Assassin's Creed

2007

Action, Adventure

The game centers around the use of a machine dubbed the "Animus", which allows its user to view the genetic memories of their ancestors, centering around the protagonist, a bartender named Desmond Miles. As Desmond relives the memories of one of his ancestors, the Assassin Altaïr who lived in the Holy Land during the 3rd Crusade, details of a battle between two ancient sects - the Knights Templar and the Assassin Order - emerge as both scour for an artifact.

I'd travel back in time to stop this game before I'd football baby Hitler through a window. It gets SO BAD.

It suffers from the same issues as ACII, but is much more barebones by comparison. Like most AC games, the setting and premise are cool but all of the mechanics it utilizes are poorly designed and the general structure of the game is boring as hell. the first AC is even worse because at least ACII had a likable protagonist, this game doesn't even have that.

While it probably had the best story in the series, it's gameplay is monontous and almost unplayable if you've played any of the other titles in the series. It plays more like a rough-around-the-edges tech demo than the highly refined parkour mechanics of its sequels.

A great concept and a good looking game. I'm a sucker for anything time travel related. The mechanics worked well enough but the game play was so repetitive that I lost interest and didn't complete the game (the only one in the series I failed to finish) A good stepping stone for the series, but all future games would easily dwarf this one.

One of a handful of games that I tried to play on PC before realizing my computer's gaming ability sucked ass through a bendy straw. Playing it on console after the fact revealed I wasn't missing much
