Passage of the game Cursed Crusade, The. The Cursed Crusade Walkthrough The Cursed Crusade walkthrough


Syrian desert. Winter 1198


1198 The era of the Crusades. Jean de Bayle, a knight of the Knights Templar, in all his glory describes his feelings about his participation in the Third Campaign. He regrets leaving his family and his hometown behind. However, he believes that he has acquired something more - freedom.
After a fight with enemy soldiers, his friend, Marten, gives Jean a mysterious box, which obviously contains something valuable. Martin believes that in the hands of Jean "It" will do more good. Jean leaves.

Chapter 1. Task 1 - Winter Evening


Lost Souls

France at the same time

Jean de Bayle, the hero of the prologue, talks about his son, Denze, who decided to follow the example of his father and become a Templar. Jean's brother betrayed their family and appropriated all the wealth for himself. Another hero is also presented to our eyes, Esteban Novembre. This Spanish mercenary lived on the street, ate on stolen money, took on any dirty work, in general, led an unrighteous life.
So, we play for Dentz. At the beginning we kill all the robbers. Then we watch the scene in which it appears Soul Reaper. He appears to both Denzu and Esteban. The heroes cannot defeat him. Then Denz decides to take refuge in the church, since Death cannot get there. To escape from the Reaper, do the following: and dem forward, and when three circles appear with a key inside, wait until the narrowing circle reaches the outer (white) and press the desired arrow. It's called QTE - Quick Time Events. When Denz gets to the church, the Reaper will fall behind him.
At the end of each chapter, your statistics will be shown. Then you can go to the upgrade menu. There are several pumping points here: weapons, abilities and Demonic power. The latter improves only as you progress storyline. Develop skills depending on your play style.

Chapter 1. Task 2 - Assault on Biron Castle


Clash of Fates

France, Biron Castle, summer 1199

Commander Baudouin and his mercenaries besiege Biron Castle. By a strange coincidence, our heroes Denz and Esteban end up in his squad. Baudouin gives them the order to blow up the main gate. This is how the guys met.
So, when you hide behind cover, move forward. When a hail of arrows will fly at you (you will be warned about this), take cover. After reaching the end, Esteban will advise you to take care of the archers. Three will be below, three - in the windows above, one on the left. After killing the archers, Denz will throw a vessel of saltpeter at the gate and blow it up.
One hurdle has been overcome, but another is on the way. Commander Baudouin will order you to use the ram. Approaching the device, climb onto it with Esteban. Next will go QTE.
When you get through the gate, kill everyone around. Three archers will appear. Finish them off and go to the place where they stood. Climb onto the burning platform and go further.
Along the way, in secluded places, look for chests. If you find all the chests in each level, you will receive an additional skill point. When you reach the commander, kill all the enemies around him. Push the ballista aside and go up the stairs. In the annex you will see one single passage. Do not rush to enter it, but first repel the enemy attack and climb the stairs to the second floor (there is a chest). Then go back down and go through the same opening.
Now you have to fight Marten himself from the opening cutscene. The fight is divided into two parts. First, de'Alge will appear before you in human form. The battle with him is difficult only because he blocks your attacks quite often. Use counterattacks. First, knock down all the armor from him, and then finish him off.
The second part of the fight: you were transported to the world of the Curse and took on the form of demons. This time, Marten will start using magic, namely creating small craters under the characters. Wait until the enemy is distracted by your partner and attack him from behind.

Chapter 1. Task 3 - Tournament in Ekri

Redemptive Crusade
Ecri Castle, July 1199

Our heroes have arrived at Ecri Castle for a jousting tournament. Dentz hopes to impress the king into allowing him to participate in a crusade against Jerusalem. The hero hopes to find his father, Jean, there.
After the video, you will be asked to complete a tutorial before the start of the tournament. Before each new round, you will hone your combat skills in the mini-arena, such as "Counterattack", "Evasion" and "Guard Break". The fights themselves are nothing special: just beat the enemies. First you will fight with a sword, then you will be given an ax, then a pike. In the end, you will fight with... what a surprise... Commander Baudouin, but only your swords will be... broken. However, it turns out that Baudouin is also cursed, and you are again transported to a dark world. Kill a couple of minions with a broken sword and pick up a weapon. Now the battle will be held on equal terms.

Chapter 1. Task 4 - Pursuit on a moonlit night

The gift of getting into trouble
Ecri Castle, the next night

Here you go. Boniface's henchmen still overtook you. Gather and repel the attack of the enemy. Then search the area for chests. Push the cart away and... repel the enemy's attack again. Next, go up to the platform. Then, using Demonic Power, inspect and then break the gate, and ... repel the enemy attack for the third time. After the cutscene... fight your opponent. Next, go to the gatehouse. What do you think is there? Of course, again opponents. Examine the gatehouse for chests and turn the brace to lower the wooden bridge. Get down.

Chapter 1. Task 5 - Forest paths

Out of the frying pan into the fire
France, a minute later

After a long chase, the heroes finally reached the royal camp. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Baudouin appears. Turns out he's one of the royal commanders. And of course, out of old friendship, the villain decides to prevent the heroes from going camping and prevents them from entering the camp. Well, it’s impossible to agree with him on good terms, we will do it on bad terms. You again have to fight with the former commander. After losing the tournament, he didn't acquire any new skills, so I think it won't be difficult for you to beat him.

Chapter 1 Task 6 - Nightmare I

in a loop
That same night

Dante has a nightmare. It seems to him that he is in the world of the Curse. He sees his mother's body and of course understands that it is all a trap. The handiwork of the Reaper.
Go ahead and kill everyone in your path. Further, when you reach the fountain, you will meet Esteban. It turns out that you are dreaming the same dream. Well, let's see what's next.
Thanks to the fountain, you will unlock a new ability - Sacred Fire. Practice using it on showers first. Then burn the talking door. There you will see a cursed crucifix. It must be "cleansed" with the help of the Holy Fire. In other words, break it into pieces. Throughout the game, similar crucifixes will appear on some levels. Clean them up to get an extra skill point. But there is one "But": the crucifixion can be found only during the transition to the world of the Curse.
After that, you will have a battle with the Reaper. The scheme is simple: when he launches a beam of fire at you (or a partner), use your new ability on the Reaper: aim and quickly press the action key. When the enemy is stunned, finish him off with your sword.

Chapter 1. Task 7 - Unfulfilled hopes

Republic of Venice, summer 1202

In this video, Jean de Bayle recounts the events that take place over the course of two years, connecting the first and second chapters. Dentz and Esteban joined the king's army and set off on their first campaign, under the command of... Baudouin.

Chapter 2. Task 1 - Tower of Zara


Debt the size of a city

Zara, Kingdom of Croatia, summer 1202

One part of Boniface's plan was to storm the city of Zara. Baudouin was appointed commander. His hatred for the main characters was so strong that he decided to go to any tricks in order to kill them. Esteban played tricks on the ship (specifically, he punched the captain in the face), and Baudouin decided to take advantage of the opportunity at all costs in order to get even with the Templar and his friend.
So, the commander sends Dentz and Esteban together to the castle so that they open the gate for his crusader army.
Go straight along the path to the very end. There you will find a chest. Go back a little and you will see a small branch from the path leading to the wall. Climb up to it and use Demon Force to find a weak spot in the wall and break through it. There is a guard waiting for you behind her. After the fight, go to the stairs. On the next floor you ... again waiting for security. After repelling the attack, use Demon Power to destroy the ballistas. Don't forget the souls that spawn when you cross over to the world of Damnation. Next - again the guards. Kill two heavily armed warriors and go to the spiral staircase. Having risen to the second floor, do not rush to deal with all opponents. See the wooden stairs leading up to the roof? A second chest is hidden behind it.
Climbing up to the roof, deal with the guards. Then go to the big iron door. It will flash yellow. Destroy it with Holy Fire. Behind it will be a room in the corner of which you can find a ladder. On it, the heroes go down to the mechanism. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, they find themselves in the world of the Curse. You need to destroy 10 souls to get back.
Turn the mechanism and go to the exit. Now your flotilla will be able to enter the city port.

Chapter 2. Task 2 - Landing at the port


Illegal intrusion

Zara, the next morning

Well, you, with your faithful companion and the commander who hates you, made your way to the territory of the fortress. However, the locals greet you not quite friendly, but more specifically - with a hail of arrows.
Go forward, hiding behind a shield so that you are not hooked. When you cross the bridge, deal with the enemies and go up the stairs. The gate would be closed, and Esteban offered to go through the market.
Move forward, destroying enemies along the way. When you reach the lattice gate, turn 180 degrees and see the chest. Destroy the gate with the Holy Fire and move on. Deal with opponents and open the next gate. Deal with the guards again and destroy the ballista with the Holy Fire. Go back and see the barricade. Destroy her. Behind her - a new portion of enemies and the second ballista. Destroy it, go past the mechanism and see the third ballista. By blowing it up, you will finally be able to turn the whirlwind and raise the huge gate. Sinister Baudouin didn't even thank you.
Next, return to the place where the third ballista used to be and apply the power of Cleansing Fire to the lattice door. Behind it you will find another similar door.

Chapter 2. Task 3 - The Old Streets of Zara


Task for one

Zara, same morning

So you entered the city. your goal is to get to the main street of the city and open the gate.
Go forward, simultaneously clearing the alleys from annoying enemies. Search every nook and cranny for chests. Next, open the heavy iron gates and continue to deal with the enemies. In total, 2-3 such gates will meet on your way. Before you go to the gate leading to the main street, check if you have found all the chests and crucifixes.

Chapter 2. Task 4 - The road to the peninsula


Defense iron and wood

Zara, a minute later

"Strange. There are no opponents at all on the main street," it seemed to Dentz. "Maybe you just looked bad" - said Esteban. And rightly noticed. Five guards attack you from behind. Kill them and destroy the gate with the Holy Fire.
Well well. The twinkle in Baudouin's eyes faded when he realized that the heroes were still alive. He brought a ballista with him, and wanted to use it to destroy the gate, deciding that the guys had been dead for a long time.
Now you have to guard the ballista. Go forward, destroying enemies along the way. Hop - ballista can not pass further, the gate is closed. No problem! Head down the alley to the right and you'll find an "openable" gate. Go through them and return to the grate, near which stands the ballista. Turn the circle and follow on. When the ballista stops again, follow the same pattern as the first time. When you reach the grating glowing yellow, destroy it with the help of the Holy Fire.

Chapter 2. Task 5 - Fortified Bridge

Water wears away the stone
Zara, later

It's done! The gameplay of the game is finally diversified. Now Baudouin will entrust you with ballista shooting. It's simple: aim at the "wooden boxes" at the top of the towers. After destroying them, run forward across the bridge and deal with the archers. Then - blow up the door with the help of Demonic power and clear the area.
And again, the restless commander sends Dentz and Esteban to certain death, forcing them to go and open the gate. Opposite these same gates on the bridge are "unfortified" stone barriers. Examine them and then destroy them. Having gone down, do not rush to blow up the wall, but turn around and go back. Under the bridge, in the water, you will find another chest. Next, blow up the aforementioned wall. Go through the catacombs until you reach a fork. To the right is a chest, to the left is the exit.
Climbing upstairs, deal with the guards. Walk forward until you reach the lifting mechanism. Kill the enemies first and then rotate it.
Go back, climb the stairs to the walls of the fortress and head towards the gate that you just opened.

Chapter 2. Task 6 - The Five Wells of Zara


Damn
which can be removed
Zara, later

Finally, there is a little respite. Examine the area for chests. Then go to the wells. And then, out of nowhere, you are attacked by the captain of Zara's guard. He says that in the wells there are skeletons of the former conquerors who encroached on his city. But we don't want to end up in a well, right? Therefore, you will have to teach him.
It turns out that the captain of the guard is also cursed, and you are transported to the world of the Curse. Remember: until you destroy 20 souls around, the Captain will remain invulnerable. In addition, he has very strong armor, so you will have to change weapons often. I think they are one of the longest bosses in the game.

Chapter 2 Task 7 - At Zara's Castle


Intention is worse than deeds

Zara, later

So you have reached the heart of the city. Zara castle. Walk forward and turn right. Damn trap! Hiding behind a column, shoot the crossbowmen. Then go up the stairs and set fire to the flickering yellow doors. Go down and deal with the enemy. Opposite the huge gate there is a wall. A crucifix hangs in the air ABOVE the gate. Go to the world of Damnation and destroy the Temten. Next - again the enemies. Kill everyone, but do not rush to push the cart. First, go further to the square. There you will find a chest.
Come back and push the cart. After a while you will meet your commander. Help him defeat the enemies and run to the main gate. Crossbowmen will attack you along the way. Shoot them, and then look at the building - a heritage of ancient architecture - in front of which stood a house with crossbowmen. There is a chest on the porch of this building. Then go to the main gate and set fire to them.
Unexpectedly, Boniface of Montferrat himself joins our company. He offers Dentz a deal: the heroes kill the owner of the castle, Vladislav, and in return he finds information about Dentz's father. The guy, of course, agrees.

