Play it for the story before playing other AC games

not terrible, fun to play as Ezio and interesting location

very fun, introduced lots of mechanics that black flag perfected, DLC very different and cool

Best AC game. Made sea shanties cool.

Play if you really want to play the whole series

story and gameplay fine but not particularly standout

Really cool story, interesting fear/madness themes

pretty fun, similar to city, not in main trilogy so story slightly less compelling

good game, misses out on open world as it was the first in the trilogy

2016

Excellent stealth game, with choice+consequences constantly present throughout every mission with how you complete them (lethal vs non lethal)
