This game was a little easier than I thought it was going to be. You just follow the clues or hints on the map and do your tasks as an assassin. Escaping seemed too easy though. You can run 3 feet away behind a wall or bench, on a roof, or between people, and you're free... The battles are not hard from what I've seen so far. And once you've completed the biggest part of your mission assassinating someone and the town goes on alert, you can just "blend" in and walk very slowly to escape. I think they made it too easy. Overall entertaining but I was really playing this to get to the game I hear is even better, Assassin's Creed 2

• Great Game
• Fun

Assassin’s Creed is the next-gen game developed by Ubisoft Montreal that will redefine the action genre. While other games claim to be next-gen with impressive graphics and physics, Assassin’s Creed merges technology, game design, theme, and emotions into a world where you instigate chaos and become a vulnerable, yet powerful, agent of change.

The setting is 1191 AD. The Third Crusade is tearing the Holy Land apart. You, Altair, intend to stop the hostilities by suppressing both sides of the conflict.

You are an Assassin, a warrior shrouded in secrecy and feared for your ruthlessness. Your actions can throw your immediate environment into chaos, and your existence will shape events during this pivotal moment in history.

Love the story, enjoyed the game - Luis Alvarez Cabreja -
While it's a bit tedious is also a lot of fun to do all does building climbing and for the price I think it's worth it for anyone who is willing to get into the Assassin's creed lore. The story is really good and intriguing, in the vein of 'lost', it leaves you with a lot of questions that are to be answered in the following games.

Love it - FreddyCruze.ni -
For me it is a 4 stars game. Fun, but I find it a bit short of missions, namely the nine missions are the same thing and although it is the object of the game I think it could add more points in each mission. Highlight the quality of the architecture of cities, that's wonderful. Altair needs more weapons.

But to be the I of the series is fine. I'm playing the second and waiting for November 3rd.
