Review: The First Templar

 Games is a relatively well-known game developer in terms of strategy and simulation games (for example Tropico 3), but it is his first attempt to develop an action game. The First Templar is set in medieval times. You get a quest about the Templars and all rumors that are known in the past. Despite the requisite clichés from movies and books knows this game very interesting adventure to keep a proper packaging. You will have to repeatedly laugh at the dialogue, although this may have to do with the voice actors. The First Templar is a typical low-budget game, and you'll quickly in his sights. However, the battles and events depicted remarkably smooth. It even has a little like Batman: Arkham Asylum - quite a compliment. You get the complete freedom to certain areas to visit, always associated with fighting. Block, attacks, counter, you know it all quickly. Gradually you learn more attacks, but in fact they add much excitement to the gameplay.
Graphically it looks poor out. Even with the best will in the world you notice that something is lacking in this game. It is also your immersion in the Middle Ages in the road. If you can directly compare Assassin's Creed, do your eyes hurt. The puzzles throughout the game are somewhat traditional: find a key, open a door, pull a lever, and so on. Few groundbreaking, interspersed with appropriate boredom. Surprisingly, The First Templar can play in cooperative mode. Online search for a partner - if you can find someone - and you're good to go. The fact remains that this game in every way a bit meager fails.

With a little good will we see something beautiful that the game developer holds, but the effect is much better. Wait and see whether any improved successor comes from The First Templar. The title late in any case, many options.