Chapter 2. Task 8 - The Fall of Zara


Secrets of a divided soul

Zara, a minute later

So, you made your way to the castle. Deal with the enemies and push the ballista. Move on. Archers will attack you. Shoot them out and push the next ballista. Move forward, shooting back from crossbowmen and destroying infantry. Raising the gate, you will meet face to face with Vladislav...
A few words about him. A rather unusual uncle, due to the typical split personality (as, for example, in "The Lord of the Rings"). The real swag.
All the time he talks about some kind of treasure, the heart of the castle, which "they" supposedly should not give to anyone. But, the heroes do not pay attention to his chatter and the duel begins.
At first, the boss fight is primitive: bludgeon him until he takes you to the world of Damnation. Then interestingness follows: the essence of Vladislav in a parallel world is, as it were, divided into two parts: material and spiritual. The material part can be hit in any way, the spiritual part - only with the help of the Holy Fire. After you destroy them, you will be transferred back to the real world, and the enemy will attack you with new forces. Beat him and you will be transported back to the ACC world. Then back. And so several times.

Chapter 2. Task 9 - Nightmare II


Unworthy son, prodigal father

Zara, in the evening of the same day

Denz sends Esteban to eavesdrop on the conversation between Boniface and Baudouin. From this conversation, the hero understands that the search for sacred Christian relics has become the new goal of the campaign. Well, sir, it will be according to you.
The characters have the same dream again. The reaper is playing with them again. He tries to confuse Dentz by imitating his father's voice.
The guys climb the slope and deal with the minion. They rise one more level up and, turning to the right, pass along the wooden bridge. Behind him is a crucifix. They return to the fork and climb another level up. There is a fountain there, thanks to which they get the opportunity to learn a new new ability - Infernal Crossbow, or Roaring Flames. First, the guys hone their skills in using it, exterminating ghosts, and then they burn another talking door. Denz and Esteban cross the bridge, where the Soul Reaper and his army of darkness are waiting for them.
The scheme of the battle with the Reaper is as follows: while he is standing on a hill, the guys exterminate the souls. When the souls run out, they shoot the reaper from the Infernal crossbow. When a fire beam appears, Dentz directs it towards the Reaper. Well, when they finally set it on fire, the Reaper descends. There, the heroes are already finishing him off with their favorite melee weapons. After that, the Reaper again teleports to the hill, and the Templar boy and his faithful assistant have to die of boredom. Dying with skeletal souls that can be killed with one hit, spirit shells that can be easily burned, and rare minions. After getting rid of the cannon fodder, the guys again shoot at the Reaper from the "Crossbow". And so on until the end.

Chapter 2. Task 10 - Saving the Empire


November 1202 - July 1203

From this video, we learn that the crusaders are no longer a church enlightenment movement, that they left their former missionary goals and turned into ordinary mercenaries. Boniface makes a deal with the son of the emperor of Byzantium, Alexius Angel, so that the crusaders besiege Constantinople and kill the emperor, and in return receive money for a campaign in Jerusalem.

Chapter 3. Task 1 - Walls of Constantinople


Knighted and False Templar
Constantinople, Byzantium, July 1203

Dentz's army is heading towards the walls of Constantinople. He is wearing new armor, which Esteban also liked. After a fiery speech by a Templar boy, a small detachment of crusaders with furious cries goes on the offensive.
Move along the wall, clearing the area of ​​enemies. When you reach the first siege tower, Esteban will climb it. Move on to the next siege tower. On it you can get to the wall. But keep in mind: you must have at least one soldier with you, otherwise Denz will get stuck against the wall.
So you made your way to the territory of the fortress. The goal is to destroy the trebuchets. If you go back a little along the wall, you will find a chest. Now go to the first trebuchet and destroy it with the Holy Fire. Go further and find the second trebuchet. Having dealt with him, inspect, and then destroy the wall standing behind. Do you see a small passage that ends with a door? There is a crucifix there.
Opposite the wall that was just destroyed, there is another wall that also needs to be destroyed.

Chapter 3. Task 2 - Golden Gate


Union of the Damned

Constantinople, later

You have arrived at the main entrance to the city, where Boniface and Baudouin are already waiting for you. The path inside is blocked by the majestic Golden Gate. Were they built for the giants?
Denz offers to join forces and burn the gates with the four of them. Boniface approves this proposal. After the burning procedure, it becomes clear that the Marquis of Montferrat needs sacred relics for a reason...
Now you must destroy the smoldering gate with a battering ram. You have already met with this procedure during the passage of the first chapter. Habitual QTE.
Further, as in the first chapter, you need to overcome the path to the iron grate, hiding under the mantles from the hail of arrows. When Denz picks up a crossbow, destroy the crossbowmen that have appeared. Walk forward a little more. Sword soldiers will appear. Deal with them, and then destroy the wooden fortifications with the Infernal Crossbow.
Failure. The gates are locked. Run straight in the opposite direction, to another grate. Along the way, near the tower in the center, you can find a crucifix.
Having reached the second mantle, repeat the procedure: pass - take cover - pass - shoot the crossbowmen - pass - kill the warriors - destroy the wooden fortifications. Again failure.

Chapter 3. Task 3 - Trapped


Angel protecting demons

"Allow me to introduce myself, Tatikiy Lente, the guard of Constantinople, the athlete of the Byzantine Empire!" - greeted our heroes another madman who dared to challenge them. Well, fight is fight. There seems to be a greater power than the curse, Dentz thought. "Chur his golden armor - mine!" thought Esteban.
So, a long and stubborn battle begins, requiring cunning and ingenuity, a kind of fight with the boss. There is no trick here: hit the athlete until he falls at your feet. And no holy defense will help him. However, it seems that the great Tatikiy has no concept of honor, and therefore cowardly runs away, leaving behind him to fight the newly arrived Vikings. In fact, they themselves offered it to him. By the way, near the arena, to the right of the destroyed column, a crucifix hangs in the air.
We exterminate our Norman guests and collect their thieves' weapons. After that, we move through the aforementioned column. Another trap. The boys are again being showered with arrows. Denz and Esteban decide to split up: one goes to the left, the other to the right.
We are going to the left. We go to the next "wall". It seems that the builders did not particularly comply with technical standards, since there are so many fragile places in the walls. So, we destroy the wall behind which the Vikings are already setting fire to us. We kill everyone and climb the stairs to the wall. If you go to the right, you will find a chest. But you need to go left. Enemies on the wall seem to never end, so try not to stay here for a long time.

Chapter 3. Task 4 - The Emperor is killed, the promise is forgotten


Byzantium, July 1203 - April 1204

So, the crusaders fulfilled their part of the contract. The title of Emperor of Constantinople now belongs to Alexy IV. However, he was in no particular hurry to fulfill the promise given to Boniface. After some time, the emperor was overthrown, and Boniface decided that he had every right to take the city by storm and appropriate its wealth.

Chapter 3. Task 5 - Blachernae Walls


In the belly of the beast

Constantinople, Byzantium, April 1204

The assault on Constantinople began. Dentz and Esteban, at the head of two siege towers, approach the walls of the city. Out of nowhere, archers appear, shooting at you fire arrows. Grab your crossbow and start shooting them methodically, otherwise your turret will burst into flames like a match. Finally, having reached the wall, go to the neighboring building and take out the door. Run to the end of the next wall.
Damn it. Looks like the idiot soldiers have destroyed the stone stairs and you can't get down to the ground now. No problem. Run back to the wall on which you landed from the siege tower, and along it to the ruined building. There will be another door that needs to be broken. But don't rush to do it. First, turn left and go to the end of the adjacent wall behind the chest.
After going through the door, run along the wall. Crossbowmen again! Shoot them and take out the next door. Behind her... another door. Walk to the end of the wall and go down the stairs. "Finally, solid ground" - Esteban thought at that moment.
Here you are attacked by the Vikings. Kill them and pick up their cool two-handed axes; D. See the gate with the double-headed eagle? (For those who are not in the know: the Russian coat of arms with a double-headed eagle came to us just the same from Byzantium). Near this gate hangs a crucifix. And you can naz the last chest near the cart. The last thing left to do is turn the mechanism near the wall to open the gate.

Chapter 3. Task 6 - Blachernae Gardens


The emperor is a killer

Constantinople, later

Hm. It seems that our heroes have discovered Murzufla - the very villain who overthrew Emperor Alexius, and because of whom they did not receive the promised money. Well, killing a scoundrel will bring fame to the guys, and fame will bring something more ...
To your left is what looks like a wooden scaffolding. They can be set on fire with sacred fire. Next, the Varangians are waiting for you. Deal with them and climb higher, to the wall. Suddenly you are attacked by crossbowmen. You can shoot them, or you can stab them - the choice is yours. So, after climbing the stairs, open the door and go further. A cutscene will follow, in which Denz learns about the location of Murzufla. And Esteban finds out that Denz is capable of sooo much.
Now you have reached the garden. Fight off enemies. Near one of the statues you will find a crucifix, and in the opposite corner - a chest. Now head to the gate, where Murzulf, the self-appointed emperor of Constantinople, will welcome you.
Like many rulers, Murzulf was accustomed to hiding behind guards. So he unleashes a horde of ghosts on you. They will appear and appear until you seal the stone wells. It's simple: explore them, and then destroy the columns one by one. When the wells collapse, you will return to reality. And you will be attacked by the same real enemies. Deal with them, and then open the grate and pursue Murzulf.

Chapter 3 Task 7 - At the Imperial Palace


Echoes of past battles

Constantinople, a minute later

The heroes continue to chase the pseudo-emperor. At the very beginning of the level, behind you, you can find a chest.
To be honest, this task reminded me of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and a few other old console games. It's simple - you only move forward, from time to time stopping at mini-arenas, without the possibility of advancement. In these arenas, you need to fight off a cloud of opponents. Kill everyone and move on. On the way you will see a huge gate. To the left of them is a crucifix.
So you got to Murzulf. This is one of the easiest bosses. All you have to do is slash him with swords (or whatever you have), and occasionally dodge fire attacks with QTW.

Chapter 3. Task 8 - Blachernae Baths


fire bath

Constantinople, a minute later

Well, our heroes ended up in ... a bathhouse. However, now, thanks to Murzuflu, you can mate in it in a split second. And in order not to turn into a couple of well-done steaks, Denz and Esteban must stop the emperor.
Shoot the villain with the Infernal Crossbow, and then burn it with a fire beam. After a couple of such manipulations, Murzulf will again run away from you, fearfully admitting that he has a worthy opponent in front of him.
Turn right and take out the door. If you go straight, you can find the curse. But in order to catch up with the emperor, you need to turn left, where another door is waiting for you. Destroy it and face Murzulf again. The scheme of the second battle with him is identical to the first. Burn the usurper with a fire beam, and he will retreat. Also in this episode, another curtain is lifted, hiding the true nature of the Curse.
Turn left and destroy another door. Now turn right and destroy the door again. Go to the room where Murzufl hid. Here you will be attacked by soldiers. Deal with them and destroy the next door.
Looks like one of the Varangians decided to take a piss. Very interesting scene =) Let's deal with the Vikings and go up the stairs, where the great emperor of Byzantium ran away from you. All you have to do is beat him until he falls. And then he will tell you everything he knows about the shrines...

Chapter 3. Task 9 - Capitol


All the secret becomes clear

Before you is the majestic Capitol, the central building of Constantinople. Boniface orders you to retrieve the relic from there. According to Murzulf, this relic is the Spear of Destiny. The one that pierced Jesus Christ.
Go around the building on the left. Defeat the crossbowmen and push the cart. Go right. See the statue with the spear in hand? Opposite her is a crucifix. But for now, you can't get it.
Go further and go down into the sewers. Everything around will burst into flames. Look to the left - there is a small porch that leads to a wooden staircase. Climb up it and you will find yourself just near the statue and the crucifix.
Examine the sewers and find another porch that also leads to a wooden staircase. It will take you to the Capitol.
Deal with the guards. See the stone coffin? Use Demonic Vision to inspect and then destroy the wall near him. By the way, there is a chest hidden behind the wall opposite.
So you have discovered a piece of the great Spear of Destiny. And Denz understands that with the help of this sacred relic, you can get rid of the curse.
Suddenly, the giant door shatters into pieces. The Marquis of Montferrat demands a relic for himself. However, Denz is not going to give it away. Boniface taunts them, says they have no idea what to do with the shrines, and gives them one last chance to submit to his will. In an unsuccessful attempt to kill the villain, Esteban gives him a clear answer. Apparently, the marquis was used to always getting what he wanted, so he decided to take the spear away by force.
Defeating Boniface is easy: hit him with sacred fire and burn him with a fire beam. However, the Duke of Montferrat is stronger than it was at first glance. He swings his sword over the head of the young de "Bayle and ...

