I’ve recently decided to play all the assassins creed games in order, this one of course being the first. There’s a lot of good about this game but also a lot of bad. I found a lot of the gameplay to be outdated, but this is inevitable since the game was released in 2007. The game was very repetitive m, simply doing the same mundane tasks over and over for the duration of the game. I also found the main protagonist to be quite boring, and generic. But all in all, for its time, this is a very good game. I look forward to playing more games in the franchise, and seeing all of the improvements.

As a game, The light in the darkness is very poor, it is slow paced, has poor controls, no voice acting and is overall not a very fun experience.
But it is obvious that the intention of this game was to provide a history lesson to players. I applaud them for this, however this is a video game, and I have provided it with a rating that I believe to be fair.
In conclusion, I do recommend this game especially you are uneducated on the history of this subject, but as a gaming experience it is very lacking.
