Played this when I was 12 and loved it, love it as an adult despite its flaws wish it could get a proper re release Fun game with some serious jank, but if you have that nostalgia for it. Mmmmmm, ain't it fucking nice

Playing it now as an adult who once traced magazine screenshots with longing, I’m struck by gratitude. This isn’t just a game, it’s a testament to perseverance; my own journey to finally wield Gerald’s blade. Flaws and all, The Crusaders remains a relic of ambition. And playing it after 20 years feels like reclaiming a piece of childhood wonder. Thank you, Blueside. The wait was worth it.

An extremely unique RTS / RPG. Perfectly melding Hack'n'Slash with tactical army management. It kind of plays like a simplified Total War game where you control the commander in battle yourself. I'm glad I stumbled upon this one. There is very limited 'grand strategy'. You are usually just picking which battlefield to go to next in a fairly linear fashion. A large part of the fun is allocating experience points to units and choosing their skills and jobs. The choices you make will largely effect your ability to progress in the game but there are also many different compositions and play styles you can choose to succeed. The story is engaging, a little dated and in some cases hilariously translated or voice acted. It could be better but it works. The art style and character designs are fantastic. My only frustration with this game, is that for some reason, in the PC port, the word Patriarch or any variation like Patriarchal has been cut from the audio, and it comes up a lot. This can sometimes make following the dialog a bit confusing because it doesn't just blank the word, it's cut and the word is instantly skipped. Also I have no idea why such a word would be cut. It is a strange use of the word admittedly but there is no reason to censor it.

Jumping back into Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders on Steam feels like rekindling an old friendship. Originally an OG Xbox classic, this game has made the transition to PC with nearly flawless execution. It's a unique mix of RTS, hack 'n' slash, and RPG elements—a combination that feels rare, even today, two decades later. The story, while limited by the era it was created in, still packs a punch, and the characters are unforgettable. Whether it's the nostalgia or the depth of each protagonist, I found myself genuinely invested in their journeys. With four campaigns spanning about 20 hours, you’ll experience an escalating challenge that really keeps you on your toes. The level progression and ability to power up through items make the grind worthwhile, and it’s super rewarding to feel your units get stronger with each mission. Though the graphics show their age, the gameplay and story still feel relevant—almost timeless. If you’re into RTS and RPGs, Kingdom Under Fire: The Crusaders is a must-play. Its unique blend of genres and immersive campaigns will pull you in and keep you hooked. Highly recommended!

When i discovered that this had been put onto steam, i immediately purchased. Its been years since i played, but it is still just as good now. It has its moments sure, but honestly, it does what it does better than some other games that are somewhat similar. If you've played Viking: Battle for Aasgard, you know what i mean. This game came out 4 years earlier on a previous generation system, is twice as good and a hell of a lot more fun. Definitely worth 20 dollars in my opinion.
