Description
In the midst of a land rooted in Persian mythology, the Prince finds himself caught in an epic battle between the forces of Good and Evil: the God of Light, Ormazd, against his brother Ahriman, the God of Evil and destruction. He becomes a witness to the destruction of the legendary Tree of Life - an act which threatens to plunge the world into darkness for eternity. A black substance called "The Corruption" begins to contaminate the ground and even the sky itself. Our heroic Prince, together with the enigmatic and dangerous Elika, must do all that he can to rid the world from this ultimate evil.

Featuring a re-imagined Prince and a beautiful cel-shaded world, Prince of Persia is chock full of the awesome acrobatics and free-form fighting that are the series’ hallmark. A huge, open world awaits you, intrepid adventurer. Will you be the one to cleanse the world of Ahriman's corruptive influence?

  • Non-linear gameplay in a detailed, open-ended world.
  • Masterful storytelling and lavish environments guarantee a cinematic action-adventure experience
  • Introducing Elika, a deadly and mysterious ally, who’s gifted with magical talents and dazzling acrobatic prowess.

Needed a sequel

Pro: - They tried something new and created a great Fairytale - The Combat is more of a "one on One" Duel wich looks and feel good - The World is Beautiful - Great Music Con: - The Climbing is very on Rails as well as the Powers - by the End the Combat feels repetetive - The Story ends on a cliffhanger (DLC ends on a Bad note) so no conclusion to the Story. That is the biggest one for me. I want to see this WEorld again and help save it. About the "you cant die" part: You can Fail. If you fall, The girl will save you and put you back. If you get hit to much in a fight, the Girl will save you BUT the Enemy will refill its Livebar. So it just avoids the Loading screens but its the same as Dying in other games. All in all id say its a great Game with cool ideas and for 10 Bucks or less i can EASILY recommend it. It just sucks that we will never finish the Story :(

The casual prince

Brilliant presentation and cel-shaded graphics, fluid motion and combat, a wider perspective of a game world, and a new turn for the PoP series. But that turn is also puzzling as it left behind most of the things fans liked in the original trilogy. The plot is freeing a cursed land from corruption by defeating evil. This Prince went a new direction. It was easier, and dying was rare. It gave players a lot of slack so they didn't die every time they miscalculated a jump. In fact, it told you directly that you were about to die. Lots of fans didn't like this. They wanted more challenge. Combat was also made into a more rhythmic dance of which the prince and his female friend use combos to defeat enemies. And the enemies. There are nowhere near as many as the original trilogy. Enemies were spaced further apart and treated as narrative forwarding rather than straight up having to kill ten or more brutes with time travel powers. Still, the game is stylish and fun for casuals. Hard core types who liked the difficulty of Warrior Within will not find the same challenge here. This is a strange, and forgotten, Prince of Persia, but it does shine in its own unique way.

Unifinished and repetitive

3h into the game: Combat is repetitive, having to gather collectibles (lightseeds) to advance is tedious, wouldn't pay more than 3€ for it, luckily got it at a sale. Feels rushed and unfinished: the immortality mechanic feels like a patch for a poorly crafted user experience, and the lightseed mechanic an artificial way to lazily stretch a short game by reusing the maps.
