''Whereas most expansions try to, you know, expand upon the core gameplay elements that made the base game popular in the first place, Stronghold Crusader Extreme goes in a slightly different direction: straight uphill. Developer Firefly Studios upped the difficulty in the new Extreme missions to such a terrifying degree that only the most hardcore need apply. But, says Firefly, that's the point.
We got our hands on the new expansion that will also feature the original Stronghold Crusader in addition to the limited edition content in addition to the new Extreme trail. That's a lot of content for a six-year-old game, but a solid bargain at only $29.99. That's assuming, of course, you can get past the first mission.''
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. I’ll be starting with Stronghold Crusader. Because of the way Stronghold Crusader is distributed here, I’ll be splitting up the spotlight into a couple of sections. This spotlight will be divided in two between Stronghold Crusader HD and Stronghold Crusader Extreme HD.
2K Games announced today that they will soon be releasing a bundle of five games from the PC real-time strategy series Stronghold. The Stronghold Collection will be released in North America on October 27th.
Only the first part and its expansion was worth playing.
