By that time the Templars were famous for having a legendary treasure. The royals and nobles of Europe believed that they were very wealthy and some even thought that during the visit to the Middle East the Templars had rediscovered the treasure of King Solomon and took it for themselves.

Paul Christopher's "The Sword of the Templars" has a certain familiarity about it; first of all, it focuses on the Templars, then there is an ancient object, a riddle to solve, and it all involves a sort of quest. Despite some criticism, Christopher's descriptive powers are excellent. His characters and situations are vivid, as are his geographic settings. His main character is Army Ranger Lt. Col.

[40] Mooney also praised the score, calling it "ambitious and beautiful" and saying it adds a very "cinematic feel" to the experience. Mooney said that the game's voice acting is "of supreme quality" with "delightful dialogue", but noted that long conversations might "turn some players off".
