It's a pity that this aspect hasn't been developed more for a game of this type, which requires a (relatively powerful) device to be functional.Īssassin's Creed Pirates is a huge success. Graphically, Assassin's Creed Pirates is a good quality product without dazzling us. The music is epic and makes you want to drink rum straight from the barrel, while the overall aesthetic is very successful. The home menu of the application sets the tone: Assassin's Creed Pirates is a big budget game and offers content that's up to the task.

This spoils the feeling of freedom that any seafarer should be entitled to. However, we think it's a shame that by trying to offer us a (rather uninteresting) plot, the game obliges us to follow a very long tutorial throughout the first part. You do everything using the touch screen and there are plenty of details that give the game substance: managing the sails, controlling the helm, and tactical phases where you have to move out of enemy ships' field of vision. The different phases of the game (map moves, control of the vessel, and naval battles) dovetail perfectly with each other, and each offers its own particular gameplay. Nowadays this is rarity that can't be ignored!Īssassin's Creed Pirates boasts all the best features of the series on mobile. It's particularly pleasing to note that Assassin's Creed Pirates doesn't offer an optional in-app purchases: once you've paid for the application on the Google Play Store, you actually have the entire contents without having to pay additional fees.

The progression system in the game is very well thought out and you'll take great pleasure in slowly developing your small band of pirates. If you've always dreamed of going to sea, then Assassin's Creed Pirates is for you! Your task will be to lead your ship, plunder merchant ships, and confront other pirates with questionable intentions. Rather than trying to ape the Assassin's Creed IV console experience, Pirates focuses on its maritime aspect.
