Not bad in campaign mode, but the bugs drag the game down in freeplay to an unplayable level.

User Rating: 5.7 | Stronghold 2 PC
There are some nice additions to this game since SH, with added content and 3D engine upgrade, but the serious technical bugs drag it down enough to prevent playing it beyond the initial campaign. That is unacceptable, especially with a series that was such a hit originally with a loyal fan base that would have waited for a finished product. Especially considering it is based on such a simple, proven game engine and gameplay style. If you can get this game for under $20, it will give you enough value to justify the purchase, otherwise play the demo and be happy.