Chapter 3. Task 10 - Nightmare III


Until the death separates us
Stopped moment

Dentz and Esteban find themselves trapped in the Soul Reaper again. This time it's much more dangerous. If you get close, you will die. Therefore, run away in the opposite direction with all legs. Beware of fire - it can burn you alive. When you get to the end of the bridge, destroy the nearby crucifix. Now go to the fountain. Here the heroes will learn a new ability - Fire Whirlwind. It's like a mass attack. Thanks to him, you can hit all nearby enemies. Practice on the ghosts and then burn the talking door. Cross the bridge. Hmm... Death really is everywhere...
Enter the fight with the Reaper. Burn it with fire and dodge attacks with QTE from time to time. Soon the enemy will fall under your onslaught.
Boniface will fall the same way. Before the cold edge of the blade could pierce Dentz's neck, he managed to throw the Marquis back, and Boniface lost consciousness. "There's nothing here, just some pathetic piece of wood," Esteban said disappointedly, taking a piece of the sacred crucifix from the duke's pocket.

Chapter 4. Task 1 - Theodosius Forum


Between the hammer and the anvil

Constantinople, a few minutes later

Your goal is to find the princess who keeps the third relic - the Crown of Thorns. It seems that JuBoniface was not stingy with setting a reward for the heads of our heroes. As soon as you find yourself in the square, you will be attacked by your former allies. Run straight to the other gate, fighting off the enemy along the way. Denz and Esteban slam the giant doors in front of the duke.
Run to the left, destroying opponents along the way. When you get to the next gate, the heroes will slam it shut and find themselves in... a dead end. Well then. If we cannot run away from someone, we must try to delay him. And for that, we need... a pretty strong argument. Weighing several hundred pounds.
Destroy the wooden supports that hold the column. A huge marble block, like a match, will break in half and fall right on Boniface, without raising a single speck of dust into the air. Unfortunately, the marquis is not so easy to kill...
Run straight, turn left. You are attacked by a new batch of enemies. Get even with them, but do not rush to go to the wall. First, turn right and find a crucifix near the cart.
Now go to the wall, and also turn right. Who is it there? It looks like our old friend, the guard of Constantinople, Tatikiy Lente.

Chapter 4. Task 2 - Constantine's Forum


Saving the enemy

Constantinople, a few minutes later

A grandiose square opens up to your gaze, with a giant column in the center. You need to get to Tactia.
Walk forward a little, then right, then right again. Push the cart and fight the knights. See the chest behind the wooden bars? You can inspect it and then destroy it.
Walk left, then left again. Move to the column. Near it a lot of enemies. Deal with them and destroy the grate behind the column. Behind it is a square. To the left of the main gate you can find a chest.
Move to the right. There you will find a cart. Push her away. A crucifix is ​​hidden behind one of the wooden bars on the left.
Go forward, destroy enemies, look for chests, push carts. When you destroy the last grating, you will see an athlete fighting furiously with countless enemies. You need to... help the guard deal with the knights. He, of course, will not ally with you, but nevertheless, he will not attack you.

Chapter 4. Task 3 - The road to the palace


Tracking down an angel

Constantinople, a minute later

As soon as the task begins, the Vikings will immediately attack you. Deal with them and go to the square, where you will be attacked by an infinite number of enemies. See the iron lattice gates? Opposite them, against the wall, is a crucifix.
Go through the gate. Crossbowmen. Shoot everyone and raise the next gate.
Wow, what people! Baudouin himself! We haven't seen him for a long time... And Tatikiy Lente is stretched out at his feet. Well, let's help out the negligent "hero" ...
The only difficulty in the battle with the former commander is that minions with shields are dancing around you, so they are hard to kill. And so, real busty - beat up Baudouin in real world, then - in the world of Damnation...

Chapter 4. Task 4 - Temple Gallery


Strong Alliance

Constantinople, a minute later

Wow. You have an ally in the person of Tatikiy Lente. Although he does not fully trust you, but for the safety of Princess Theodora, he still decides to take you to her.
Kill all opponents in the yard. Then go to the metal gate and lift it up. A new batch of knights awaits you outside the gates. O_o How did the athlete of Byzantium turn out to be great, if we just left him outside the gate ???
From the dying Viking, we learn the location of the princess. And we also learn that a very strong enemy awaits us ... Who is he?
Move on and climb up the wall. We are witnessing a scene of cruel massacre of the crusaders over the knights. O_o Tatikiy again somehow mysteriously manages to join you...
Continue to methodically destroy enemies. Next, another gate awaits you. It looks like our newfound comrade-in-arms has learned to pass through walls... if only we could do this...
Anyway. Clear the courtyard of all the incoming crusader hordes and head to the wooden gate leading to the building, in the tower of which, apparently, the princess is hiding.

Chapter 4. Task 5 - Augusteion


great price

Constantinople, a minute later

You have infiltrated the territory of the Augustaion. Suddenly, as if from under the ground, a horde of ghosts grows around you. Kill them all to return to reality and fight against more dangerous enemies - knights. Then push the cart aside and... again fall into the trap of ghosts. And kill them all again, since it is not difficult when you have the ACCAA ax in your hands;)
Raise the gate and you will enter a beautiful courtyard with majestic statues. To your right, on the porch, Tatikiy is brandishing axes. Run to him.
Meet. The first and only woman you meet in the game is Princess Theodora. Yes, and that one is dumb. When Dentz tried to question her about the relic, he was interrupted by a voice from outside. The voice of an old friend...
It turns out that Boniface did not waste time, and managed to find the last relic. The crown of thorns had decayed long ago, but its petrified thorns were inlaid in wooden cross. And with the help of this cross, the marquis kills poor Tactias in order to summon his new friend. Uh ... Well, my friend. 4 times higher than Boniface himself. The demon kills the unfortunate princess and tries to crush Esteban. Enraged, Denz begs the Marquis of Montferrat to spare the Spaniard in exchange for the return of the relics. Well, a deal is a deal. However, the demon does not disappear anywhere, and we will have to make a lot of efforts to defeat him...
So, the scheme of the battle with the boss is as follows: follow the advice of Esteban, hit him in the legs. When the monster bows its head in front of you, "purify" it with the help of the Holy Fire. Soon the demon will fall, and friends will go to pursue Boniface. After all, if they were able to destroy such a colossus, then they will cope with the Marquis even more so.

Chapter 4. Task 6 - Courtyard of Hagia Sophia


The traitor must die

Constantinople, a minute later

Rejoice! You are near one of the most beautiful places in the world... well, the world of those times. In fact, you have reached the Hagia Sophia under construction.
Boniface's wars will immediately attack you. Kill them and go forward. Turn right and climb up the stone embankment. Here you need to push the cart. Turn right. Ahead of you are waiting for the Marquis knights. Kill them, and then turn around and bring down the flashing yellow wooden structures. Follow them to the other side of the wall.
You have reached a small courtyard. Above the fountain in the center, you can find a cursed crucifix. Deal with the enemies and head into the open passage leading to a room with a mechanism that needs to be turned. The gates to the cathedral will open. That's where you need to be.

Chapter 4 Task 7 - Hagia Sophia


Those who fought the infernal hordes

Constantinople, a minute later

What the hell is this?! Do you have triplets in your eyes? The screen is divided into 3 parts? Game glitched?
Looks like no. Probably, one gigantic demon was not enough, and the developers decided to add another three. Although, on the other hand, everything is logical: three relics - three demons.
Well, we defeated one demon, we will defeat the rest.
Firstly, the demons will attack you one by one, which makes the task much easier. When the first demon attacks you, pay attention to the fiery circles in which two other monsters are enclosed. Next to them, to the left and to the right, are other circles made of stone tiles, above which hangs a picadilio (something like a huge lamp). The scheme is simple: when you lure the demon into the stone circle, beat him in the legs until the giant falls to his knees. Then pull the lever and the picadilio will slam its weight onto the monster's back with a roar. The same must be done with other demons. When the last monster is defeated, the gate will open. Run towards them and pursue Boniface.

Chapter 4. Task 8 - To the Bosphorus


From the flames of hell

Constantinople, a minute later

A gigantic monster is chasing our friends. Denz and Esteban rush with all their might... that is, with all their horses' hooves, they rush towards the Bosporus Strait, on the banks of which the ballistas stand. The heroes dismount and jump on them. Shot, another shot - and lo and behold, the monstrous demon fell to the ground, hit by huge arrows right in the head. Ehhh, it’s a pity that they didn’t let us do it ourselves, but just showed a video!
Well, our business in Constantinople is over, and the guys decide to go to Syria in order to find Jean de Beyle, Denz's father. After all, it is he who knows the location of the fourth relic.

Chapter 4. Task 9 - Leaving the Ruined Empire


April - May 1204

Murzufl escaped. Tactius Lente is dead. Constantinople was left without defenders. Greed took possession of the hearts of the crusaders. They robbed, killed, desecrated sacred relics. They swore to lift the sword only against the infidels. Now their blades were stained with the blood of innocent people.
Byzantium was left without an emperor. Boniface disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Therefore, the imperial throne was occupied by his closest associate ... Who would you think? Baudouin himself...

In the meantime, our heroes crossed the Bosporus and set off for Krak des Chevaliers - a fortress in which, according to Dentz, his father is located.

Chapter 5. Task 1 - In the fortress


At the edge of the worlds

Syria, May 1204

Welcome to Krak des Chevaliers. A fortress built by the ancient Templars. A fortress that no one has yet managed to conquer. The fortress where Jean de Bayle, the keeper of the last relic of the Lord, is located.
But what is it? It seems that Boniface has already managed to get here - zombie-like wars are coming out to meet you. It seems the marquis has learned to use the power of the relics to raise the dead from the earth.
...Kill the dead. Go forward. Promotion will not be difficult for you, as the corridors do not branch out. Along the way, you will be transported to the world of damnation and will not be able to return back until you kill all the ghosts. When you reach the stairs leading to the wall, climb it - there is a chest waiting for you.
Go forward all the time. You will reach a kind of balcony, in one of the openings you can find a crucifix.
After that, you will have a fork in front of you: a room with a wooden floor. Stairs up or stairs down? You need a ladder down. Going down it, the heroes will fall into the Templar wine cellars. Yeah, there's enough alcohol here until World War II...
At the exit from the cellar, a new horde of undead will be waiting for you. Nothing, we are no longer used to joyful meetings ... After the battle, turn left and go straight to the chapel.
Here they are, the gates of Hell. Living, warm blood nourishes them, does not allow them to close. But nothing, now we will contribute to this.
The scheme is simple: Esteban distracts the enemy, you "clear" the Gate. The best way here is to use "Fire Whirlwind". Thus, you will not only deal damage to the gates, but also be able to drive away the annoying undead from you.
The gates of hell are closed. However, the Templar still has a premonition that something is wrong here. Look around the room. On the far left side of the cathedral, you will find a wall that can be broken. And behind her...

Chapter 5. Epilogue


Meeting old friends

Cairo, Egypt, a few weeks later

Congratulations, your crusade is over.
Although...
Judging by the final video, we have yet to meet the young Templar and his faithful friend again.
The villains are still alive, but the heroes aren't dead either. Therefore, we can only hope for the best and wait for the continuation of this wonderful game.

Prologue. My name is Jean de Bail. I am a knight of the Knights Templar. Now, in the harsh winter of 1198, eight years have passed since I left France, leaving my lands, my castle, and my family. I often wonder what made me follow Richard the Lionheart here. In those days, the king was enthusiastic and charismatic... I guess I, like others, was captivated by thoughts of the Holy Land and total absolution. But the Holy Land was not at all what we imagined it to be. And the promised atonement for sins always loomed somewhere in the distance. But even if I was deceived in my expectations, I managed to find what I had been looking for for a long time... Freedom. Freedom for me and for my entire family.

Jean! A little more and we will be surrounded! There are too many of them and they broke into the fortress!
- Marten, I warned that the fortress would fall under the onslaught! The day has come when the sons of Saladin will do what their ancestors failed for so many years. So be it... This fortress doesn't matter. Have you brought it yet?
- Yes. Why else would I be looking for you in this chaos? Here, take it. I know that in your hands it will serve a great purpose. I will command the remaining warriors to the end. And you must move on. Leave.
- Martin! I will not leave you! This is against the rules of our order. You must survive my friend... just like me. Together we will win!
- Jean, come to your senses. Commanding these people is my duty, and mine alone. And you... I know you will complete our task. Because you are a true Templar. Go southeast through underground passage. Saladin's men are not there yet. One person can easily slip away.
Thanks, Martin. I will obtain absolution for both of us... and for my son.
- If your son inherited at least half of your virtues, he deserved the right to salvation. Go with God, my friend. Goodbye.
- No, Martin... We'll meet again, in France!

Syrian desert. Winter 1198


1198 The era of the Crusades. Jean de Bayle, a knight of the Knights Templar, in all his glory describes his feelings about his participation in the Third Campaign. He regrets leaving his family and his hometown behind. However, he believes that he has acquired something more - freedom.
After a fight with enemy soldiers, his friend, Marten, gives Jean a mysterious box, which obviously contains something valuable. Martin believes that in the hands of Jean "It" will do more good. Jean leaves.

