The second part of the Kenway Saga, Black Flag was created almost entirely around the universally praised naval warfare gameplay mechanic that was introduced in Assassin’s Creed III. Yet the game was praised for its gorgeous graphics and compelling co-lead Evie, who still stands as one of the best female characters in any Assassin’s Creed game.

In addition, critics complained of the tedious battle mechanics and emphasis on Jacob rather than his more likable sibling, which caused the game to feel more difficult and long than it actually was. Syndicate had a tough task of repairing the ill will left in the wake of Unity’s bug-ridden release in 2015, which had soured many with its revamped parkour and dense crowds filled with glitchy NPCs. Along the way, they encounter such historical figures as Charles Darwin, Alexander Graham Bell, and Queen Victoria before taking on the main’s villain, Crawford Starrick, in the bowels of Buckingham Palace. As either Jacob or his twin sister Evie Frye, the player is tasked with taking down the Templar Order in 1860s Victorian-era England. Released after the critically derided Assassin’s Creed: Unity, Syndicate is the first AC game to include two playable protagonists.
