Stronghold Crusader was a fairly engaging strategy game when it was released six years ago, but six years is an awfully long time for the PC platform. Crusader was the second game in the Stronghold series, which are medieval-themed strategy titles that task you with creating a viable economy that allows you to raise and maintain large armies. Unfortunately, the series stumbled with Stronghold 2, a buggy 2005 game that introduced a 3D graphics engine, and it hasn't really recovered since. So what to do if you're developer Firefly?
This is the first in a new series of articles I’ll be writing, which I’m calling the GOG spotlight. It will highlight some of the many “Good Old Games” available for purchase on GOG.com.

This spotlight will be divided in two between Stronghold Crusader HD and Stronghold Crusader Extreme HD.