Chapter 1. Task 1 - Winter Evening


Lost Souls

France at the same time

Jean de Bayle, the hero of the prologue, talks about his son, Denze, who decided to follow the example of his father and become a Templar. Jean's brother betrayed their family and appropriated all the wealth for himself. Another hero is also presented to our eyes, Esteban Novembre. This Spanish mercenary lived on the street, ate on stolen money, took on any dirty work, in general, led an unrighteous life.
So, we play for Dentz. At the beginning we kill all the robbers. Then we watch the scene in which it appears Soul Reaper. He appears to both Denzu and Esteban. The heroes cannot defeat him. Then Denz decides to take refuge in the church, since Death cannot get there. To escape from the Reaper, do the following: and dem forward, and when three circles appear with a key inside, wait until the narrowing circle reaches the outer (white) and press the desired arrow. It's called QTE - Quick Time Events. When Denz gets to the church, the Reaper will fall behind him.
At the end of each chapter, your statistics will be shown. Then you can go to the upgrade menu. There are several pumping points here: weapons, abilities and Demonic power. The latter improves only as the storyline progresses. Develop skills depending on your play style.

Chapter 1. Task 2 - Assault on Biron Castle


Clash of Fates

France, Biron Castle, summer 1199

Commander Baudouin and his mercenaries besiege Biron Castle. By a strange coincidence, our heroes Denz and Esteban end up in his squad. Baudouin gives them the order to blow up the main gate. This is how the guys met.
So, when you hide behind cover, move forward. When a hail of arrows will fly at you (you will be warned about this), take cover. After reaching the end, Esteban will advise you to take care of the archers. Three will be below, three - in the windows above, one on the left. After killing the archers, Denz will throw a vessel of saltpeter at the gate and blow it up.
One hurdle has been overcome, but another is on the way. Commander Baudouin will order you to use the ram. Approaching the device, climb onto it with Esteban. Next will go QTE.
When you get through the gate, kill everyone around. Three archers will appear. Finish them off and go to the place where they stood. Climb onto the burning platform and go further.
Along the way, in secluded places, look for chests. If you find all the chests in each level, you will receive an additional skill point. When you reach the commander, kill all the enemies around him. Push the ballista aside and go up the stairs. In the annex you will see one single passage. Do not rush to enter it, but first repel the enemy attack and climb the stairs to the second floor (there is a chest). Then go back down and go through the same opening.
Now you have to fight Marten himself from the opening cutscene. The fight is divided into two parts. First, de'Alge will appear before you in human form. The battle with him is difficult only because he blocks your attacks quite often. Use counterattacks. First, knock down all the armor from him, and then finish him off.
The second part of the fight: you were transported to the world of the Curse and took on the form of demons. This time, Marten will start using magic, namely creating small craters under the characters. Wait until the enemy is distracted by your partner and attack him from behind.

Chapter 1. Task 3 - Tournament in Ekri

Redemptive Crusade
Ecri Castle, July 1199

Our heroes have arrived at Ecri Castle for a jousting tournament. Dentz hopes to impress the king into allowing him to participate in a crusade against Jerusalem. The hero hopes to find his father, Jean, there.
After the video, you will be asked to complete a tutorial before the start of the tournament. Before each new round, you will hone your combat skills in the mini-arena, such as "Counterattack", "Evasion" and "Guard Break". The fights themselves are nothing special: just beat the enemies. First you will fight with a sword, then you will be given an ax, then a pike. In the end, you will fight with... what a surprise... Commander Baudouin, but only your swords will be... broken. However, it turns out that Baudouin is also cursed, and you are again transported to a dark world. Kill a couple of minions with a broken sword and pick up a weapon. Now the battle will be held on equal terms.

Chapter 1. Task 4 - Pursuit on a moonlit night

The gift of getting into trouble
Ecri Castle, the next night

Here you go. Boniface's henchmen still overtook you. Gather and repel the attack of the enemy. Then search the area for chests. Push the cart away and... repel the enemy's attack again. Next, go up to the platform. Then, using Demonic Power, inspect and then break the gate, and ... repel the enemy attack for the third time. After the cutscene... fight your opponent. Next, go to the gatehouse. What do you think is there? Of course, again opponents. Examine the gatehouse for chests and turn the brace to lower the wooden bridge. Get down.

Chapter 1. Task 5 - Forest paths

Out of the frying pan into the fire
France, a minute later

After a long chase, the heroes finally reached the royal camp. Suddenly, out of nowhere, Baudouin appears. Turns out he's one of the royal commanders. And of course, out of old friendship, the villain decides to prevent the heroes from going camping and prevents them from entering the camp. Well, it’s impossible to agree with him on good terms, we will do it on bad terms. You again have to fight with the former commander. After losing the tournament, he didn't acquire any new skills, so I think it won't be difficult for you to beat him.

Chapter 1 Task 6 - Nightmare I

in a loop
That same night

Dante has a nightmare. It seems to him that he is in the world of the Curse. He sees his mother's body and of course understands that it is all a trap. The handiwork of the Reaper.
Go ahead and kill everyone in your path. Further, when you reach the fountain, you will meet Esteban. It turns out that you are dreaming the same dream. Well, let's see what's next.
Thanks to the fountain, you will unlock a new ability - Sacred Fire. Practice using it on showers first. Then burn the talking door. There you will see a cursed crucifix. It must be "cleansed" with the help of the Holy Fire. In other words, break it into pieces. Throughout the game, similar crucifixes will appear on some levels. Clean them up to get an extra skill point. But there is one "But": the crucifixion can be found only during the transition to the world of the Curse.
After that, you will have a battle with the Reaper. The scheme is simple: when he launches a beam of fire at you (or a partner), use your new ability on the Reaper: aim and quickly press the action key. When the enemy is stunned, finish him off with your sword.

Chapter 1. Task 7 - Unfulfilled hopes

Republic of Venice, summer 1202

In this video, Jean de Bayle recounts the events that take place over the course of two years, connecting the first and second chapters. Dentz and Esteban joined the king's army and set off on their first campaign, under the command of... Baudouin.

Chapter 2. Task 1 - Tower of Zara


Debt the size of a city

Zara, Kingdom of Croatia, summer 1202

One part of Boniface's plan was to storm the city of Zara. Baudouin was appointed commander. His hatred for the main characters was so strong that he decided to go to any tricks in order to kill them. Esteban played tricks on the ship (specifically, he punched the captain in the face), and Baudouin decided to take advantage of the opportunity at all costs in order to get even with the Templar and his friend.
So, the commander sends Dentz and Esteban together to the castle so that they open the gate for his crusader army.
Go straight along the path to the very end. There you will find a chest. Go back a little and you will see a small branch from the path leading to the wall. Climb up to it and use Demon Force to find a weak spot in the wall and break through it. There is a guard waiting for you behind her. After the fight, go to the stairs. On the next floor you ... again waiting for security. After repelling the attack, use Demon Power to destroy the ballistas. Don't forget the souls that spawn when you cross over to the world of Damnation. Next - again the guards. Kill two heavily armed warriors and go to the spiral staircase. Having risen to the second floor, do not rush to deal with all opponents. See the wooden stairs leading up to the roof? A second chest is hidden behind it.
Climbing up to the roof, deal with the guards. Then go to the big iron door. It will flash yellow. Destroy it with Holy Fire. Behind it will be a room in the corner of which you can find a ladder. On it, the heroes go down to the mechanism. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, they find themselves in the world of the Curse. You need to destroy 10 souls to get back.
Turn the mechanism and go to the exit. Now your flotilla will be able to enter the city port.

Chapter 2. Task 2 - Landing at the port


Illegal intrusion

Zara, the next morning

Well, you, with your faithful companion and the commander who hates you, made your way to the territory of the fortress. However, the locals greet you not quite friendly, but more specifically - with a hail of arrows.
Go forward, hiding behind a shield so that you are not hooked. When you cross the bridge, deal with the enemies and go up the stairs. The gate would be closed, and Esteban offered to go through the market.
Move forward, destroying enemies along the way. When you reach the lattice gate, turn 180 degrees and see the chest. Destroy the gate with the Holy Fire and move on. Deal with opponents and open the next gate. Deal with the guards again and destroy the ballista with the Holy Fire. Go back and see the barricade. Destroy her. Behind her - a new portion of enemies and the second ballista. Destroy it, go past the mechanism and see the third ballista. By blowing it up, you will finally be able to turn the whirlwind and raise the huge gate. Sinister Baudouin didn't even thank you.
Next, return to the place where the third ballista used to be and apply the power of Cleansing Fire to the lattice door. Behind it you will find another similar door.

Chapter 2. Task 3 - The Old Streets of Zara


Task for one

Zara, same morning

So you entered the city. your goal is to get to the main street of the city and open the gate.
Go forward, simultaneously clearing the alleys from annoying enemies. Search every nook and cranny for chests. Next, open the heavy iron gates and continue to deal with the enemies. In total, 2-3 such gates will meet on your way. Before you go to the gate leading to the main street, check if you have found all the chests and crucifixes.

Chapter 2. Task 4 - The road to the peninsula


Defense iron and wood

Zara, a minute later

"Strange. There are no opponents at all on the main street," it seemed to Dentz. "Maybe you just looked bad" - said Esteban. And rightly noticed. Five guards attack you from behind. Kill them and destroy the gate with the Holy Fire.
Well well. The twinkle in Baudouin's eyes faded when he realized that the heroes were still alive. He brought a ballista with him, and wanted to use it to destroy the gate, deciding that the guys had been dead for a long time.
Now you have to guard the ballista. Go forward, destroying enemies along the way. Hop - ballista can not pass further, the gate is closed. No problem! Head down the alley to the right and you'll find an "openable" gate. Go through them and return to the grate, near which stands the ballista. Turn the circle and follow on. When the ballista stops again, follow the same pattern as the first time. When you reach the grating glowing yellow, destroy it with the help of the Holy Fire.

Chapter 2. Task 5 - Fortified Bridge

Water wears away the stone
Zara, later

It's done! The gameplay of the game is finally diversified. Now Baudouin will entrust you with ballista shooting. It's simple: aim at the "wooden boxes" at the top of the towers. After destroying them, run forward across the bridge and deal with the archers. Then - blow up the door with the help of Demonic power and clear the area.
And again, the restless commander sends Dentz and Esteban to certain death, forcing them to go and open the gate. Opposite these same gates on the bridge are "unfortified" stone barriers. Examine them and then destroy them. Having gone down, do not rush to blow up the wall, but turn around and go back. Under the bridge, in the water, you will find another chest. Next, blow up the aforementioned wall. Go through the catacombs until you reach a fork. To the right is a chest, to the left is the exit.
Climbing upstairs, deal with the guards. Walk forward until you reach the lifting mechanism. Kill the enemies first and then rotate it.
Go back, climb the stairs to the walls of the fortress and head towards the gate that you just opened.

Chapter 2. Task 6 - The Five Wells of Zara


Damn
which can be removed
Zara, later

Finally, there is a little respite. Examine the area for chests. Then go to the wells. And then, out of nowhere, you are attacked by the captain of Zara's guard. He says that in the wells there are skeletons of the former conquerors who encroached on his city. But we don't want to end up in a well, right? Therefore, you will have to teach him.
It turns out that the captain of the guard is also cursed, and you are transported to the world of the Curse. Remember: until you destroy 20 souls around, the Captain will remain invulnerable. In addition, he has very strong armor, so you will have to change weapons often. I think they are one of the longest bosses in the game.

Chapter 2 Task 7 - At Zara's Castle


Intention is worse than deeds

Zara, later

So you have reached the heart of the city. Zara castle. Walk forward and turn right. Damn trap! Hiding behind a column, shoot the crossbowmen. Then go up the stairs and set fire to the flickering yellow doors. Go down and deal with the enemy. Opposite the huge gate there is a wall. A crucifix hangs in the air ABOVE the gate. Go to the world of Damnation and destroy the Temten. Next - again the enemies. Kill everyone, but do not rush to push the cart. First, go further to the square. There you will find a chest.
Come back and push the cart. After a while you will meet your commander. Help him defeat the enemies and run to the main gate. Crossbowmen will attack you along the way. Shoot them, and then look at the building - a heritage of ancient architecture - in front of which stood a house with crossbowmen. There is a chest on the porch of this building. Then go to the main gate and set fire to them.
Unexpectedly, Boniface of Montferrat himself joins our company. He offers Dentz a deal: the heroes kill the owner of the castle, Vladislav, and in return he finds information about Dentz's father. The guy, of course, agrees.

Chapter 2. Task 8 - The Fall of Zara


Secrets of a divided soul

Zara, a minute later

So, you made your way to the castle. Deal with the enemies and push the ballista. Move on. Archers will attack you. Shoot them out and push the next ballista. Move forward, shooting back from crossbowmen and destroying infantry. Raising the gate, you will meet face to face with Vladislav...
A few words about him. A rather unusual uncle, due to the typical split personality (as, for example, in "The Lord of the Rings"). The real swag.
All the time he talks about some kind of treasure, the heart of the castle, which "they" supposedly should not give to anyone. But, the heroes do not pay attention to his chatter and the duel begins.
At first, the boss fight is primitive: bludgeon him until he takes you to the world of Damnation. Then interestingness follows: the essence of Vladislav in a parallel world is, as it were, divided into two parts: material and spiritual. The material part can be hit in any way, the spiritual part - only with the help of the Holy Fire. After you destroy them, you will be transferred back to the real world, and the enemy will attack you with new forces. Beat him and you will be transported back to the ACC world. Then back. And so several times.

