StarCraft 2 Another older game that continues to entertain, Starcraft 2 is a real-time strategy game from 2010. Released by Blizzard as a sequel to 1998’s Starcraft. It wasn’t until 2017, however, that the game became one of the best free games for Mac, unlocking the Wings of Liberty campaign, online multiplayer matches, and various game modes. Starcraft 2 now makes money through microtransactions for items such as skims, voice packs, and war chests. For the online multiplayer component, gamers select from one of three possible races: Protoss, Terran, and Zerg. No matter the race, players must take control of a large-scale economy that tasks them with gathering materials required for building their base and researching the technology used to develop an army capable of conquering their foes. And when it comes to battle, each facet of your strategy is there for you to micro-manage, right down to individual unit control. Although there is a single-player story campaign, the multiplayer component has received better reviews whether you’re looking to tackle co-op missions with a friend or compete against others in 2v2, 3v3, or 4v4 battles. System requirements: OS 10.11, Intel Core 2 Duo Processor, 4 GB RAM, NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M or ATI Radeon HD 4670 or better, 30 GB hard drive space. https://starcraft2.com/en-us/
