Can someone please reimplement something like Warcraft 2 on a mobile web device?

It would be a hit, I’m telling you. Even from 1995.

Some people are still playing it 30 years later, obsessively.

And myth ii by Bungie is a classic too

The controls would take some serious reworking to make it work on mobile - I could see adding a ‘pause’ feature to give you time to scrub your fingers all over the screen to issue all your unit and build orders, performant pinch to zoom would nearly negate the need for a mini map, lots of reworked GUI for building stuff and managing workers
