Assassin's Creed Revelations is an amazing third person action adventure role playing game and Ubisoft's fourth entry in the Assassin's Creed franchise. This game has really been updated since its previous two sequels because the graphics have improved, the levels are much more expansive, and the fighting style has improved. Some of the new features which helped the game are the hooked blade, which is a piece of equipment that allows Ezio to travel up walls quicker, the parachute, which was improved significantly since the previous games, the craft bombs, which can be used to avoid detection or run away, and more. The story involves concluding both Altair’s and Ezio’s story as well as helping Desmond get his mind back together. Even though the game doesn’t really focus much on Desmond, Ubisoft did well in concluding the other two assassin’s stories and the narrative was written decently. During the fighting scenes, Assassin’s Creed Revelations did a much better job by improving the slow motion animations and improving the character’s looks as they execute each maneuver. The developers also added a tower defense mini game in the series called Den Defense which occurs whenever the Templar’s awareness of Ezio is too high. This type of gameplay had many issues because there were bad camera angles, it was confusing to work, trying to maneuver people in the right positions was difficult, and it was just an annoying gameplay. Players would generally avoid this gameplay at all cost because it was too difficult and confusing to operate. Uncovering Desmond’s past was another type of gameplay that Ubisoft added. This had the person travel through different puzzles and mazes which were unique but frustrating too. All of these add-ons did expand the game tremendously by building on the narrative and solving dilemmas that were encountered in the previous game. Ubisoft does a great job by having the player interact with the history and architecture of the place Ezio is currently visiting in the game. This game is very unique by having that quality of learning about history while playing a video game. Assassin’s Creed Revelations did a good job enhancing the character, building up the narrative, and concluding the stories of both Ezio and Altair, but adding the tower defense and mazes was a little unnecessary.
