The game is really nice, from the beginning to the end. It is set in the beginning of the renaisance at Italy, from 1470 to 1499. The Ubisoft development team made a really good job remaking the feeling of the era, and each city is a copy of how it was at that time. But enough of that, let's talk about gameplay. It has many kinds of missions, ranging from following missions and assassinating missions to missions which tell you to invade cities with your uncle's mercenary army, which i find very fun. There is also a really big range of weapons, ranging from daggers to hidden firearms. In combination with the weapons, there are lots of assassination techniques you can use to kill your enemy other than direct combat. There's also a huge number of things you have to do before you get a 100% completion, as the game is open world, which means you have access to everything. There are also those glyphs which give you a puzzle which I assure you, will give you a hard time solving, making it even more difficult for you to reach 100% completion. One of the things I find most delighting though, is that you can climb on most buildings on the game, and after that, when you reach the top of ex. the Duomo in Florence, you can find a haystack and perform a "Leop Of Faith", making a really nice fall into the haystack! One of the things that I find dissapointing in the game though, is the difficulty of the AI opponents, it's really easy, I had more deaths from falls than by enemy soldiers! Other than that the game is really nice and I strongly recommend it to you. It's also accessable to most gamers, as it is out for all major platforms.
