5.0 out of 5 stars great, April 7, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)
it's written in a first-person viewpoint, and it's a bit confusing at first, but if you follow what they're doing, everything turns out fine. that, paired with the amazing price I got it for (one cent) makes it awesome

1.0 out of 5 stars if u see this title, run away, December 24, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)
This guide blows. Those three words pretty much sum up the whole thing. Basically it shows u the maps for all the scenarios, and gives a detailed description of all the units.(fun to look at in your spare time, but not worth 20 bucks!) For the most part, the cheat codes are the only good thing. But if u need those codes to play the game, then u should take up another hobby.

This review is from: WarCraft II: Tides of Darkness: The Official Strategy Guide (Secrets of the Games Series) (Paperback)
The book is not helpful. It's written like you are a character in the game. The only good thing it has is the cheat codes. But you can just go to search under Warcraft Codes, and get a few puds while you're at it.
