Stronghold 2 is a medieval-themed strategy and simulation game that allows players to experience life as a ruler in a historically inspired setting. It combines elements of castle building, economic management, and warfare. Players are tasked with governing their kingdom, which involves making decisions that can range from benevolent to tyrannical.
From peasant to king
Stronghold 2 features an intricate economy and a detailed crime and punishment system. Furthermore, you can engage in jousting tournaments and lavish banquets, or focus on military aspects like siege warfare and combat. The game also includes a ‘Kingmaker’ skirmish mode where you can gain honor and compete for dominance.
The Steam Edition enhances the original game with several features, such as Steam multiplayer support, achievements, visual enhancements, new maps, and more. It also integrates with Steam Workshop, allowing you to create and share custom maps and scenarios. However, newcomers to the series or genre can find the game challenging.
Moral choices and leadership styles
Stronghold 2 is a captivating blend of castle management, strategic warfare, and medieval life simulation. It’s characterized by its deep and complex simulation of medieval society, where every decision impacts the well-being of the player's subjects and the strength of their domain.
Expand your lands while you build and fortify your citadel. Entertain with jousts, lavish feasts and tournaments with an iron fist and dispense medieval justice to your overworked and slovenly peasants. Stronghold 2 is the most accurate, amazing and dynamic depiction of siege-warfare and castle-life ever portrayed.
This is the story depicted in this excellent adventure: the King, having fled after the defeat of his armies, now attempts to rule his country from a secret location. It is not known if he is even in the country anymore. Now, powerful barons jostle for what is fast becoming a disintegrating kingdom. It is up to you to stem the tides of their ambition and unite the land under the King once again!
