Assassin's Creed Game Guide

Introduction

Welcome to Lunabean's Assassin's Creed Walkthrough and Strategy Guide for the Xbox 360 and PS3. This walkthrough was written based upon the Xbox 360 version of the game. In most cases buttons are referred to generically and the on-screen instructions are very comprehensive, so just pay attention.

Animus Tutorial

The game begins with a bit of a surprise. I won't ruin anything for you at this point, so just let the game play and before long you'll be in a tutorial. Here's what you need to come away with:

Synchronization Meter - This is the health meter in the game. It refers to how connected you are at any given time to Altair's memory. If it goes down to nothing you'll start over from the last save point. You build up the meter by completing objectives, staying anonymous, or performing successful attacks. The meter goes down if you kill an innocent, falling from too high, or are hit with an attack.

One advantage of having the Synchronization Meter (from here on out, the Sync Meter) full is that you can utilize Eagle Eye View (see below). This is an enhanced first person perspective which colors the people around you based on their intentions.

First Person - While standing still use the "Head" button to enter into first person view in order to survey your surroundings. If anything feels weird to you at this point, namely the Y-Axis or X-Axis configuration, enter into the Pause Menu >> Options >> Controls. Here you can adjust common control elements to your liking.

Gentle Push - Press and hold the "Gentle Push" button as you walk through the crowd. Doing this will allow you to pass without disturbing them. Walk into the marker.

High/Low Profile - Low Profile actions are socially acceptable. High Profile actions are more likely to draw attention. Press and hold the "High Profile" button to see how the Context Buttons in the upper right corner of the screen change.

Grab and Throw - One such High Profile action is to grab and throw an enemy. While holding down the "High Profile" button, approach a person, press and hold the "Grab" button and then push the Left Control Stick in the direction you want to toss the person. In this case, throw him into the marker.

Sprinting - Press and hold the "High Profile" button and then press and hold the "Sprint" button. Push the Left Control Stick in the direction you want to sprint. Pretty basic.

Social Status Icon - The Status Icon appears to the left of the Sync Meter. If an enemy soldier is Unaware or Suspicious of you, you'll see white lines with a yellow center. If the soldier is Informed (eg, sees a dead body or a violent act) then you'll see the yellow dot turn to a red dot. After you Stealth Assassinate the soldier, the soldier who discovers the body will demonstrate this for you.

The game tells you to make yourself known to the soldier. Do so by running into him. You'll see the Status Icon change to a full-on red indicator. This is Exposed Status.

You'll now need to drop that Exposed Status to something more acceptable.

Break the line of sight by climbing the ladder. You'll gain Yellow, or Unseen status.

Hop into the roof garden (the square structure) and you'll gain Blue, or Vanishing status. This indicates that soldiers are still looking for you, but that you are hidden.

Wait until the soldier gives up and leaves to gain Green, or Vanished status.

Hop out from the roof garden and you'll gain White, or Anonymous status. Doing this will also fill your Sync Meter.

Blending - When attempting to escape from an Informed soldier you must first break the line of sight. Then, you'll want to Blend in, or hide. There are four places that you can hide: Empty place on a bench between two people; haystacks; roof gardens; and amongst scholars.

To blend in as a Scholar, press and hold the "Blend" button as you walk. Doing this allows you to pass through enemy soldiers.

Lock On - To lock onto any person, press and release the "Lock On" button. You'll see a tiny white triangle appear above the head of the person to whom you're locked on.

Stealth Assassination - While Locked On to an enemy, press Up on the D-Pad to select your Blade. Walk up to an Unaware enemy and press the "Attack" button to perform the kill.

Eagle Vision - As mentioned above, when your Sync Meter is full you can enter into Eagle Vision by pressing the "Eagle Vision" button while standing still. This is an enhanced first person view which allows you to detect the intentions of those around you. Their intentions are color-coded.

White = Information
Yellow = Assassination Target
Red = Soldier
Blue = Allies
