Game demo

A game demo (also called shareware or trialware) is a version of a game that is limited in some way (lower level cap, time limited, reduced features, etc.) but otherwise gives a player a first impression of the full game. A game demo is an often, but not always, freely distributed demonstration or preview of an upcoming or recently released computer or video game.
Game demos of Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness and Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos have been released. Warcraft II and III do not have game demos of their expansions; Warcraft I never had an expansion.
World of Warcraft formerly had a trial version of its own which was replaced by the World of Warcraft Starter Edition. 10-day-trials for expansions that are yet to be included in the full game remain available to players who have purchased a subscription.
