JRR Tolkien's Middle-Earth: Orcs - Revenge of the Ancient

Adventure Game from Sierra

Strategy/adventure game. You'll be able to take control of the orc villains in Tolkien's famous fantasy world. The aim is to build a camp and train a force of orcs that can be sent to complete the diverse objectives which you will be set. Orcs will come in two main varieties, with their own strengths and weaknesses. Training will involve putting the orcs through their paces in areas such as weapons and defensive skills, magic use, strength and will power. Particular buildings in your camp will concentrate on these various areas. You control of the orcs in groups of four. In battle the way in which they respond to your commends will vary, largely depending on their level of discipline. The game will have a strong plot developed largely through a Clan Council screen where the members provide you with useful information and advice, as well as new objectives. Alongside the single player game, will be a multi-player mode for up to six people via LAN or on-line. The game's graphics, design and audio promise to be good.
