Prince of Persia Get it now!


I liked this game quite a bit. It's not particularly hard or in-depth. In it, you just bop from place to place, with some platforming and macguffin hunting (here, it's light seeds), mixed with some combat sequences.

The platforming is quite good. The levels are on a large scale and there are various paths from where you are to where you need to go. It's all well designed and fun. The macguffin hunting after you clear out an area is actually quite fun too. The combat is actually the most intense part of the game, built around a rhythmic combat system based on attacks and parries.

The biggest thing of note here is that you don't die. Nope, Elika bails you out every time. Because of this, it turns the game into a relaxing sprawl across beautiful environments. Maybe it's not what people hoped for, but for what it is, it's well done. Get more detail about Prince of Persia.