Chapter 2. Task 9 - Nightmare II


Unworthy son, prodigal father

Zara, in the evening of the same day

Denz sends Esteban to eavesdrop on the conversation between Boniface and Baudouin. From this conversation, the hero understands that the search for sacred Christian relics has become the new goal of the campaign. Well, sir, it will be according to you.
The characters have the same dream again. The reaper is playing with them again. He tries to confuse Dentz by imitating his father's voice.
The guys climb the slope and deal with the minion. They rise one more level up and, turning to the right, pass along the wooden bridge. Behind him is a crucifix. They return to the fork and climb another level up. There is a fountain there, thanks to which they get the opportunity to learn a new new ability - Infernal Crossbow, or Roaring Flames. First, the guys hone their skills in using it, exterminating ghosts, and then they burn another talking door. Denz and Esteban cross the bridge, where the Soul Reaper and his army of darkness are waiting for them.
The scheme of the battle with the Reaper is as follows: while he is standing on a hill, the guys exterminate the souls. When the souls run out, they shoot the reaper from the Infernal crossbow. When a fire beam appears, Dentz directs it towards the Reaper. Well, when they finally set it on fire, the Reaper descends. There, the heroes are already finishing him off with their favorite melee weapons. After that, the Reaper again teleports to the hill, and the Templar boy and his faithful assistant have to die of boredom. Dying with skeletal souls that can be killed with one hit, spirit shells that can be easily burned, and rare minions. After getting rid of the cannon fodder, the guys again shoot at the Reaper from the "Crossbow". And so on until the end.

Chapter 2. Task 10 - Saving the Empire


November 1202 - July 1203

From this video, we learn that the crusaders are no longer a church enlightenment movement, that they left their former missionary goals and turned into ordinary mercenaries. Boniface makes a deal with the son of the emperor of Byzantium, Alexius Angel, so that the crusaders besiege Constantinople and kill the emperor, and in return receive money for a campaign in Jerusalem.

Chapter 3. Task 1 - Walls of Constantinople


Knighted and False Templar
Constantinople, Byzantium, July 1203

Dentz's army is heading towards the walls of Constantinople. He is wearing new armor, which Esteban also liked. After a fiery speech by a Templar boy, a small detachment of crusaders with furious cries goes on the offensive.
Move along the wall, clearing the area of ​​enemies. When you reach the first siege tower, Esteban will climb it. Move on to the next siege tower. On it you can get to the wall. But keep in mind: you must have at least one soldier with you, otherwise Denz will get stuck against the wall.
So you made your way to the territory of the fortress. The goal is to destroy the trebuchets. If you go back a little along the wall, you will find a chest. Now go to the first trebuchet and destroy it with the Holy Fire. Go further and find the second trebuchet. Having dealt with him, inspect, and then destroy the wall standing behind. Do you see a small passage that ends with a door? There is a crucifix there.
Opposite the wall that was just destroyed, there is another wall that also needs to be destroyed.

Chapter 3. Task 2 - Golden Gate


Union of the Damned

Constantinople, later

You have arrived at the main entrance to the city, where Boniface and Baudouin are already waiting for you. The path inside is blocked by the majestic Golden Gate. Were they built for the giants?
Denz offers to join forces and burn the gates with the four of them. Boniface approves this proposal. After the burning procedure, it becomes clear that the Marquis of Montferrat needs sacred relics for a reason...
Now you must destroy the smoldering gate with a battering ram. You have already met with this procedure during the passage of the first chapter. Habitual QTE.
Further, as in the first chapter, you need to overcome the path to the iron grate, hiding under the mantles from the hail of arrows. When Denz picks up a crossbow, destroy the crossbowmen that have appeared. Walk forward a little more. Sword soldiers will appear. Deal with them, and then destroy the wooden fortifications with the Infernal Crossbow.
Failure. The gates are locked. Run straight in the opposite direction, to another grate. Along the way, near the tower in the center, you can find a crucifix.
Having reached the second mantle, repeat the procedure: pass - take cover - pass - shoot the crossbowmen - pass - kill the warriors - destroy the wooden fortifications. Again failure.

Chapter 3. Task 3 - Trapped


Angel protecting demons

"Allow me to introduce myself, Tatikiy Lente, the guard of Constantinople, the athlete of the Byzantine Empire!" - greeted our heroes another madman who dared to challenge them. Well, fight is fight. There seems to be a greater power than the curse, Dentz thought. "Chur his golden armor - mine!" thought Esteban.
So, a long and stubborn battle begins, requiring cunning and ingenuity, a kind of fight with the boss. There is no trick here: hit the athlete until he falls at your feet. And no holy defense will help him. However, it seems that the great Tatikiy has no concept of honor, and therefore cowardly runs away, leaving behind him to fight the newly arrived Vikings. In fact, they themselves offered it to him. By the way, near the arena, to the right of the destroyed column, a crucifix hangs in the air.
We exterminate our Norman guests and collect their thieves' weapons. After that, we move through the aforementioned column. Another trap. The boys are again being showered with arrows. Denz and Esteban decide to split up: one goes to the left, the other to the right.
We are going to the left. We go to the next "wall". It seems that the builders did not particularly comply with technical standards, since there are so many fragile places in the walls. So, we destroy the wall behind which the Vikings are already setting fire to us. We kill everyone and climb the stairs to the wall. If you go to the right, you will find a chest. But you need to go left. Enemies on the wall seem to never end, so try not to stay here for a long time.

Chapter 3. Task 4 - The Emperor is killed, the promise is forgotten


Byzantium, July 1203 - April 1204

So, the crusaders fulfilled their part of the contract. The title of Emperor of Constantinople now belongs to Alexy IV. However, he was in no particular hurry to fulfill the promise given to Boniface. After some time, the emperor was overthrown, and Boniface decided that he had every right to take the city by storm and appropriate its wealth.

Chapter 3. Task 5 - Blachernae Walls


In the belly of the beast

Constantinople, Byzantium, April 1204

The assault on Constantinople began. Dentz and Esteban, at the head of two siege towers, approach the walls of the city. Out of nowhere, archers appear, shooting fire arrows at you. Grab your crossbow and start shooting them methodically, otherwise your turret will burst into flames like a match. Finally, having reached the wall, go to the neighboring building and take out the door. Run to the end of the next wall.
Damn it. Looks like the idiot soldiers have destroyed the stone stairs and you can't get down to the ground now. No problem. Run back to the wall on which you landed from the siege tower, and along it to the ruined building. There will be another door that needs to be broken. But don't rush to do it. First, turn left and go to the end of the adjacent wall behind the chest.
After going through the door, run along the wall. Crossbowmen again! Shoot them and take out the next door. Behind her... another door. Walk to the end of the wall and go down the stairs. "Finally, solid ground" - Esteban thought at that moment.
Here you are attacked by the Vikings. Kill them and pick up their cool two-handed axes; D. See the gate with the double-headed eagle? (For those who are not in the know: the Russian coat of arms with a double-headed eagle came to us just the same from Byzantium). Near this gate hangs a crucifix. And you can naz the last chest near the cart. The last thing left to do is turn the mechanism near the wall to open the gate.

Chapter 3. Task 6 - Blachernae Gardens


The emperor is a killer

Constantinople, later

Hm. It seems that our heroes have discovered Murzufla - the very villain who overthrew Emperor Alexius, and because of whom they did not receive the promised money. Well, killing a scoundrel will bring fame to the guys, and fame will bring something more ...
To your left is what looks like a wooden scaffolding. They can be set on fire with sacred fire. Next, the Varangians are waiting for you. Deal with them and climb higher, to the wall. Suddenly you are attacked by crossbowmen. You can shoot them, or you can stab them - the choice is yours. So, after climbing the stairs, open the door and go further. A cutscene will follow, in which Denz learns about the location of Murzufla. And Esteban finds out that Denz is capable of sooo much.
Now you have reached the garden. Fight off enemies. Near one of the statues you will find a crucifix, and in the opposite corner - a chest. Now head to the gate, where Murzulf, the self-appointed emperor of Constantinople, will welcome you.
Like many rulers, Murzulf was accustomed to hiding behind guards. So he unleashes a horde of ghosts on you. They will appear and appear until you seal the stone wells. It's simple: explore them, and then destroy the columns one by one. When the wells collapse, you will return to reality. And you will be attacked by the same real enemies. Deal with them, and then open the grate and pursue Murzulf.

Chapter 3 Task 7 - At the Imperial Palace


Echoes of past battles

Constantinople, a minute later

The heroes continue to chase the pseudo-emperor. At the very beginning of the level, behind you, you can find a chest.
To be honest, this task reminded me of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and a few other old console games. It's simple - you only move forward, from time to time stopping at mini-arenas, without the possibility of advancement. In these arenas, you need to fight off a cloud of opponents. Kill everyone and move on. On the way you will see a huge gate. To the left of them is a crucifix.
So you got to Murzulf. This is one of the easiest bosses. All you have to do is slash him with swords (or whatever you have), and occasionally dodge fire attacks with QTW.

Chapter 3. Task 8 - Blachernae Baths


fire bath

Constantinople, a minute later

Well, our heroes ended up in ... a bathhouse. However, now, thanks to Murzuflu, you can mate in it in a split second. And in order not to turn into a couple of well-done steaks, Denz and Esteban must stop the emperor.
Shoot the villain with the Infernal Crossbow, and then burn it with a fire beam. After a couple of such manipulations, Murzulf will again run away from you, fearfully admitting that he has a worthy opponent in front of him.
Turn right and take out the door. If you go straight, you can find the curse. But in order to catch up with the emperor, you need to turn left, where another door is waiting for you. Destroy it and face Murzulf again. The scheme of the second battle with him is identical to the first. Burn the usurper with a fire beam, and he will retreat. Also in this episode, another curtain is lifted, hiding the true nature of the Curse.
Turn left and destroy another door. Now turn right and destroy the door again. Go to the room where Murzufl hid. Here you will be attacked by soldiers. Deal with them and destroy the next door.
Looks like one of the Varangians decided to take a piss. Very interesting scene =) Let's deal with the Vikings and go up the stairs, where the great emperor of Byzantium ran away from you. All you have to do is beat him until he falls. And then he will tell you everything he knows about the shrines...

Chapter 3. Task 9 - Capitol


All the secret becomes clear

Before you is the majestic Capitol, the central building of Constantinople. Boniface orders you to retrieve the relic from there. According to Murzulf, this relic is the Spear of Destiny. The one that pierced Jesus Christ.
Go around the building on the left. Defeat the crossbowmen and push the cart. Go right. See the statue with the spear in hand? Opposite her is a crucifix. But for now, you can't get it.
Go further and go down into the sewers. Everything around will burst into flames. Look to the left - there is a small porch that leads to a wooden staircase. Climb up it and you will find yourself just near the statue and the crucifix.
Examine the sewers and find another porch that also leads to a wooden staircase. It will take you to the Capitol.
Deal with the guards. See the stone coffin? Use Demonic Vision to inspect and then destroy the wall near him. By the way, there is a chest hidden behind the wall opposite.
So you have discovered a piece of the great Spear of Destiny. And Denz understands that with the help of this sacred relic, you can get rid of the curse.
Suddenly, the giant door shatters into pieces. The Marquis of Montferrat demands a relic for himself. However, Denz is not going to give it away. Boniface taunts them, says they have no idea what to do with the shrines, and gives them one last chance to submit to his will. In an unsuccessful attempt to kill the villain, Esteban gives him a clear answer. Apparently, the marquis was used to always getting what he wanted, so he decided to take the spear away by force.
Defeating Boniface is easy: hit him with sacred fire and burn him with a fire beam. However, the Duke of Montferrat is stronger than it was at first glance. He swings his sword over the head of the young de "Bayle and ...

Chapter 3. Task 10 - Nightmare III


Until the death separates us
Stopped moment

Dentz and Esteban find themselves trapped in the Soul Reaper again. This time it's much more dangerous. If you get close, you will die. Therefore, run away in the opposite direction with all legs. Beware of fire - it can burn you alive. When you get to the end of the bridge, destroy the nearby crucifix. Now go to the fountain. Here the heroes will learn a new ability - Fire Whirlwind. It's like a mass attack. Thanks to him, you can hit all nearby enemies. Practice on the ghosts and then burn the talking door. Cross the bridge. Hmm... Death really is everywhere...
Enter the fight with the Reaper. Burn it with fire and dodge attacks with QTE from time to time. Soon the enemy will fall under your onslaught.
Boniface will fall the same way. Before the cold edge of the blade could pierce Dentz's neck, he managed to throw the Marquis back, and Boniface lost consciousness. "There's nothing here, just some pathetic piece of wood," Esteban said disappointedly, taking a piece of the sacred crucifix from the duke's pocket.

