactics. To me this is a quintessential tower defense game with economy considerations. The music is really good too and there is just something about watching your villagers and troops run around in 2d isometric view that appeals to me. Great game, a true classic.
