Assassin's Creed: Syndicate Reviews - 12 Shocking Critical Reactions You Need To See

7. Brotherhood-Style Recruit-Management Is Back In

"It feels like you€™re chipping away at the enemy, clawing back parts of the city. Similarly, you can stifle the enemy in other ways, like bribing the police or controlling the docks. Admittedly, these gang upgrades are simply purchased through a sterile menu, but they convey the notion of the 19th-century city as a complex organism." - Daniel Krupa, IGN
Talk about your fun minigames, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood centred around trying to amass an Assassin army for yourself - that could then be called in to aid in any fights or encounters. For Syndicate you'll trigger Gang Wars to take over certain sections of the city anyway, so it's a little pointless to call in anyone of a stealthier persuasion, but it's worth pointing out that if you do rank up the children you can recruit from London's streets, they can bring you items directly onto the streets.
