Warcraft: Orcs & Humans is a real time strategy game (RTS), that is, the contenders play at the same time and continuously, so that players have to move quickly. One player represents the Human habitants of Azeroth, and the other controls the the invading Orcs.

Each side tries to destroy the other by collecting resources and creating an army. In addition both sides have to ward off dangers from wild monsters, but sometimes can use some monsters as troops. The game plays in a medieval setting with fantasy elements. Both sides have melee units and ranged units, and also spellcasters.

Runs in Classic.

By default in SheepShaver the game is so slow it's unplayable (even when you play at "Game Speed: Fastest" in the preferences). To play at a almost full pace Ctrl + Option (Windows logo key) when clicking in the Game Speed drop down list. Some hidden options will appears. Select "Lunatic" (the last one) to play at almost full speed.

This was the game I played and knew Blizzard was gonna be big in the future. I was right. Awesome game.

The best Warcraft. This was when it was awesome; Warcraft II had some improvements like being able to select 9 units instead of 4, and sea/air units. However it also had the faggy Elves. Trust me; the original is still the best.

I think you could slow down mouse scrolling in the options menu, did you try that? Anyway, awesome classic, loved it. Wish someone could put up WarCraft II as well? It's even better than the first WarCraft..

Yes. You have to survey the terrain by moving the white square on the mini-map or by centering the screen on a unit.
