As a longtime fan of the "Assassin's Creed" series, and in preparation for my upcoming trip to Egypt, I sat down and played through "Assassin's Creed Origins" (2017). Set during the reign of Cleopatra VII, Origins provides one of the most authentic recreations of Hellenistic Egypt put to media, and I wanted to share my thoughts about what the game does right and the balancing act of fun gameplay versus a historical simulator.
