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.

Not recommend

The control is partly immature: Running freely to escape is not possible because the control does not react fast enough. In addition, narrow alleys and corners must be avoided, because the character quickly runs against the wall and holds on to it while the enemies thrash on you. The last fight against de Sadre (or something) is disproportionately difficult. While a good dozen knights stand around you, many attacks are miserably blocked by them, although you block, and parry in time - this rarely succeeds. And if you cancel the game - close the game completely - you have to start all over again and you can't stop the dialogue, you have to listen to all the talk again. That's one of the worst: you know what they're saying and you have to listen to the simple talk again. And every mission in the cities involves the same thing: storming out, eavesdropping, stealing, boring to extremely pointlessly complicated challenges. And most of the main targets are simply captured by partisans, who are then assassinated. All in all, the game runs stable, the graphics are pretty good. But the design is quite monotonous. The music again very appropriate.

Average at best

The game follows Altair, an assassin, who is stripped from his rank and has to do highly repetitive tasks over and over again until, 20 hours later, he enters an highly underwhelming final arc by which 90% of the people should've lost their interest in this overrated piece of software altogether. It's not good, it's not old - so why would you buy it?

Disappointing

Despite some great SF ideas, the story is in fact very lame. Very frustrating as it could have easily been one of the best scenario ever. But templars being evil and Assassins being the good guys, seriously ? Very frustrating to see such a rich historical material being completely destroyed despite the studio claims of its international story team of reviwers that is supposed to give some serious credits. In this episode, missions are very repetitive and can become fast very boring. Glad I have experienced. The only cool feature is the architecture of the cities. It's always great to climb on those awesome buildings and have a look of the view. Sure it's beautiful, but sadly it is not enough.

Pretty, but not a game

Works as a sight-seeing simulation but lucks meaningful gameplay. Dumbed down and suffering from consol-itys. No skill involved. Navigating the environment is unsatisfying— you only get to select the direction, not how to get there. The computer does all the cool moving, jumping, and climbing for you. Combat is a one button affair: keep tapping the one button and the computer picks the appropriate action for you: slash, parry, finishing move, turn to face next target. Enemies attack one at a time, regardless of their number, so you’re never in any danger. As has been pointed out, the only way to lose is to step away from the computer. Stars for environment and animations, ie artwork and not gameplay.
