Description
Assassin’s Creed® is a game that redefined the action-adventure genre. With photo-realistic graphics, an advanced physics model, and a nearly fanatical attention to detail, this title was able to begin a new chapter in gaming history. However, the excellent technical aspects are only half of the reason why it became so popular; the other half is the story.

While you technically play the game as Desmond Miles, the main focus of the game takes place elsewhere. The year is 1191: Jerusalem, the middle of the Third Crusade. You are a member of a mysterious order of assassins where you have trained your whole life to do one thing and one thing only – to kill. The recently growing influence of the Order of the Knights Templar disturbs the delicate balance of power in the region and therefore directly threatens The Brotherhood. The clash of the two most powerful organizations in Jerusalem at the time has the most unexpected consequences and triggers devastating events that threaten the world itself, and you – Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad – are in the middle of all this.
  • Well-constructed story that will pleasantly surprise you many times along the way.
  • Impressive level of interaction with the environment – crowds react to what you do and act accordingly.
  • Open world gameplay lets you to decide how and when to achieve objectives, where to go, and gives you nearly complete freedom to get there.

The first but not the best

Strengths Originality and Ambition At its release, Assassin’s Creed stood out for its daring narrative architecture: an interplay of historical Crusader‑era Middle East landscapes with a subtle but compelling sci‑fi underpinning via Abstergo’s Animus device. This duality between past and future lent the game a distinctive gravitas, setting it apart from contemporaries in the stealth‑action genre. Historical Atmosphere The game's representation of Medieval Jerusalem, Acre, and Damascus felt surprisingly immersive. Architectural details, ambient crowds, and period‑appropriate motifs combined to evoke a believable world that transported the player back to the Third Crusade. Weaknesses Fragmented Open World One of the more jarring aspects is how “open” the world feels when overhead transitions—loading screens—routinely break immersion. Far from the seamless cityscape promised, the segmented loading boundaries pull you out of the narrative flow and serve as unwelcome reminders of technical constraints. Repetitive Structure The core loop—assassination missions, eavesdropping, tailing targets—over time becomes formulaic. Though mechanically competent, the gameplay lacks variety, and the stamina drain becomes noticeable unless you’re particularly enraptured by the setting. In later entries, Ubisoft judiciously diversified objectives, injected side‑activities, and refined pacing—elements missing here, making this early offering feel raw and earnest rather than polished. Final Thoughts As a foundational entry, Assassin’s Creed is commendable for its bold conceptual framework and period authenticity. It clearly laid the groundwork for something greater. Yet, its rough edges—most notably the stuttering world transitions and mission monotony—diminish enjoyment and limit replay value.

Assassin's Creed 1 D's cut on GOG

Good as i remember but with more context than the past. As this GOG version still have some issue in downloading game file, that can be fix by turn off firewall and antivirus druing download. find some comunity patch would help fix someting if you have one, Still it DRMfree so it nice. As AC1 if you like sci-fi, history fiction and no ploblem with slow progression and slow climb sometime, i'm think you be fine if you new fan still recomend AC1, As old fan i'm play for nostalgic.
