Dragon Age 2 - Mark of the Assassin Review @ CVG

CVG has a positive review of the Mark of the Assassin DLC for Dragon Age 2, with a score of 8/10:

The set-up is just another excuse to get you out of the city, but what follows is far more than a fetch and carry mission. Along the way you solve puzzles, use your skills in new and interesting ways, and even take part in a not-as-bad-as-it-sounds stealth section.

More importantly, Mark of the Assassin opens up several side-quests that directly link to other members of your party, giving them more game time. This makes the DLC feel more like part of the main tale, as if it was intended from the start, which makes a huge psychological difference.Playing through is like adding an extra four hours to the main game, not heading off at a slightly forced tangent.
