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.

4.0
A look back to when games were crappy.

7.0
The First Templar draws you in with delightful visuals and rhythmic combat, but technical foibles can lessen your fun.

5.0
Though The First Templar features adequate design and decent replay incentives, uninspired and repetitive gameplay severely limits this button-mashing adventure's appeal. Conspiracy fans and history buffs would do well to look elsewhere.

7.0
Virtual ratings prevent games with a small number of positive reviews from dominating the top of our rankings. See our FAQ.