Chapter 4. Task 1 - Theodosius Forum


Between the hammer and the anvil

Constantinople, a few minutes later

Your goal is to find the princess who keeps the third relic - the Crown of Thorns. It seems that JuBoniface was not stingy with setting a reward for the heads of our heroes. As soon as you find yourself in the square, you will be attacked by your former allies. Run straight to the other gate, fighting off the enemy along the way. Denz and Esteban slam the giant doors in front of the duke.
Run to the left, destroying opponents along the way. When you get to the next gate, the heroes will slam it shut and find themselves in... a dead end. Well then. If we cannot run away from someone, we must try to delay him. And for that, we need... a pretty strong argument. Weighing several hundred pounds.
Destroy the wooden supports that hold the column. A huge marble block, like a match, will break in half and fall right on Boniface, without raising a single speck of dust into the air. Unfortunately, the marquis is not so easy to kill...
Run straight, turn left. You are attacked by a new batch of enemies. Get even with them, but do not rush to go to the wall. First, turn right and find a crucifix near the cart.
Now go to the wall, and also turn right. Who is it there? It looks like our old friend, the guard of Constantinople, Tatikiy Lente.

Chapter 4. Task 2 - Constantine's Forum


Saving the enemy

Constantinople, a few minutes later

A grandiose square opens up to your gaze, with a giant column in the center. You need to get to Tactia.
Walk forward a little, then right, then right again. Push the cart and fight the knights. See the chest behind the wooden bars? You can inspect it and then destroy it.
Walk left, then left again. Move to the column. Near it a lot of enemies. Deal with them and destroy the grate behind the column. Behind it is a square. To the left of the main gate you can find a chest.
Move to the right. There you will find a cart. Push her away. A crucifix is ​​hidden behind one of the wooden bars on the left.
Go forward, destroy enemies, look for chests, push carts. When you destroy the last grating, you will see an athlete fighting furiously with countless enemies. You need to... help the guard deal with the knights. He, of course, will not ally with you, but nevertheless, he will not attack you.

Chapter 4. Task 3 - The road to the palace


Tracking down an angel

Constantinople, a minute later

As soon as the task begins, the Vikings will immediately attack you. Deal with them and go to the square, where you will be attacked by an infinite number of enemies. See the iron lattice gates? Opposite them, against the wall, is a crucifix.
Go through the gate. Crossbowmen. Shoot everyone and raise the next gate.
Wow, what people! Baudouin himself! We haven't seen him for a long time... And Tatikiy Lente is stretched out at his feet. Well, let's help out the negligent "hero" ...
The only difficulty in the battle with the former commander is that minions with shields are dancing around you, so they are hard to kill. And so, real busty - beat up Baudouin in the real world, then - in the world of the Damnation ...

Chapter 4. Task 4 - Temple Gallery


Strong Alliance

Constantinople, a minute later

Wow. You have an ally in the person of Tatikiy Lente. Although he does not fully trust you, but for the safety of Princess Theodora, he still decides to take you to her.
Kill all opponents in the yard. Then go to the metal gate and lift it up. A new batch of knights awaits you outside the gates. O_o How did the athlete of Byzantium turn out to be great, if we just left him outside the gate ???
From the dying Viking, we learn the location of the princess. And we also learn that a very strong enemy awaits us ... Who is he?
Move on and climb up the wall. We are witnessing a scene of cruel massacre of the crusaders over the knights. O_o Tatikiy again somehow mysteriously manages to join you...
Continue to methodically destroy enemies. Next, another gate awaits you. It looks like our newfound comrade-in-arms has learned to pass through walls... if only we could do this...
Anyway. Clear the courtyard of all the incoming crusader hordes and head to the wooden gate leading to the building, in the tower of which, apparently, the princess is hiding.

Chapter 4. Task 5 - Augusteion


great price

Constantinople, a minute later

You have infiltrated the territory of the Augustaion. Suddenly, as if from under the ground, a horde of ghosts grows around you. Kill them all to return to reality and fight against more dangerous enemies - knights. Then push the cart aside and... again fall into the trap of ghosts. And kill them all again, since it is not difficult when you have the ACCAA ax in your hands;)
Raise the gate and you will enter a beautiful courtyard with majestic statues. To your right, on the porch, Tatikiy is brandishing axes. Run to him.
Meet. The first and only woman you meet in the game is Princess Theodora. Yes, and that one is dumb. When Dentz tried to question her about the relic, he was interrupted by a voice from outside. The voice of an old friend...
It turns out that Boniface did not waste time, and managed to find the last relic. The crown of thorns had decayed long ago, but its petrified thorns were inlaid into a wooden cross. And with the help of this cross, the marquis kills poor Tactias in order to summon his new friend. Uh ... Well, my friend. 4 times higher than Boniface himself. The demon kills the unfortunate princess and tries to crush Esteban. Enraged, Denz begs the Marquis of Montferrat to spare the Spaniard in exchange for the return of the relics. Well, a deal is a deal. However, the demon does not disappear anywhere, and we will have to make a lot of efforts to defeat him...
So, the scheme of the battle with the boss is as follows: follow the advice of Esteban, hit him in the legs. When the monster bows its head in front of you, "purify" it with the help of the Holy Fire. Soon the demon will fall, and friends will go to pursue Boniface. After all, if they were able to destroy such a colossus, then they will cope with the Marquis even more so.

Chapter 4. Task 6 - Courtyard of Hagia Sophia


The traitor must die

Constantinople, a minute later

Rejoice! You are near one of the most beautiful places in the world... well, the world of those times. In fact, you have reached the Hagia Sophia under construction.
Boniface's wars will immediately attack you. Kill them and go forward. Turn right and climb up the stone embankment. Here you need to push the cart. Turn right. Ahead of you are waiting for the Marquis knights. Kill them, and then turn around and bring down the flashing yellow wooden structures. Follow them to the other side of the wall.
You have reached a small courtyard. Above the fountain in the center, you can find a cursed crucifix. Deal with the enemies and head into the open passage leading to a room with a mechanism that needs to be turned. The gates to the cathedral will open. That's where you need to be.

Chapter 4 Task 7 - Hagia Sophia


Those who fought the infernal hordes

Constantinople, a minute later

What the hell is this?! Do you have triplets in your eyes? The screen is divided into 3 parts? Game glitched?
Looks like no. Probably, one gigantic demon was not enough, and the developers decided to add another three. Although, on the other hand, everything is logical: three relics - three demons.
Well, we defeated one demon, we will defeat the rest.
Firstly, the demons will attack you one by one, which makes the task much easier. When the first demon attacks you, pay attention to the fiery circles in which two other monsters are enclosed. Next to them, to the left and to the right, are other circles made of stone tiles, above which hangs a picadilio (something like a huge lamp). The scheme is simple: when you lure the demon into the stone circle, beat him in the legs until the giant falls to his knees. Then pull the lever and the picadilio will slam its weight onto the monster's back with a roar. The same must be done with other demons. When the last monster is defeated, the gate will open. Run towards them and pursue Boniface.

Chapter 4. Task 8 - To the Bosphorus


From the flames of hell

Constantinople, a minute later

A gigantic monster is chasing our friends. Denz and Esteban rush with all their might... that is, with all their horses' hooves, they rush towards the Bosporus Strait, on the banks of which the ballistas stand. The heroes dismount and jump on them. Shot, another shot - and lo and behold, the monstrous demon fell to the ground, hit by huge arrows right in the head. Ehhh, it’s a pity that they didn’t let us do it ourselves, but just showed a video!
Well, our business in Constantinople is over, and the guys decide to go to Syria in order to find Jean de Beyle, Denz's father. After all, it is he who knows the location of the fourth relic.

Chapter 4. Task 9 - Leaving the Ruined Empire


April - May 1204

Murzufl escaped. Tactius Lente is dead. Constantinople was left without defenders. Greed took possession of the hearts of the crusaders. They robbed, killed, desecrated sacred relics. They swore to lift the sword only against the infidels. Now their blades were stained with the blood of innocent people.
Byzantium was left without an emperor. Boniface disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Therefore, the imperial throne was occupied by his closest associate ... Who would you think? Baudouin himself...

In the meantime, our heroes crossed the Bosporus and set off for Krak des Chevaliers - a fortress in which, according to Dentz, his father is located.

Chapter 5. Task 1 - In the fortress


At the edge of the worlds

Syria, May 1204

Welcome to Krak des Chevaliers. A fortress built by the ancient Templars. A fortress that no one has yet managed to conquer. The fortress where Jean de Bayle, the keeper of the last relic of the Lord, is located.
But what is it? It seems that Boniface has already managed to get here - zombie-like wars are coming out to meet you. It seems the marquis has learned to use the power of the relics to raise the dead from the earth.
...Kill the dead. Go forward. Promotion will not be difficult for you, as the corridors do not branch out. Along the way, you will be transported to the world of damnation and will not be able to return back until you kill all the ghosts. When you reach the stairs leading to the wall, climb it - there is a chest waiting for you.
Go forward all the time. You will reach a kind of balcony, in one of the openings you can find a crucifix.
After that, you will have a fork in front of you: a room with a wooden floor. Stairs up or stairs down? You need a ladder down. Going down it, the heroes will fall into the Templar wine cellars. Yeah, there's enough alcohol here until World War II...
At the exit from the cellar, a new horde of undead will be waiting for you. Nothing, we are no longer used to joyful meetings ... After the battle, turn left and go straight to the chapel.
Here they are, the gates of Hell. Living, warm blood nourishes them, does not allow them to close. But nothing, now we will contribute to this.
The scheme is simple: Esteban distracts the enemy, you "clear" the Gate. The best way here is to use Fire Whirl. Thus, you will not only deal damage to the gates, but also be able to drive away the annoying undead from you.
The gates of hell are closed. However, the Templar still has a premonition that something is wrong here. Look around the room. On the far left side of the cathedral, you will find a wall that can be broken. And behind her...

Chapter 5. Epilogue


Meeting old friends

Cairo, Egypt, a few weeks later

Congratulations, your crusade is over.
Although...
Judging by the final video, we have yet to meet the young Templar and his faithful friend again.
The villains are still alive, but the heroes aren't dead either. Therefore, we can only hope for the best and wait for the continuation of this wonderful game.

Task 1: Old Templar
Syrian desert, winter 1198

This is just a starter video. In the Russian version of the game, it will be in Russian and in much better quality.

Chapter 1

Task 1: Winter Evening
Lost Souls
France, same time

Finally, you will be allowed to chop your enemies into cabbages. The story of the young Dentz de Bayle begins, a Templar knight who has inherited a family curse.
Many players immediately have questions about control, and personally, instead of part of the keyboard keys, for some reason, icons from the gamepad appeared. So I will describe it here, but of course, you can find out and change all this in the game settings:

You will need to do this when you run away to the Church from the Soul Reaper (you will also need to just move forward there), and in further game cutscenes.

  • Healing: get close to your partner (when you have him), hold Shift + right mouse button.
  • To help with the battles, I will add a feature that I opened somewhere in the middle of the game: you can constantly press space, and then the attacks of the enemies will be repulsed every time! You will be able to take almost no damage.


Task 2: Assault on Biron Castle
Clash of Fates
France, Biron Castle, summer 1199

Dentz lost his home and means, and therefore he is forced to earn money by mercenary, fighting for money.
This time he is ordered to storm Beron Castle.
Here he first met the Spaniards Esteban. Now they will have to make their way under the walls of the castle together, hiding behind mantles (like a large mobile shield).
Go forward, and as soon as a cloud of arrows appears in the sky, hold down the space bar. I had three such volleys. Then move the mantle again.
Then you will be given a crossbow in your hands. Press left arrow then press shift to aim. Contrary to the statements of the game, the shot is fired at right mouse button, not by space. First, shoot those archers below, and then those above, in the loopholes. Finally, the last archer will jump out to the balcony on the left.
Denz throws and sets fire to the saltpeter. Shoot at the crossbowmen again, and then run towards the ram. Press E to climb it, then Q to call for help. Now QTE, the principle of which is described above.
So, the battle inside the castle! You can use environmental items that flash in silver. When the enemy is nearby, press E. When you kill everyone in close combat, you will be asked to take a crossbow. Click the down arrow. Shoot the crossbowman.
Now you need to climb higher. Approach the wooden stand and press E. Now you need to make your way forward on top.
Activate and push the ballista to open the passage.
You go up the stairs, then a small mess inside the castle, and then on the walls. By the way, there will be a rather interesting camera position, almost like in a 2D platformer.
Finally a battle with the owner of the castle, a real knight in heavy armor. He is stronger than ordinary opponents, and it takes longer to beat him. First as a human, then as a demon. It turns out that this is the same Marten from the introductory video.



