For the first time ever, you can run your own kingdom in the legendary D&D game world. In this remarkable kingdom simulator, your goal is to become Emperor by building and expanding your stronghold in competition against opposing computer-controlled kingdoms.

Choose three courses of action to achieve Emperor status: Lawful (maximizing the prosperity and morale of your populace); Chaotic (total military victory over all your enemies); or Neutral (striving to achieve both objectives, the toughest challenge of all).

All the details of running a kingdom must be dealt with: Construction, farmland, population, housing, troops, morale and changing seasons - as well as a multitude of D&D game monsters. Micro-manage all these factors personally if you want absolute control, or let the computer do much of it for you.

Stronghold's striking visual presentation includes a ground-view camera angle that zooms in and out using 3-D scaling technology. A strategic map shows an overall view of your domain and troops, enemy forces, wandering monsters and combat hot spots. Music and digitized sound effects heighten the fantasy mood.

Choose from pre-created worlds or computer-generated random scenarios for a new challenge every time. With the intuitive mouse-driven command interface, running your own kingdom has never been more fun, fast or easy!
