Greetings, Sire. Your stronghold awaits you!

Stronghold leads you into the dark world of the Middle Ages where your castle is the safest place to hide. Build and manage your stronghold, lead campaigns and fight back the siege of your enemies. Dive into a compelling story about loyalty, conquest and betrayal.

Stronghold impresses with its lively depiction of medieval castle life. You will encounter bards, talkative peasants, arrogant knights, grumpy tunnelers and cold-blooded enemies. The highly detailed personalities and humorous game elements made the localisation pure fun. German game magazines and castle fans alike are full of praise for the quality of the translation and the professional voice talents.

Press Notes about
Stronghold
Deccember 2001
Computer Bild Spiele
"Voice talents/commentaries and texts/subtitles of the German version: First-rate"
Deccember 2001
Gamestar
"Fun without a language barrier - Flawless localisation - German castellans may sigh with relief: The translation is so excellent, they will get just as much enjoyment out of Stronghold as their English colleagues."
November 2001
Multimedia-Reporter
"A lot has been done for eager listeners. The musical backdrop is practically perfect, the voice-overs and sounds are excellent - regarding the VOs, that is also true for the texts."
October 2001
Gamesweb.com
"(...) Our praise goes to the dubbing actors, who did a great job bringing the dry humour of the British actors to the German version. Sir Longarm and Lord Woolsack in particular are great fun, and I had to stop myself from laughing whenever they began to argue."
