We may not be getting a new Assassin’s Creed game this year, but that doesn’t mean the franchise will be entirely dormant in this period. Last year, Ubisoft kickstarted a series of sidescrolling platformers in the franchise, which they labelled Assassin’s Creed Chronicles. The very first game in this trilogy launched in 2015, and took players to China. Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India is the second game in the franchise, and, as the name suggests, takes players to the long requested setting of Colonial India.
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India is not a large game. Getting 100% in the game is not a long term prospect- just completing the story takes an even lesser amount of time. It’s an easy enough proposition, and it’s not going to get you lost or unmoored like some of the bigger games last year might have. Still, though, if you need any help with the process, we’re here for you- in this guide, we will show you how you can unlock some of the Achievements/Trophies, and fixes to any errors or bugs you may encounter along the way (it wouldn’t be an Assassin’s Creed game if it did not have those, would it?).
ACHIEVEMENTS AND TROPHY GUIDE:
Of course, there are Achievements and Trophies in Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India, and any playthrough of the game would need to get all of them to be considered a 100% completion run. Don’t worry, though, we’ve got you covered- here’s a full Achievement guide for you. Mostly, we’ve just listed what you need to do to get the Achievements in question, though in the case of some really difficult ones, we’ve also included a video for you.

BUGS AND ERRORS FIXES:
While Chronicles: India is not as famously buggy as Unity was, it still has its own fair share of bugs and glitches. PC players are probably going to be on the receiving end of this- but never fear, we’re here to help you out with any problems you may run into.
First, make sure your computer can actually run the game, and that it can run it properly (spoiler alert: it almost certainly can). As always, remember that these are just suggestions to help you to get your game running- we cannot guarantee that these suggestions will work, and we certainly recommend some common sense and judgement in doing anything to your computer. If you are not comfortable with a suggested tip or hint, it may be best to not try it. A $15 game not running is probably better than you wrecking your PC. Please be advised that the following methods are to be used at the sole discretion of the platform owner. GamingBolt or its staff members take no responsibility for problems that may arise or issues that may occur from trying the below. Always remember that official support is always the best support.

Error 1: The game has stopped working
- Check that all your drivers are up to date; if they are not, please update all drivers. If they are, proceed to the next step.
- Open up the Control Panel, and go to ‘System’ under ‘System Maintenance.’
- Select Advanced System Settings.
- In the System Properties window, select the Preferences tab.
- Select Data Execution Program, and and then Turn On DEP For All Programs And Services Except Those I select.
- Use Browse to locate any programs that may have stopped working, and add it to the Exceptions list. Click Apply.
- The game should now run without issues.
Error 2: Changing Keyboard Controls
Assassin’s Creed Chronicles: India‘s keyboard controls are, frankly, a joke. The game practically forces you to play with a controller because of how bad the keyboard controls are. That said, if you don’t have a controller, or don’t want to plug it in to play Chronicles: India with, it is in fact possible to change the keyboard controls.
- Go to C:Files>Steam>Steamapps>common” and find “BaseInput.ini.” Make any and all changes here.
Error 3: Low Framerate and Lag
A fix for this problem has been discovered, but so far, it’s only for Nvidia users.
- If you are a laptop user, first make sure you are running the game off of the discrete graphics card, not the integrated one. If you are not a laptop user/if you have a proper gaming desktop, proceed to the next step.
- Right click desktop->Nvidia control panel->Manage 3d settings->Program settings-> and select Switch power management mode. You should change the option to “Prefer maximum performance”.
Error 4: Can’t Connect To Uplay
This is really a blessing and a boon, because Uplay sucks. But hey, if connecting to it is what you want, who are we to judge you? Whatever gets your motor running, man.
- Uninstall and re-install the game- this will replace the game’s files with the latest version from the Ubisoft servers, which theoretically should help.
- If it didn’t help, go to to C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc and delete the files named as “hosts.” Make sure your game is backed up before you do something like this.
