“It is a pretty good DLC for Black Flag, but this standalone version should not exist. It can be completed in less than 3 hours and for some odd reason costs 15 euros.”

“Very boring game, outdated combat, plays like a demo version of black flag, and making a story anti slavery does not translate to being a deep story, it needs more substance and character development.”
“One of the interesting character, however his back story were not explored enough as well as his connection after drifted away from Assassins. Only buy when sale. 6/10.”

— a player, Steam review · 6 hrs played“I mean its alright, just buy the black flag gold edition and don't get this as a standalone game. You get to play as Edward's buff quartermaster Adewale and it's pretty short, didn't hate nor really like the story. I guess a 6/10?”