Task 3: Ekri Tournament

Redemptive Crusade
Ecri Castle, July 1199

Dentz decides to take part in a jousting tournament in order to go on a crusade against the city of Jerusalem. He thinks his father is there. It so happened that he is late for one-on-one battles, and he needs a partner for the two-not-two tournament. Esteban Novembre, who has followed Dentz from the very storming of the castle, becomes him.
So, in training you will be taught to break the defense. To do this, approach the enemy and click on the mouse wheel (aka "middle button"), and then perform a blow with the right or left button. Repeat three times, and then you can press Q and complete a simple tutorial.
Here is the tournament! With the first opponent, you will have to repeat the breaking of the defense. Your enemies are being carried away from the battlefield, and you must learn a new technique.
Counterattack. It consists in pressing the spacebar at the time when the enemy is swinging, and then attacking him himself.
The second fight in the tournament will take place on axes. Use counterattack and win.
We study evasion. While swinging an enemy, press the middle mouse button and then attack. If you don't make it in time, you'll be stunned and will need to quickly respond to QTEs. It’s not that we’ll take it very useful, after all, a counterattack is preferable.
Defeat your third opponent.
Now you need to check the status of the weapon. Press R. Now pick up another sword by pressing E. Indeed, to fight with half of the sword somehow ...
However, your last fourth opponent will have to be defeated with a broken blade. The fight is difficult, if you fall quickly press Q so that your partner helps you get up. After defeating the first enemies, more will come. Yes, it's not fair, but by defeating them you will definitely win glory. Finally, you can take a normal claymore and easily defeat all opponents. Well, for a snack, a battle in demonic form. It's pretty simple. So, after the victory, you will be invited to join the army, which was required.


Task 4: Chase on a moonlit night
The gift of getting into trouble
Ecri Castle, the next night

New Focus: Demonic Form. It will appear in the upgrade window, where you can read the details. Press C to enter this mode.
Initially, two abilities are available to you: "healing aura" (get close to your partner (when you have him), hold Shift + right mouse button) and "altered consciousness" (see below).
In the lower left corner is a health indicator (green) and just the same "curse indicator" (red). These points are spent on being in the form of a demon and on trying out abilities. If he falls, his health will begin to decrease rapidly. Get out of this mode quickly, otherwise you risk summoning a Soul Reaper behind you.

Night. Denz and Esteban talk about their plans on the way to the camp, and at this time, the mercenaries of Baudouin, whom you defeated in the tournament, approach them. Good way test the powers of the demon. Be careful, at any moment the Reaper may come for you. In this case, press Q and E, and hope that your partner is close. You will reach an ambush of archers who need to be killed with a crossbow. Then, with the help of Esteban, you will push out the wagon that is preventing you from passing. Then a battle with numerous opponents, and again with archers. With the help of a partner, climb onto their fortification. Walk through it and go down. You will be taught to look for weak spots in the walls in curse mode. To do this, go to the wall and press E. Then again to destroy it. Kill a few enemies and then roll back the wagon.
To lower the bridge from the castle, you need to find a lifting mechanism. Kill the enemies and go up the stairs to the watchtower. There will be a nasty mess there. After the victory, you will be able to lower the bridge using the mechanism. Go down the stairs and watch the cutscene.


Task 5: Forest paths
Out of the frying pan into the fire
France, a minute later

Our heroes were able to get out of the castle on horseback, despite the best efforts of the mercenaries. Finally they get to Villardouin's camp. And here is the culprit of all misfortunes, Baudouin of Flanders. You will have to fight him and his soldiers. It will be difficult, and it is quite possible that Esteban will have to wait for your help. Approach and press E. Don't go too far from him. Also, be prepared for the appearance of the Reaper. Always keep one hand on the arrows to press the right one when needed. Soon Villardouin will stop the fight and allow you to enter the camp.


Task 6: Nightmare I
in a loop
That same night...

From the video you will finally learn about the essence of the curse. This is a plot point, so I will not describe it further.
Welcome to Hell! Literally. Or a place like it.
Climb up the stairs and fight the ghosts. Chop them up and run past. A few more such flights. Here is Esteban.
New Ability: Cleansing Fire. Hold Shift, select a target and press E to set it on fire. Use this ability to defeat all ghosts. Those that are orange cannot be defeated with a sword - only with fire. Then burn the door from which the voice was heard. Run across the bridge. After you deal with the ghosts, use the sacred fire on the crucifix, which burns with a blue flame. In subsequent tasks, there will be more crucifixes that can be seen in demon mode, and which need to be burned.
Finally, the Reaper himself will appear for your soul. Use sacred fire on him. When "contact" happens - press E many times. And when it weakens - attack with a sword. The battle will take place in two stages. It's not that hard, but if you lose, you'll have to start the level from the beginning. Alas, checkpoints in this game are very rare.


Task 7: Unfulfilled hopes
Republic of Venice, summer 1202

In a short sketch, Jean de Bayle talks about what happened during the two years that separate the first and second chapters.

Chapter 2




Mission 1: Tower of Zara

Debt the size of a city
Zara, Kingdom of Croatia, November 1202

That's it. Esteban messed up on the ship, so he and Dentz are sent on a "suicide mission", well, just like in mass effect. On the boat you sail to the tower. Climb up and climb up. A little further, use the demon mode and find a weak spot in the wall. By the way, ghosts will now appear in this mode. Kill the required amount on the level - get an "extra" skill point. Perebeyte sentry and iditol to the stairs. Another squad, and now you need to destroy two ballista with the help of sacred fire. Then go up the next ladder up. Kill the guards and find the right mechanism However, to get to it you need to find another entrance. You climb onto the roof and kill everyone there. There is also a bloody crucifix in the area. It also gives a skill point. Break through the wall and go inside, go down the stairs and fight the ghosts. Activate the lifting mechanism. Exit where the grate was. Kill the guards and exit through the gate.

Task 2: Landing at the port
Illegal intrusion
Zara, the next morning

After a heartfelt speech from Commander Baudouin, you are thrown into battle. In order not to fall under the arrows, hold the space bar to take cover with a shield. You must quickly get to the gate and kill everyone there. Now you will need to go along the wall along the coast, killing enemies along the way. Help will join you. You will be able to burn the grate in demon mode. Now the battle is in the courtyard of the fortress. Approach the grate and lift it in the "normal" mode. There will be a battle already on the wall. Destroy the ballista. Go back a little and in demon mode, burn the barrier on the way. Burn the second ballista, and then the third. Open the gate with the mechanism. Burn the grate and move on.


Task 3: Old streets of Zara
Task for one
Zara, the same morning

You have been sent to open new gates. And immediately the battle. By the way, you now have a crossbow. It will come in handy if the enemies are at a great distance from you, then it will be possible to kill a few at once, before the melee begins. At first glance, there are several ways, but forward is the one where there are soldiers. When you're done with them, raise the grate to go through. Go through the courtyard and meet the soldiers. Raise another grate. New battle. Soldiers will run out of the remarkable "landscaped" lane. Some kind of grid. Behind her are the last soldiers and the last bars.

Task 4: Road to the peninsula

Defending iron and wood
Zara, a minute later

Here are the gates. While the partner is holding back the soldiers, you must burn them. Baudouin is right there. Indeed, why send soldiers when the gate can be opened with a ballista? Obviously not out of love.

Now you need to protect this ballista from enemy soldiers. Therefore, the killing priority is precisely those who attack this siege weapon.

There will be several waves of soldiers. Then the ballista will stop in front of the gate, and you will have to go to the right and open it. Raise the grate. Break through to the target. Find the gate you need, behind which you will see the ballista. Open them with the lifting mechanism. Do you think everything? No matter how. Again the ballista rolls, again it is attacked, again it is necessary to raise the bars. Beat the soldiers and find another lifting mechanism. Protect the ballista. Set fire to the grate in demon mode.

Task 5: Fortified bridge
Water wears away the stone
Zara, later

For the sake of this moment, you sweated with the ballista the entire previous task.
Use the up and down keys to adjust the height of the shot, left and right, in fact, point it horizontally. You need to shoot at four wooden awards on two towers.
Now run across the bridge. Kill soldiers with a bow. Burn down the gate. "The Sign of the Lord"? Rather the opposite...
Make your way across the bridge to the inner gate. To open them, you will have to look for a lifting mechanism again. Approach the bridge railing, which appears to be unstable in Demon Mode. Here you are jumping down. Now break through the hull of the ship that is blocking the passage with the help of sacred fire.
Sewerage. Well, what in our time the game does without it? Go through one of the passages, which seems to be to the left of the entrance. There will be a very confident guard. Come out to the walls again. Take ammo and shoot the archers below. Get down, kill the soldiers and enter the tower with the lifting mechanism. Climb the wall again and go through it further. If you go down in front of the castle, you will find four ghosts. Climb up to the castle.


Task 6: The Five Wells of Zara
A curse that can be broken
Zara, later

Baudouin set out to take all the glory and treasure for himself. Suddenly, right?
Go down to the courtyard. You will be met by the commander of the guards, who has demonic power. He will tell you about those very wells and attack. First you need to get rid of 20 ghosts. Search the arena for a crucifix and chests. If the weapon breaks, then there is a new one on the rack. Then you can defeat the captain in human form. When he is left without armor, he will again turn into a demon and summon ghosts. Find them all and burn them. The battle is back to normal. Are you tired of ghosts yet? After the victory, watch the video.

Task 7: At Zara's Castle
Intentions are worse than deeds
Zara, later

You will see a dialogue between two comrades, complementing the plot of the previous task. So let's go to the city. Step into the harmless-looking courtyard and...
You fall into a trap. Use crossbow. In general, it is strange - then the hero has a crossbow, then a bow, now a crossbow again ... and all in one day!
You go up to the second floor. Burn doors in demon mode. Go down the stairs and join the fight. In demon mode, destroy the wall. Kill the soldiers and drive away the wagon to get through. You are just in time to help a squad of warriors. Then kill the archers and burn the gate. Your commander will appear and lay out all the cards.


Rear 8: Fall of Zara
Secrets of a divided soul
Zara, a minute later

It remains to kill the ruler of Zara - the damned Vladislav. Follow Baudouin and fight the last defenders of the city. Roll back the ballista to go further. Kill more soldiers, take the arrows and raise the grate. Apparently, this is where Baudouin's courage ended. Shoot at the archers. There will be the first false grate in the game - you will burn it, and there is nothing behind it. Go down below and roll the ballista out of the way. Shoot at the archers. But behind this grate there will already be a chest. And after the next - in general, a crucifix with a beating heart. The following opponents are all with shields, they are only killed through breaking the defense. And the following opponents even without shields. Raise the grate.
"And here is Vlad, but you're not happy!" - you can remember your favorite phrase of the character of the same name from Max Payne. Well, our Vladislav's head is clearly not all right, he talks to himself and suffers from a split personality. And he really does not want to give you his charm chest.
Give him a few hits and he will turn into a demon. But first, for some reason, you have to fight with two ghosts. Then Vladislav will appear in the regular world, but will become much stronger. The operation will be repeated several times. Then the brave commanders will come with a chest and open it.

Task 9: Nightmare II
Unworthy son, prodigal father
Zara, in the evening of the same day

Esteban makes his way to the commander's tent at night to sniff out the details. After the video, he and Denz will again fall into the nightmare of the Reaper of Souls.
Climb higher by killing ghosts. For a very long time, Denz will talk with his father, not really knowing the real he, or just an illusion of this place. You will get to the site with some more "bodily" ghost. Then further, all higher. In the only descent a little lower there will be a crucifix that needs to be burned. You will reach the fountain again. By the way, since in this world all normal things appear to be on fire, and those that are on fire appear blue, it means that the fountain is on fire.
The new ability is Roaring Flames, but I'd rather call it Hell's Crossbow. To summon it, hold Shift and press the left mouse button. You can shoot with the Spacebar and aim with the Shift. To take the sword, press the left button.
Defeat all ghosts. You can now burn the talking gate with the new crossbow.
Again the Reaper of Souls and a huge number of ghosts. Shoot the reaper on the hill with your crossbow. When two hellfires come into contact, press E quickly and for a long time to win. When he goes down, you can defeat him with a sword. Repeat the operation until the end.


Mission 10: Saving the Empire
November 1202 - July 1203

Jean de Bayle talks about why the crusaders decided to attack Constantinople in Byzantium.

Chapter 3




Task 1: Walls of Constantinople

Knighted False Templar
Constantinople, Byzantium, July 1203

So, under another interesting pretext, Dentz and Esteban are sent to Byzantium. The ship lands in the port, right under the walls of the city. Kill the first squad you come across. Approach the siege tower. Esteban and his squad climb up the wall, while Denz continues his advance below. New enemies will appear. Soon you will be completely alone. Reach the new siege tower and climb up to Esteban. If you go back a little along the wall, you will find a chest. But we go ahead. You will reach a trebuchet, which is guarded by a whole detachment of soldiers. First they will have to be killed. Then set fire to the trebuchet in daemon mode. From the bottom, go back a little and find the last third chest. And ahead will be the second trebuchet. Now enter demon mode and bring down the wall. Guards will meet you inside. There will also be another extremely fragile wall. Defeat a few guards and climb the wall.

