This is the first game in the StarCraft series. For other games in the series see the StarCraft category.

StarCraft is a real-time strategy game developed by Blizzard Entertainment for the PC in 1998 and for the Macintosh in 1999. Blizzard released an expansion later in 1998, StarCraft: Brood War, commonly acknowledged to have correct many game balance issues and leading the way to its eventual recognition as standard to which all other RTS games are compared to. Set in the future, on planets far from Earth, it features three races: the human Terrans, the psionic Protoss and the bestial Zerg.
