Product Description:


Prince Of Persia is an update of the world-renowned game -- taking one of the all-time great games into the new century. It has the same themes&gameplay thatmade it such a hit, with all-new graphics and modern features for a brand new classic!

Customer Reviews:


Yes, it wakes up some nice memories, 2008-08-24
I got this one just because I didn't know what to play and it got good reviews and grades. It deserves all the good reviews it got!

Description:

This is a game that combines 3d platform, 3d fighting and logical puzzle 3d gaming. You have probably seen all tricks that prince does in other games for PS2, PC or XBoX but this game's 2D prequels ( we played them some 15 years ago , no? ) were legends at the time they were published, so I decided to see what's old and what's new. Basically, you got everything you had in old PoP , just in 3d and some more.

Gameplay is simple to describe: you solve puzzles, jump and run and avoid traps and then there are some battles in case you got bored. Battles are something I dislike: you have to be fast, know how to defeat which enemy class and sometimes have to do moves which are difficult with keyboard and mouse. You will often be cornered by , like, 4 monsters and there is not much hope there.

GOOD: Nice translation of 2D arcade adventure into 3D world, nice graphics, nice puzzles. At each save point, you get hint for next level, in form of FMV (they call it vision) and this is good for new players. REAL LOW VIOLENCE LEVEL.

BAD: Camera is really not that good, not even mediocre. Battles take too much time and are frustrating and luck dependent. Or I should get me Devil May Cry and practice reflexes? For some people, low violence level could be listed here instead in GOOD.

GENERAL NO SPOILER ADVICE: play game between two or three save points daily , otherwise you can forget what happens. Use replay vision. Block a lot in the fight, use dagger ('E' key). Use 'Q' to see complete building you are in if you have doubts about where to go.

IMPRESSIONS AFTER BEATING THE GAME:
Game is cool and it is good if you don't read solutions to puzzles, it would be ridiculously short.


ADVICE ABOUT BATTLES:
Point is to see if enemy falls when you do off the wall torpedo attack (towards wall+jump+attack button right after ) OR when you do jump over enemy attack (toward enemy+jump+attack twice). Try to find water near place where you fight and you really can replenish stamina. And yes, fight w princess in closed circle near the end is more difficult than boss fight.

Get it, and then 'Beyond Good and Evil' , there are not too many action games for PC. PRINCE IS GAME FOR ALL AGES, there is almost no blood and you fight sand creatures.

MINOR SPOILER:
The only serious flaw would be 4 mirrors puzzle, you will know it when you see it. Point is NOT to light up all lanterns, it is to conduct ray to symbol near sword under barrier.
