Uplay seems to be offline right now, I presume as a result of interest in this giveaway.

I'm going to go ahead and assume I'll never need to buy another AssCreed game... they just keep giving them all away for free. Of course, I never got further than halfway through the first one. Pretty sure I'll never catch up with the other sixteen.

just for some necessary clarification here, these titles are:
Discovery Tour: Ancient Egypt

Ancient Egypt transformed into a living museum.

The Discovery Tour allows you to roam freely in the beautiful world of Ptolemaic Egypt. Learn more about its life, habits and customs by yourself, or let historians and Egyptologists guide you on one of the 75 available historical tours they have curated.


Discovery Tour: Ancient Greece

Experience the world of Classical Greece as a living museum.

Travel throughout 29 regions and uncover hundreds of stations with tours on 5 different themes: philosophy, famous cities, daily life, war and myths to learn more about history of Ancient Greece.
these reuse the engines of AssCreed:Origins and AssCreed:Odyssey for these sorta immersive history :happy-wavemulticolor: Edutainment®™ :happy-wavemulticolor: titles
