Jack Baudoin | Columnist There are two things I have a deep love for: history and video games. Thankfully, there is a series with over 12 entries that beautifully mesh these together: Assassin’s Creed. This series follows the Assassins, an underground group throughout history that has fought to protect humanity’s free will all over the globe. Players are able to experience many different periods and locations in human history including renaissance Italy, ancient Egypt and Greece, the American and French Revolutions. The player interacts with important people from these eras and also participates in historical events. Each game includes database entries on these as well as the architecture, factions, activities of that specific part of history. The time periods and events were extensively researched by the developers, which can be seen when exploring the game world or partaking in the story.
