    Pieces come together to create dynamic action: if you try to complete levels as artfully as possible, Russia will be fun – much better, actually, than any of the previous Chronicles. [Issue#207, p.51]

    The same game thrice? That doesn't work and that's a shame. Maybe that's why this game has been released without great announcements.

    AC Chronicles: Russia is the weakest entry of the Chronicles series and surely the most rushed one. Too bad for the nicely done gloomy visuals.

    AC Chronicles: Russia is the last entry in Ubisoft's AC spin-off series. It has no real differences from its predecessors. It is frustrating and starts to get boring after a while.

    Clunky, frustrating and a world away from the series best efforts, Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: Russia limps over the finish line, completing a spin-off trilogy and closing the door on a concept that simply deserved better.

    If it didn't say "Assassin's Creed" on the tin, we wouldn't be completely sure what we've played. Nor were Ubisoft sure where were they heading with this series.

    Assassin's Creed Chronicles: Russia continues the Chronicles series' tradition of stealth mediocrity, offering up a handful of uneventful 2D side-scrolling missions. As usual, the visuals are nice and the mechanics are solid, but assassinating people should never be this tedious.

    As a stealth game Chronicles crosses the thin line between acceptable simplifications and ridiculousness (the AI is awful), its visuals are bland to the point of being tiring and the story is stupid even for an Assassin’s Creed game. Workers of the world, just stay at home and... you know... do something else maybe. [04/2016, p.58]

    The modern setting, the use of color and the introduction of the rifle are great, but the extra difficulty level of Chronicles Russia shows how poorly this spin-off is designed.​

    Even though the setting, graphics and characters are pretty solid, AC Chronicles Russia simply does not feel like an epic adventure. Instead we get frustrating fights and that is again a disappointment.

    Misery and a bonfire of vanity, annoying and frustrating gameplay, zero resourcefulness, plenty of issues, a mistakes and unfriendly controls – this piece can´t be recommended even to the biggest fans of the series.

    Viajamos a la revolución Rusia de manos de un asesino con un gran manejo del rifle. Juego continuista en cuanto a mecánicas respecto a la sagaViajamos a la revolución Rusia de manos de un asesino con un gran manejo del rifle. Juego continuista en cuanto a mecánicas respecto a la saga Chronicles con ciertos matices. En este, manejaremos dos personajes (el asesino y la famosa hija del zar, Anastasia). El juego, ademas de contar con una muy decente ambientación de revolución, añade partes en los que tendrás que usar un rifle de francotirador bien para ayudar a Anastasia, bien para limpiar una zona o bien para acabar con el jefe final. Se añaden otros elementos interesantes como el gancho, util para cortar la luz o tirar una pared. En fin, divertido e historia interesante.… Full Review »
