Sandy original sense of the atmosphere and the old-fashioned special effects together in close scary movie episodes of the game really helped, not hurt. The new one is too colorful, too lively and too general "nice". The game was met with very positive reviews from critics, receiving a combined score of 93% at Metacritic. Similar to its predecessor, StarCraft II, was praised as the new features make the gameplay and storytelling improved, but the criticism of the game features the original StarCraft, but was removed from StarCraft II, as the lack of multiplayer and LAN play regions split decision. The first month of sales, StarCraft II, has sold a total of 3 million copies worldwide.
