GAMEPLAY
The gameplay remain the same throughout the game. It actually gets quite repetitive, and boring after a while. The only thing that needs to be done is the gather information, view points, and kill the target. That is pretty much the whole game.
The story is what keeps the game going and cover the fact that the game is repetitive. The gameworld is as beautiful as ever. Each city has its own special feeling, and can be distinguished from other cities. Each cities has flags that needs to be gathered. I, personally, think that this gathering mission is not as fun as everyone says. The fact that some of the achievement can only be gained to gain the score is annoying.
DESIGN
The gameworld is what shines in Assassin's creed. The gameworld is important to the game because the game tries to give the player the most realistic way of showing the world and how an assassin work. The only way to do that is force the player to explore a whole new city and the have them gather information about there target within the city. At the same time, the player knows the city a lot better than normal. By exploring the gameworld, the player is experiencing a whole new experience.
Social Stealth is the new way of playing a stealth game. The player gets to blend in with the crows and the guards wouldn't notice them. The battle system is, however, lacking of complexity. One button does everything from attacking to countering. Most of the time, countering is the best way to kill the enemy and I mostly used that move to win fights against the enemy. I like the combat system, but I just wished that it could be a little more complex.

Summary
The game consist of an assassin in the crusading era. The assassin is tasked in killing a list of people. In order to assassinate them, the player needs to go through all the view points to get a bird eye view of the city and gather information on the target in order to chose the best path in killing the target.
GAMEPLAY
The story consist of an assassin in the crusading era, but that is only the surface of the game. The game is actually about a descendant of the actual assassin who is put in a machine to read his memory in order to retrieve an artifact. The story is interesting to the point that will want to keep me playing. The characters all have a mysterious background that is slowly explored. The characters however is not the center of the game. The gameworld is the best aspect of the game in which that the player must navigate through the city in order to find information and to kill its target.
Social Stealth is the new feature of the game in which the player can blend in with the crowd to evade capture. This idea is innovative because in past game the only way to hide is to literally hide somewhere dark. Social stealth allows the player to be creative in terms of escaping, and blending in is not as easy as one may think because the AI is smart when it comes to detecting the player. The control is strange as in each button controls each body part. For example, to climb a wall, the player needs to press the legs button in order to climb, while grabbing a bad guy, the player need to press the arm button.
