What Stronghold is
Stronghold is a real time strategy (rts) game developed by Firefly Studios and released in 2001. It was published by Take-Two Interactive. It is available on Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows).
The premise, in the publisher's words
Stronghold is a historic real-time strategy game developed by Firefly Studios. While the game focuses primarily on conquest and expansion through military pursuits, Stronghold does provide space for economic strategy and development: there is both an economic and a military campaign to be played and both are discussed in the game manual. The game takes place in Medieval Britain around the time of AD 1066, though, since there is sometimes no time limit, scenarios can continue to hundreds of years beyond this date.

It is played from a bird view / isometric perspective. Its themes are action, fantasy, historical and warfare. It is a single-player game with no multiplayer component. Available modes: Multiplayer and Single player.
