Assassin's Creed creator Patrice Désilets' new and witchy 1666: Amsterdam demo raises more questions than answers

Assassin's Creed creator Patrice Désilets' new and witchy 1666: Amsterdam demo raises more questions than answers

Few games have a history as turbulent as that of 1666: Amsterdam. This is the project Patrice Désilets - the founding director of the Assassin's Creed series - fought Ubisoft for. It was the project that was in development there in some form 13 years ago, until Ubisoft decided to shelve 1666 - as it was known then - and suspend Désilets, prompting a legal battle that he eventually won three years later. Désilets has wanted to make this game for a long time.

"Pay the gravity tax": In crushing strategy game Asema, your factories will become a vortex if they grow too vast

"Pay the gravity tax": In crushing strategy game Asema, your factories will become a vortex if they grow too vast

I like a factory simulation that fervently embraces the basic evilness of factory sims, these games about wrapping a smoking, clanking straitjacket around a realm of organic colours and unsuspecting resource deposits.

"There may be an infinite amount of your kind in the cosmos, older than stellar dust. But for you, the only space that matters is the o...
