Description
The First Templar follows the story of two main characters – a French Templar, and his companion, a noble lady who has been proclaimed a heretic. Taking control over these two unlikely allies, the player must uncover the mysteries behind the Templar Order, play a role in a grand conspiracy, and discover the secret of the Holy Grail. The heroes face powerful opponents at every turn, including Sacracen, King Philip the IV of France and the Inquisition.

The First Templar features both single player and co-op modes. When playing solo, the player can switch between the two characters, leaving the control of the second hero to the game’s AI. At any moment a second player can join in and take control of the AI-controlled hero.

Key Features

  • Expansive Historical Game World: Return to the 13th century, where European culture is on the brink of collapse. 20 historically accurate locations from around Europe have been recreated for the player to explore
  • One player - Multiple Roles: Instantly swap between playable characters, focusing on the best skills for the job. Drop in/out cooperative play allows a friend to help out!
  • Fast Paced Action-Based Play: Unlock furious combos to unleash upon waves of challenging opponents

Great!

I thoroughly enjoyed this game; love the story, love the aesthetics, love the chronicles, love the gameplay, love the puzzles and co-op. It might not be a masterpiece, but it's worth buying. Tons of variety. Like a carnival.

Aged badly

The First Templar. Stuck and outdated gameplay, the controls are old and limited. With rough graphics, the proposal aged poorly. Despite being cool 3D, it is very linear in pre-defined phases, with established primary objectives interspersed with optional secondary ones. What saves is the story part, despite it being weak. The scenarios fit well into the environment where they are well represented. The songs suffer from little variety as there was a lack of depth on this issue. The voice actors lack personality and life, even with bad lip sync, it was well recorded while the volume is high and in good tone. Skill progression system is interesting but not very deep. You can buy all skills before the end of the game. With few extras it shows that at the time of release it was a relevant proposal but the limitations of the hardware at the time, not forgetting the DVD DL media, meant that the project lost polish and a little extra resources. They could have thought better about how to execute it. Recommended more for achievements and history than other factors. It's not worth how much they charge even on an 85% promotion, I wait for 90% or more to buy something that will get boring quickly.
