    Hell, I liked it. Probably because it's my first assassin game in chonicles' series or because I am Russian...But the game was totally worth it.

    What is this? It isnt AC...It is something, that Deadpool killed with shotgun. Twice. Terrible gameplay and really ugly graphic. It is game maybe for mobile/tablets. But this? This is **** that could have 0,99 euro as prize.

    If you love AC series, ignore it. Really. Bugs everywhere, boring missions, terrible AI and graphic from 2005. And story? Where, i cant find it.

    Decepcionado. Pqp ! Mas q porra eh essa que fizeram ? Da vontade de encontrar pessoalmente e meter uma tapaça na cara. Fazendo jogadores de palhaço e chamando isso de Assassins Creed.

    Assassins Creed Chronicles Russia
    Trial and Error Garbage
    Its no secret that I’m an assassins creed fan boy, and its also no secret that am a #AssassinsCreedChroniclesHater Don’t get me wrong, this is a challenging and beautiful series, but its an awful unfun series that I hope Ubisoft never brings back. China probably my favorite, a nice tie to the ac story with the box, then we go to    Assassins Creed Chronicles Russia

    Its no secret that I’m an assassins creed fan boy, and its also no secret that am a #AssassinsCreedChroniclesHater Don’t get me wrong, this is a challenging and beautiful series, but its an awful unfun series that I hope Ubisoft never brings back.
    China probably my favorite, a nice tie to the ac story with the box, then we go to India much more color, we get a love story and a decently enjoyable campaign… but here in Russia we do go back to the story of the box and a mystery assassin that I’m not going to spoil as you’re running through this game as two characters, Nikolai and Anastasia in 1918
    But the campaign you’re given here is brutally panful and unnecessarily difficult and just completely unfun..if you want an in depth idea of the mechanics of this game go back and watch the china and india reviews.. those are the only 2 games in this series even remotely worth suffering through anyway..
    but basically this is the stealthiest campaign in the trilogy..
    Nikolai is a trained rugged russian assassin but from bullets to muy tai elbow strikes.. it doesn’t matter.. you die in one hut yet enemies are unfairly balanced to take multiple blows and not even flinch…
    you do have a rifle with you which I’m guessing is the reason its so easy for you to die.. this is the most powerful tool in the trilogy.. you also have smoke bombs and the ability to whistle… as well as a grappling thing to mess with electricity.. no helix powers though.. those belong to Anastasia who can dissolve enemies instantly as well as dash through hiding spots..
    what makes this game so painful this time around is that this 3rd game in the trilogy is essentially a collection of every bad thing in assassins creed all in one convenient package
    tons of insta fail missions where if youre spotted youre set back to a checkpoint, and even if the mission doesn’t make this a stipulation it doesn’t matter.. enemies have automatic rifles and extreme accuracy, its practically isntadeath unless you get a lucky dodge….
    worse is there are missions where youre tasked to clear a room or an entire train of enemies with again not taking one single hit or being spotted once…
    they also somehow ruined the only good thing this series had going for it..
    the runner bits.. full of action and excitement.. its turned into trial and error guess work that requires precise timing, 0 room for error, and absolutely no indication or direction on whats coming next…
    so its and endless loop of die and try again…
    I know as an assassins creed fan youre going to see the box again and just have to see the story out.. youre going to torture yourself by making you go through this painful campaign, but I have good news.. we have youtube.
    watch the story there.
    forget the like 3 trophies you get for completing this garbage

    No way to complete it without dying a hundred times! Totally unforgiving. Missions completed in specific ways, losing multiple times until you happen to find the only way to beat it. Jumping is faster than running? You run you lose you run jumping you are almost on time (by milliseconds)! Visuals and audio far worse than China and India. Garbage scenario.

    Es un juego obviamente muy distinto a los clásicos AC (Open World). La verdad que no se dejen llevar por quienes ponen el rating comparándolos con los juegos de la saga. Los 3 AC Chronicles (China, India, Rusia) se deben ver como juegos totalmente distintos, y como una historia continua entre ellos 3.

Los 3 AC Chronicles (China, India, Rusia) se deben ver como juegos totalmente distintos, y como una historia continua entre ellos 3. Dicho eso, no jugaba juegos de plataforma desde PS1, y la verdad que es que son una obra maestra para el género, si te gustan los juegos de plataforma y sigilo, esto es perfecto. Valoración real sería 8, ya que podrían ser mas largos, pero como hay muchas críticas malas (basadas en la comparación de la saga completa), le pongo un 10.… Expand

    Glitchy and too difficult, this makes a disappointing end to a series that never found its footing. [Apr 2016, p.75]

    There are plenty of ideas here, it's just a shame it's so frustrating to get to the good bits. [Apr 2016, p.89]

    The well written and quite interesting story never really takes off and on top of that we get a poor level design with intense "trial and error". The third part of the "Chronicles" trilogy hasn't done anything to escape the grim fate of its predecessors.
