KotakuStephen TotiloApr 2015An entertaining if perosnality-light translation of Assassin's Creed from open-world 3D to linear 2D.

PC GamerDavid MeiklehamApr 201583/100A stripped down stealth offering that reinvigorates Assassin's Creed by putting attention back on the sneaky stuff.

Game RevolutionPeter ParasMay 20152.5/5 starsStill, I think of how The Devil Inside essentially is a film with no third act. By the same token, ACC: China never really lets the itself soar. Everything feels deliberately muted. And that leads Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China being ultimately just as forgettable as The Devil Inside.

PlayStation LifeStyleMark LabbeApr 20155/10That is kind of the way Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China feels like in general — it starts out okay, but soon becomes dull fairly quickly thanks to a lackluster plot and uninspired gameplay. While there is a lot to explore, especially considering the $10 price tag, the poor enemy AI and almost useless gadgets probably won't have you staying in the game's visually beautiful world for long. Unless you are the world's biggest Assassin's Creed fan, you should probably think long and hard before giving this a go.
