Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India

A few months ago I wrote about getting the first Assassin’s Creed Chronicles game, China, and although I was quite enjoying the start, I got a bit sidetracked at the time and forgot to get back to it. This past weekend I finally remembered to get back to it, and found myself playing through the entire thing in two sessions. In fact, I had such a great time with it that I didn’t want to stop, and so picked up the set that includes the two sequels, India and Russia, and so far India is just as fun and engrossing as China (although I did prefer the calligraphy-inspired art in the latter). I’m just so in love with the 2D stealth gameplay – this for me is way more fun than the regular Assassin’s Creed games – and it makes me wish they’d just keep making these with even more country settings. Yes, Mark of the Ninja did this kind of thing first, and although that is a really great game, I prefer the country-flavor and setting of these Chronicles game.
