Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China is quite a departure from it's siblings due to its side-scrolling perspective. But apart from this change from the core gameplay of the franchise, it does little else.

Critic Reviews for Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China
A stripped down stealth offering that reinvigorates Assassin's Creed by putting attention back on the sneaky stuff.
'Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China' features a unique art style and fun level design, but the stealth-focused gameplay starts to wear thin after a while.
Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China does a lot of the hard stuff well, but can't convey the rush of being an assassin.
Though it sheds many of the series' best elements, Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China has its own charm, and is worth a play for those in search of a simple stealth experience.
This spin-off starts strong, yet loses steam the further you progress
Chronicles: China is the smartest twist on the Assassin's Creed formula yet
It is the most sumptuous and stealth-focused Assassin's Creed yet, but Chronicles: China doesn't assemble its pieces into a gratifying whole.
An entertaining if perosnality-light translation of Assassin's Creed from open-world 3D to linear 2D.
