Parents say 45 Kids say Teen, 16 years old Written by Pahrokkal July 23, Well, Let me start off with this. I have been buying and reviewing these kinds of games for years, and I have quite a bit to say about Assassins Creed III.
First off let me say that I own the game and know all of its experiences. Say you came here because your 11 yr old or 12 yr old son is getting on their knees and begging you to let them have the game.
If so, don't listen to all those other reviews. Most of them are dishonest, and exaggerate often. This one is Honest, Clear, and to the point. Assassins Creed III is a very good game with a gripping story.
His mother sadly dies in the fire. Yet this does not compel him to get revenge on the men responsible, he forgives and forgets. Nine years later, the village is rebuilt, and his village is at peace. He is also told to go East and he will find a manor with an African American who will train him. Naturally, he goes there and the man trains him. The mans name is Achilles After complete training, he introduced to the brotherhood and is now an assassin. After that the same redcoats who attacked his village, force them to leave the village, and that's when they went to war.
Violence: This game is very violent, but not over the top. You have a tomahawk that you use to hit and slam enemies to the ground with. You also have a bow that you can use to kill targets at long range with. The two last weapons are a flintlock pistol and a hidden blade. It is a blade that is hidden on your wrist for stealthy kills. There is a good amount of blood in the game, but this can easily be turned off in the options menu, making it a less gory experience.
There is language, but not to much of it, mostly because there isn't a lot of dialogue in the game. Drinking drugs and smoking: There is no Smoking, nor drugs in the game. Although there is drinking. Sometimes you see men and women drinking wine, But this is not a huge deal, you don't see anyone getting drunk or anything. Connor does not kill because of revenge, or hate, he is simply trying to defend his people, Also he is a symbol of standing up for your ways.
All in All, I think this game is a great and enjoyable learning tool for kids 11 to This title contains: Positive Messages. Positive role models. This review So then, just how appropriate might this game be for your children? There is a lot of killing with swords, knives, and other bladed weapons, but there is also much use of pistols and muskets.
The result is a lot of violence with a decent amount of blood which can be turned off in the options. Though there is no gore, some of the deaths in combat can be pretty brutal, such as countless quick knife strikes to the abdomen or a bayonet through the face.
Benjamin Franklin talks to a character at length though the conversation is entirely optional about a book he is writing regarding the benefits of taking an older woman as a sexual lover. The protagonists most notably those in modern day are communicated with by Juno and Minerva, of mythological fame.
In reality, they are remnants of an ancient civilization, left behind in hopes of stopping a repetition of the phenomenon that wiped out their civilization thousands of years ago. The games are generally very well-designed, and experiencing history through the Animus allows for a lot of neat narrative tricks i. If your kid is mature enough, this game is fine at 12 or I'm not saying that will teach you anything, however it is pretty cool.
This title contains: Positive role models. Read my mind. Parent Written by GamerMan1 April 6, A during the Revolutionary War. You start your journey in a slow tutorial, that is not a problem as long as you have patience. When the game actually starts you play as Haythem Kenway, Connor Kenway's ancestor.
Once you get to sequence 3 I believe you become child Connor, sequence 4 Teen Connor, sequence 5 The fully aged assassin. This game is really fun and I would strongly recommend it. I have an 11 year old child who has the game and he loves it!! I watched him play it and it is fine. If your child knows NOT to repeat swears you are home free but if he repeats every swear that he hears, good luck.
This title contains: Ease of Play. Adult Written by BlueDragon April 19, Its a Good Game It is a very good game, that has a lot of history teaching behind it.
You do play as an assassin but his goals are not killing innocent people, more of killing important people in the British Army during the American Revolution.
There is little swearing, as it takes place in a time when people had more decency than to talk with profanity. There is alcohol and smoking, but its visible in numerous taverns and inns in the game's world. The violence is visible in the many battle scenes in the game. I say anyone under 12 shouldn't play. Parent of a year-old Written by John Locke April 6, Assassin's Creed review I personally think that it depends on your child.
Most parents if they knew all about the game would let their 11 year old play this game. It would only be otherwise if your the type of parent that is really overprotective.
With all due respect for those people, I think that kids wont do bad stuff just because they see it. Plus the main character is not a bad role model, just because he has to kill people doesn't mean he is bad. Are all the veterans in the world bad? Video games don't "rot the brain" in fact this game is about the revolutionary war it could teach your child about America's rich history.
So what if this game is a little violent, you can turn blood off. So what if it swears a little bit, any 8 year old can handle that. I have played the game thoroughly and there may be a reference to sex, but that is it.
The people who made the rating had to put that in there because they would be lying even if it is just one reference. Personally I would let my 9 year old play it, but I know other parents are different so I would say 11 or up. Parent of a year-old Written by Paws February 7, Common Sense is Wrong This game is not only a way to engage kids in history but it also sends a message of perseverance.