Task 2: Golden Gate
Union of the Damned
Constantinople, later

After successfully destroying the trebuchets, you will meet with the generals.
The inner gates of Constantinople cannot be rammed. But is it possible to frighten those damned by the Devil himself with a large piece of wood? By the way, a new detail of the plan of the Marquis of Montferrat will open in the screensaver.
However, you still have to finish what you started with a battering ram. Familiar already QTE.
Next is another gate. Again, you will have to hide from arrows behind mantles, as during the assault on Biron Castle. Stop half way and shoot at the archers. Step left, Shift, aim, shoot. At the very gates there will be ordinary guards. Set fire to two wooden fortifications with the devil's crossbow in demon mode. Turn around and walk straight back. The cursed crucifix will be on a small tower, you will hear the beating of the heart. Take another mantle and make your way to the second gate. As before - we hide from arrows, kill archers, set fire to fortifications. And the second time is unsuccessful ... and there is nothing golden in these gates.

Task 3: Trapped
Angel protecting demons

You are challenged by a very representative opponent - the Guardian of Constantinople, an athlete of the Byzantine Empire named Tatikiy Lente. Yes, you can’t refuse him eloquence.
First, there is a bloody crucifix near the arena. Second, just beat Tatikiy just enough to make him retreat. There is no focus.
Then he will run away, and the brave Vikings will leave to fight. There are also ghosts here. After defeating the Varangians, climb over the fallen column. You are directly under fire. Run to the left and Esteban will run to the right. There will be a ghost. And the wall, which the builders did not add cement. And behind it are the brave Vikings, guarding the chest and the passage forward. Climb up the stairs. There will be a chest on the wall to the right, and enemies on the left, that's where you need to go. If you climb the first stairs to the elevation, you will find the last ghost and a chest. By the way, the enemies on the wall are clearly endless. So try to run them as fast as possible.

Task 4: Emperor killed, promise forgotten
Byzantium, July 1203 - April 1204

You will be told why, after the capture of Constantinople, a few months later, the assault on the city began anew.

Task 5: Blachernae Walls
In the belly of the beast
Constantinople, Byzantium, April 1204

Esteban excelled again! No, he did not cheat at dice, and moreover, he scored positively, but you are still sent to the front line with a responsible task.
You need to hold Shift to shoot at the archers on the walls, exactly in the shooting range. You then land directly on the same wall and have to fight the Byzantines. Make your way to the tower and chop everyone. Find a chest and a ghost there. Then examine and break the bars in demon mode. Get on the wall and kill the guards. Go back, you will almost fall under a stone. Make your way back to the same tower, and then to the very first wall. Knock out the grate. In this tower you will find the second chest. Again you leave to the new wall, on it there will be the third chest. Then return to the tower and knock out the bars. Walk along the wall and reach the enemy archers. Take a crossbow and shoot at them. Go to the tower and knock out the grate. How many of them are there ... Kill the guards and knock out another grate leading to another wall. Finally, there will be a staircase down. There will be soldiers, a lone ghost, the last chest and a cursed crucifix near the wooden gate. At the end, you will need to use the lifting mechanism.

Task 6: Blachernae Gardens
assassin emperor
Constantinople, later

Our heroes notice Murzufla, who made such a coup unfavorable for the Crusaders. They decide to capture him on their own.
There will be a chest right in front of you, don't miss it. On the left is a wooden structure that can be set on fire with sacred fire. Pass through the formed passage and fight with the Vikings. At first there will be few of them, but then solid help will come. From the valuable in this garden there is a chest, under the wall. Climb the stairs to the gate, then go back down. There will be an arrow fight. If needed, there is a crossbow in the central gazebo. Now you can open this lattice at the top. After a short cutscene, kill the oncoming enemies. On the right is a crucifix. Then approach the gate. Here is Murzufl, he will unleash ghosts on you. To drive them away, you need to bring down the columns around the wells. Approach them and press E. Don't forget to kill 35 ghosts. Then a battle with ordinary soldiers. Now raise the grate.

Task 7: At the Imperial Palace
Echoes of past battles
Constantinople, a minute later

The pursuit of the emperor continues. You can immediately find the chest. Move forward killing the soldiers. I must say, none of the stages of the game has so much reminded me of the old scrollers. You'll be slicing your way out of several small arenas, all with a camera tightly screwed on. Look for chests and a crucifix along the way.
At the end there will be a battle with the emperor himself. Learn to catch his fire attacks in QTE, and then by pressing E to transfer fire to him. Well, just gouge with weapons. In the end, he will run away with his tail between his legs (c) Esteban.

Task 8: Blachernae Baths
fire bath
Constantinople, a minute later

Here it is - a real Byzantine fire bath.
Start burning Murzufla with the infernal crossbow, and then crush E.
When he escapes again, break the bars on the right. You will find a crucifix and ghosts. Break another grate. Go to the center of the pool. Repeat the operation to burn Murzufla. You will also need to kill not only E, but also the left mouse button, and there will also be QTE.
After a heartfelt speech, break the bars on the other side. You will immediately meet a ghost, you can find several chests and another ghost. Break the grate to the exit to the center. And all just because Esteban doesn't want to get his feet wet?...
The grate on the opposite side can also be broken, behind it is a chest and ghosts. Come forward, you must have missed the soldiers. On the left will be the last chest. When you kill everyone, break the bars.
Fight the guards. Move on and up the stairs (it can be hard to see, it goes straight to the camera).
At the end there will be the last battle with the insidious Murzufl. Like the first time, everything is very simple. We set fire to it, and then we cut it. We watch the video and the story of Murzufla.

Task 9: Capitol
All the secret becomes clear
Constantinople, a few hours later

The Marquis will provide you with a sacred relic from the Capitol.
A little to the right you will find a chest. But you still have to go around to the left, under the fire of archers. Push the cart. On the left you will find the second chest. And the soldiers will come running. Move on and break the grate, go down into the dungeon. There will be many cursed souls that cannot be killed. Just run past and up the stairs. Now you are inside the Capitol. Fight the guards. In demon mode, destroy the wall. We watch the plot video, but do not waste it!
Fight recent allies while the Marquis of Montferrat is out of reach.

Task 10: Nightmare III
Until the death separates us
Stopped moment...

Third nightmare, Soul Reaper's trap. Run away from him to the left. Don't touch the fire, it does damage. And hurry, if the Reaper catches up with you, you will die. Find the fountain again, which will give the last ability.
It's called "Firestorm". Clamp Shift and middle button (wheel) on the mouse. You can immediately destroy the crucifix without even seeing it. Exterminate the ghosts. Open the gate with the good old holy fire.
Destroy all ghosts and zombies with new ability. You have to fight the reaper himself. For a change, you have to hammer on ... the mouse wheel ?! There are no words to describe how uncomfortable this is. Remember that you need to kill 60 ghosts. To defeat the Reaper, it must be properly fried, but shredded with a sword, nothing more.

Chapter 4




Task 1: Theodosius Forum

Between the hammer and the anvil

A bounty has already been announced for our heroes, and corrupt crusaders are eager to receive it. Kill them. Near the wall, behind a small fence you will find a chest. Go further, you will find a ghost and soldiers. Go through the gate.
While Boniface is burning the door, go to the left and break through the soldiers. Get to the next gate.
Theodosius' column, which sometimes loomed on the horizon, was not destined to be completed. In demon mode, set fire to the props around it. Indeed, a very convincing "argument". Now kill the soldiers, find the chest and the ghost. Run to where the soldiers came from. Along the way you will find a chest and a crucifix.


Task 2: Constantine's Forum

Saving the enemy
Constantinople, a few minutes later

Another column on the horizon. Do you also remember Tatikiy Lente, an athlete warrior in gilded armor? You need to catch up with him.
Move forward, archers will appear high on the wall. Move the wagon. Fight the soldiers. By the way, the bars here can also be brought down in demon mode. Behind one of them will be a chest. Break forward. One of the wagons can be destroyed by a blow to go further. Fight the crusaders, already on the side of the Byzantines. There will be a chest on the dais. Below and opposite there will be another one, as well as a ghost.
You will come close to a column surrounded by soldiers. You need to destroy the grate. Walk around and kill everyone. There will be a chest on a hill in front of some large building. You need to go to the branch from the circle and move the wagon. There will be soldiers, a ghost, a crucifix behind bars under the wall, a chest near the wagons. You need to destroy the grate to meet Lente. Help him fight back.

Task 3: The road to the palace
Tracking down an angel
Constantinople, exactly one minute later

You find yourself inside some unfinished building, most likely a stall. You will find a Varangian, ghosts and a lone chest here. Go outside through the gate. If you go along the right wall, you will find a cursed crucifix. Kill the first batch of Varangians in the square, keep in mind that they are endless. At the other end you will find a chest. But you must go to the gate, which is on the left. Raise the grate. In the courtyard you will be met by archers on the walls, as well as two ghosts. If you go around the leftmost stakes, you will find the last chest. Pick up the grate on the other side of the yard. Here is your old friend Baudouin. Are you bored?
Kill the crusaders and don't forget about the ghosts, but the main thing is Baudouin. Soon the battle will move to the demonic world. Nothing complicated, everything is as usual.

Task 4: Temple Gallery
Strong Alliance
Constantinople, a minute later

Kill everyone in this yard, including three ghosts and one chest. There will be a grate at the other end. Ahead are soldiers and ghosts, and on the right behind the stakes is a chest. A little further on the right side there will be another one. Also soldiers. Kill them, hear from the fallen Varangian about where to look for the princess. Make your way to the end and find a wall you can climb over. There will be someone to chop into meat stew. As well as the last three ghosts. Approach the gate and go through the bars to the aid of the valiant Byzantine warriors. On the left wall is the last chest. And in the corner at the end of the right there will be a crucifix. Perebeyte all the soldiers and go to the gate.

Task 5: Augusteion
great price
Constantinople, a minute later

Go forward and you will immediately have a battle with ghosts. They can be quickly destroyed with the Fire Whirl ability. Then ordinary soldiers. There is a crucifix in a niche in the wall. Drive off the wagon. There will be another extermination of ghosts. Then climb over the grate. You will enter a courtyard with another huge tower. Follow Lente to the temple entrance. Oh, it’s not for nothing that the courtyard of this temple seemed to me an arena.
Here is the battle with a terrible demon as tall as a house. You can kill the last ghosts and open the chests.
How to slay the demon: Follow Dentz's advice and kick him in the legs, dodging as soon as he swings. When he falls - burn with sacred fire (Shift + E, if you suddenly forgot). Keep an eye on the condition of the weapon, there are many replacements for it. That's all the tricks, just be patient.

Task 6: Courtyard of Hagia Sophia
The traitor must die
Constantinople, a minute later

Boniface's men will immediately attack you. Kill them with taste. Then shoot the archers on the far wall. Out of nowhere, a squad of help will come running. There will be ghosts in a small alley. In another, you can find a chest. On the right you will find a wagon that you can push. A little further you can find soldiers and ghosts. And the wooden fortification needs to be burned. Then you can get over the wall. To the right is a chest. Soldiers gathered in the square near the fountain. Very conveniently, you can first say hello to them from a crossbow. Approach the fountain and use the fiery whirlwind. There is a chest waiting for you in the far corner to the left. And right in the center is the entrance to the tower with a lifting mechanism. Are you bored?
True, the gates will not rise, but will swing open, but that is not the point.

Task 7: Hagia Sophia
Those who fought the infernal hordes
Constantinople, a minute later

Did one demon seem too easy for you? The developers of the game came to the same opinion, so now there are THREE of them!
It's simple: lure the demon into a circle marked on the floor, peck him in the legs when he falls - pull the lever a little to the side. And voila - the chandelier falls, and only memories remain of the demon. Repeat three times - there will be enough giant candelabra for everyone.
At the end, a grate will rise, and you need to go there.

Task 8: To the Bosphorus
From the flames of hell
Constantinople, a minute later

A small video about how our friends left Byzantium.

Task 9: Leaving the Ruined Empire
April-May 1204

Jean de Beyle tells about the fate of Constantinople and the army of the Crusaders, who never reached the Holy Land.

Chapter 5




Task 1: In the fortress

At the edge of the worlds
Syria, May 1204

And then there's Syria. Here is the fortress of the Templars - Krak des Chevaliers. Dentz hopes to find his father here.
Instead, you are greeted by zombie-like soldiers called from the underworld. There will also be ghosts and a chest inside. Pass further along the hospitable fortress. It immediately becomes clear why she did not submit to the Saracens. From time to time ghosts and chests will come across. The path is extremely linear. On the next flight, you will notice a ladder with a chest on it. Soon there will be a large flight of stairs with ghosts. There is a chest in the nook next to the barrel. Rise higher and higher. As you walk along the wall facing the outside, you will hear a heartbeat. You will reach a spacious room with a wooden floor. Kill everyone and go down the stairs. Judging by the number of barrels, the Templars were still drunkards. In a small corner next to the barrels, you will find the last chest. There will be ghosts again. Finally you get to courtyard. Kill everyone there.
Here is the chapel where the terrible event took place. You must close the gates to Hell.
Since the enemies are endless, drive them away with a fiery whirlwind and burn the one who was sacrificed with sacred fire.
On the left, you can make a hole in the wall - in demon mode, of course.

Task 2: Epilogue
Meeting old friends
Cairo, Egypt, a few weeks later

No comment. To be continued obviously...

P.S. I hope your nerves, hands, keyboard and mouse are in better health than mine :)
