Reviews:

Quandary Reviews by Gordon Aplin

"Visually, The Legend of the Prophet and the Assassin is spectacular. It is played from a first-person perspective interspersed with some stunning third-person cut sequences. The music certainly adds to the atmosphere and the voice of As-Sayf is provided by Geoffrey Bateman whom many will remember from his role as the voice of Mephistopheles in Arxel Tribe’s Faust."

"The story is quite interesting as far as it goes but there isn’t that sense of resolution or completion so, to be fair, it really does need to be labelled as part one of a two part series." - Note: See The Secrets of Alamut.

Just Adventure by Randy Sluganski

"The Legend of the Prophet and the Assassin was written by prominent author Paulo Coelho and delves into issues of spirituality and ethics that are practically unheard-of in the gaming community. For this reason alone LOPA would come highly recommended, even though the limitations of twenty-first century gaming attempt to bury the complexities of the thirteenth-century Orient."
