This week, I have been playing Assassin's Creed: Revelations for the Xbox 360. This game continues the adventures of assassin Ezio Auditore as he attempts to stop the Templars from carrying out their plans. The protagonists of this game are the assassins and the antagonists are the Templars. This game is of the action and adventure genre. The core mechanic of this game is running and climbing. Using Ezio's climbing abilities, players are given a wide variety of locations to explore if they so desire. The setting of this game is 16th century Byzantine Empire. This immersion in historic times really gives players a taste of what life was back in the time. It is also amazing how perfectly and smoothly the assassin vs. templar theme is implemented into the historic time. The combat is well implemented so very rarely will something unfair happens. It is also really easy, in fact, due to the counter system, a player will rarely ever die due to enemies. However, it is pretty repetitive, as almost every enemy can be killed easily due to counter strikes, which are very easy to pull of consistently. The pistol and crossbow are also very unbalanced, as they kill almost all enemies in one shot and ammo is really easy to come by. The climbing and traversing is also very smooth. The controls will rarely have players accidently jumping off buildings that they have spent a long time climbing. The way this game rewards players for going on in the story is through frequent plot twists and revelations that appear through cut scenes experienced as the player goes through completing the single player missions. This game overall, although somewhat repetitive, has very fun and exciting game play, coupled with a very engaging story, leaving players entertained throughout the whole single player experience.
