Real strategy game made by the Blizzard entertainment. StarCraft's gameplay centers on the acquisition and control of two resources: minerals and Vespene gas. They are harvested by worker units. Minerals, which are required for all normal units, appear as blue crystalline formations protruding from the ground. Vespene gas, which is required for advanced units and upgrades, appears as a geyser with green clouds erupting from it. A particular structure must be constructed before worker units can harvest the Vespene gas.

Some buildings allow the creation of new units, while others upgrade the players' forces or allow more advanced units or structures to be built. Each of a player's units demands a certain quantity of supply, which is provided by buildings or units particular to each race. Players must maintain enough supply to support their forces, lest they become temporarily unable to produce additional units. In standard games, the maximum amount of supply that can be used at any time for each controlled race is 200, limiting the total number of units any player may have. In the Brood War expansion, the Protoss Dark Archon unit can capture worker units from other races. This does not add to the Protoss supply limit but instead creates a new supply group for each controlled race.


It is LAN game and could also be played in the net.
