The fun of the tactical conflicts and persistent upgrade systems is unfortunately affected by consistent crash issues, including a regularly occurring one that could lock out the Crusader campaign entirely. With quality visuals and sound to complement the entertaining gameplay, it's really too bad this title was put up for sale without proper testing. After it's patched up it could very well be worth a look, but right now it's a hard game to recommend.

GameGrin Writes- "Holy war time! Yep, Lionheart: King's Crusade is a real time strategy based on one of the most infamous wars ever; the war between the Christians led by King Richard, and the Muslim armies of Saladin, both fighting over the holy land known as Jerusalem. This places you in the era of the Third Crusade, spanning the years 1189-1192. With this, you can expect a series of battles that take you throughout the Middle East on a drive to conquer all 16 kingdoms in the region - not forgetting the tonnes of gruesome bloody battles you will have on the way!"
Well, we really thought we had the holy land under control, but now the pesky sultan is messing around our turf and starting trouble. It’s time to go teach him a lesson.
Lionheart Kings’ Crusade is an RTS that allows you to join the 3rd crusade and decide where you would like to take history from there. You control hundreds of troops and fight through various locations and scenarios in your campaign to take back the holy land.
Name changes are all the rage these days. Remember Puff Daddy? Of course you don’t, because he doesn’t exist anymore. Rappers, actors, and professional wrestlers aren’t the only ones changing their names. Lionheart: King’s Crusade for PC has changed received a titular overhaul too. No longer bearing the title of Lionheart, the game is now called The King’s Crusade.
