Interplay?s Black Isle Studios division is one of the best things ever to happen to computer role-playing games. Many of the best RPGs from the last five or six years have been Black Isle games: Fallout, Baldur?s Gate, Planescape: Torment, and Icewind Dale are all part of this brand. Considering that amazing track record, it?s easy to get excited about Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader, Black Isle?s latest RPG. Unfortunately, while it does bear some similarities to earlier games from Black Isle, it?s generally just not as good. It?s primarily a hack-and-slash game but the combat tends to be unsatisfying the production values seem dated, the difficulty is uneven and sometimes excessive, and the original alternate-history setting isn?t enough to compensate. Even so, the game has some merits, and it can be entertaining for Black Isle fans who don?t go in expecting too much. Lionheart isn?t the first RPG to feature an alternate-history setting, but it still deserves credit for trying to do something different. According to the game?s fiction, Richard the Lionheart?s 12th-century Crusades resulted in a cataclysmic supernatural event called the disjunction, sort of a Pandora?s-box-opening style of event that unleashed all sorts of magic and evil into the world. The game takes place in the 16th century in the wake of the disjunction, but despite the unusual setting and the presence of some historical figures such as Leonardo da Vinci, William Shakespeare, and Nostradamus, Lionheart basically tells your average RPG story, in which your character is a reluctant hero destined to thwart a great evil.
