Im missing a lot of charm that w2 and first starcraft games had, and i did not see any open engine recreations, nor clones that lived to this day. With warcraft 3 i only ever finished half of the game, by the time sc2 came out, i was already too old to even bother trying.
Loria is a game from 2018 that is very obviously inspired by Warcraft 2. I remember enjoying my playthrough.
Came here to mention Loria as well. I like to call it “Warcraft 2.5”
