    More than just an expansion - technically, I think the game could be considered a sequel with all the depth that is in the game. If you have Reign of Chaos, this is a must buy for you and RTS fans everywhere.
  2. Game Chronicles
    100
    If all the features that come with the game aren’t enough value for your hard earned gaming dollar, well you’ll be playing for at least 60-80 hours on the campaign alone.

    Frozen Throne has wonderful controls that are smooth and really intuitive. Plus the game adds a whole slew of new things for players to control, from units to heroes.

    The quintessential expansion pack; with more to do, see, and experience on many different levels. [Sept 2003, p.122]
  5. PC Gameworld
    89
    An enjoyable expansion despite the terrible dialogue and subpar story from the original continuing on.
  6. FiringSquad
    87
    Manages to fix the balance problems that crept up in WarCraft III, but is unable to fix the fundamental problem. The game remains at an uncomfortable middle-ground between strategy and tactics, not giving enough of either or focusing explicitly on one.
  7. Adrenaline Vault
    60
    The single-player game’s extreme difficulty will throw off many people, and the less than satisfactory ending will leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Even if I prefer the more macro heavy playstyle of other real-time strategy games, because of how the editor of this game works and what you can do with it makes this game not only contain a campaign or its intended RTS style gameplay, but gave birth to thousands of games inside of it. Some of them include version of Mario Party, Tower Defense and probably the most known of them all: DOTA.… Expand

One of the best stroy telling in its Genre with an amazing story, Frozen Throne is not an easy game to beat in its single player campaign. One, should play this expansion before starting WOW series inorder to have a full understanding of the events. It is not satisfactory to read it from forums since it is important to feel like Arthas before killing him in WOW. Arthas had reasons before walking through his dark path. 10/10    … Expand

Лучшая русскаяМоя самая любимая игра forever, я играл в её с детства и очень любил, попозже познакомился с дополнением и полюбил ещё больше. Лучшая русская озвучка из всех игр которые я игра/слышал, лучшая стратегия на своё время, вообщем игра и правда года (того года). Однако передалка Рефорджа мне не понравилась. А вот оригинал - неповторимая доля ностальгии, офигенного сюжета, бомбической озвучки, крутой стратегической боёвки, кастомки, игра по сети, всё это - Вакрафт 3. Все те, кто не играл в эту игру обязаны в её поиграть как минимум на прохождение Reigh Of Chaos, так вот, лучшая игра которая была создана человечеством.… Expand
