Welcome to the world of Castles. As a lord or lady of the realm, you've built the castle of your dreams, battled bloodthirsty dragons, engaged in brutal treachery, sent troops abroad to war, and defended your land against marauding enemies. But they're still not happy. Maybe you shouldn't have poured hot oil on their heads...?
And now, with "Castles II: Siege and Conquest" you can experience even more. It is the year 1311. The King of France just died and because King Charles didn’t have any heir, it is up to you to take control of as much of France as you can. If you manage the Kingdom properly and the Pope gives you the blessing, then you will become the King of France.
Castles and Castles 2, bundled together, are games of medieval diplomacy, treachery and power. To win, you must survive. To survive you must scout the surrounding territories, defeat the local militias, subjugate the land with castles, feed and maintain the people, forge diplomatic alliances, appease the church and unite the land under your iron fist.

A game in need of an update.
A game that was probably really good when it came out. Even on the easiest difficulty, it is a serious challenge. I love the premise and the gameplay, but the AI is too much. A game that is in desperate need of an update or re-imagining. All in all, the first hour of the game is a lot of fun. Then the difficulty becomes too much and not fun for me to play.

Another Interplay Strategy Classic
I played this as a young man on my ... 286? 386? I really can't remember. But it was awesome, and those damn welshmen always seemed to knock over my castle at some point. The cutscenes (as such) also proved to be amusing at times. I got the original manual around here somewhere, I'm sure :o) It had a photo on the back of the development team, which I thought was pretty cool.

Good game.
I never played the second one, but the first is one of my fonder memories. I played it for weeks on end. The castle design was so much fun. I still remember the castle building music. I also remember how bad I was at it. Later on as an adult I managed to install it and beat it soundly without even trying. The manual was a very fun read too. It gives a fun little history of life as a peasant. It turns out this was one of blizzard's first games. Before that blackthorn and lost vikings and all of that.

Blast from the past
Castles 2 was my first introduction into gaming, way back in 1994, on my 386si 16mhz. The amazing strategy elements mixed with diplomacy and the ability to plan castles was what sucked me in. Its horribly dated by todays standards and I would love to see a remake, but I will take the old one for now. I have never played the first one, though.
