![]() First, we have the game that started it all – Warcraft: Orcs & Humans! And though it may seem overly simplistic by today’s standards, the first Warcraft game was quite influential in the 90s, primarily because of how it helped popularize multiplayer in RTS games. Story-wise, the first entry in the series only set a basic premise that the future games would expand upon: Orcs, a once-peaceful race from the world of Draenor, have become corrupted and violent. Using the Dark Portal, they invade the human kingdom of Azeroth, which must do everything in its power to fend off the brutal invaders. That said, Warcraft: Orcs & Humans doesn’t place as great a focus on the story as its more popular sequels do, but the way it handled the plot was more than adequate for the time. On the gameplay front, it features only two factions – the titular Orcs and Humans. And just like with the story, the core mechanics established by the first game would be further refined in the later installments: there are only two resources to gather, gold and wood, and the game focuses on small armies that need to be controlled with care.
