Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles (Nintendo DS) Review



 Assassin's Creed Altair's ChroniclesAssassin's Creed II: DiscoveryAssassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed for Nintendo DS provides an enjoyable combination of platform and combat gaming. A review at Gamespot it has been noted to have pretty visual design and good music. I totally agree :)

Then the bad side of the review was that the platforming is awkward due to clunky camera angles and control issues. The controls feel awkward for me. Like in the beginning of the game, my health points got deducted because while I was feeling for the controls, Altair fell of the building and hurt himself. This was over the planks where you have to press R of the Nintento DS while pressing forward. Then on plain ground you have to press R again and forward to walk normally or else A would be running and B for jumping.

The review added that Altair is reduced to a generic hero in ancient garb, which may be fine for Assassin's Creed fans but won't be of much interest to those new to this game universe.In the game, Altair is dressed in white while the rest of the characters are mostly in dark garb. Oh my, if it was real Altair could easily be picked out of the crowd. I guess the white garb was to allow ease on the player to see where Altair is and help with the awkward control.

Aside from that. there are mini games with the touch screen. The first one is pickpocketing. In this mini game, you are to drag the key into the opening. Altair is pickpocketing a merchant because the gate was closed and Altair needs to get in and you to continue the game. The seen in below.

Although, Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles isn't as good as the console versions, it is still a fun game. Get your Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles in Amazon or download Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chornicles for demo.
