Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India review

The Assassin’s Creed Chronicles games are a spin-off series to the yearly AAA games on consoles and PC and as such, offer gameplay in the same world and with similar themes, only in a 2.5D viewpoint where you sneak and kill your way through the levels collecting things around the Animus and playing through the story.

Assassins Creed Syndicate review

I’ve been looking forward to Assassins Creed Syndicate because not only is it set in my home town, it’s sure to be less boring than the last game.

Assassins Creed 3 review

Assassin’s Creed 3 is the first true sequel since Assassin’s Creed 2 and if you think it’s out a bit too soon after Revelations don’t panic, it’s actually been in development for a number of years shared between two of Ubisoft’s production houses.

You’ll be somewhat...
