Before you jump in

The Wine-Assembly launcher runs the original StarCraft shareware demo. Its current startup can go straight to a Terran mission briefing; press Start after reading the objective. Base management and squad control happen in real time, so watch both production and combat. This is a demo entry, not StarCraft Remastered or the complete three-race campaign.
