Assassins Creed 4: Black Flag follows the life of the pirate Edward Kenway during the 18th century Caribbean during the Golden Age of Piracy. If the name "Kenway" sounds familiar to you, that is because Edward is the Grandfather of Connor Kenway from Assassins Creed 3.
The game play is nothing short of amazing! Just like the previous games you are a assassin running around, carrying out missions, assassinating targets but more refined. As always there are enough collectables to keep you busy for hours.
one of the new features I LOVE is you have a ship called the Jackdaw! it is so much fun to sail around the Caribbean while getting in to ship battles, upgrading your ship, find crew to help. As you sail around your crew will sing! This is so incredibly catchy and lead you to want to collect all of them for new songs you can learn to sing along too.
Overall Assassins Creed 4 is the best AC game so far and that is saying a lot for me as I looooved the AC2 Trilogy I would highly recommend it for any person who is a gamer. many hours of fun and adventure as well as a engaging story.
