A good game to pass the time when you have nothing to do. In this fantastic sandbox accompanied by a beautiful soundtrack the player can choose various factions where over time he can expand, having along the way allies and enemies, among others, where in the end there are several ways to win the game.

This was a great iteration of the series that had a few fundamental things that needed to be addressed. In this, its original form, it was a very, very good, but not quite great game. Subsequent DLC turned it into a masterpiece, by far the best in this storied series. I put hundreds of hours into this game. Get the complete edition and say goodbye to the real world for a while. (Venice ftw!)
