Beautiful story

When I play a game, the story that the game is telling is very important to me. That's why I often play a game for the second time - to see again what I could have missed, and to take part in the story once more, more consciously this time, as I already know how it goes on. The story told in The Sands of Time is definitely the most beautiful I've ever played. It's about treachery, pride, tragedy, but probably most importantly - about falling in love. And the ending, neither happy nor sad, left me thinking about what happened and what did not, and telling the story again and again to myself, as a fairytale, I would say. Well, apart from the story, the gameplay is great, the graphic is very nice, the music is just brilliant. But still the story is the part, that makes this game most extraordinary.

Obliterated by Time

One of the earlier examples of how to properly modernize a very, very old series. Sands of Time has wonderful storytelling and great presentation. at its core, it's a platformer with a clever "time rewind" feature to mitigate the frustration of the trial and error platforming. Unfortunately, it also has the worst combat ever put in a video game. The idea behind its fluid acrobatic swordsplay is great, but the game has no manual lock-on (making it finicky in battles against multiple enemies), the camera spazzes out all the time, there are no real iframes, you can get swarmed and stun locked easily and there's no real depth to the thing, it's just a matter of exploiting specific moves. To say that it hasn't aged well would be an understatement. Ironically, considering its theme, but Sands of Time has been obliterated by the passage of Time.

An awesome game

I was absolutely hooked playing through it. It's also the first game my missus liked watching. She had such a crush on the price. "No, that's not how it happened" :D

Old game aged well

This game plays fluidly. Though the combat mechanics were a little lackluster, the real point of the game is the platforming. Easy to learn but hard to master. Every level brings on new challenges that rely on precedents set by the game. I played the PS3 version with a controller first and I feared that playing with a keyboard would be difficult., Playing with a keyboard turned out to be easy. Default keymapping is usable, you can change them if you like. Though the combat isn't anything exciting, it isn't bad either. It integrates some of the acrobatics seen in the platforming. The Prince can vault over enemies and I did this a lot because it makes combat easier. It's frustrating to have to do combat again if I die during certain sections of the game. The reverse time mechanic is unique, but during combat it feels more like a quality of life feature than a key part of gameplay. The platforming is inspired. The mechanics behind the platforming are satisfying, with a set of simple moves used to maneuver through increasingly complex levels. Some mechanics may seem odd at first if you are used to other 3D platformers like Spyro or Mario. The ability to jump is based on context with the environment and enemies. Small platforms/obstacles are automatically leapt on and over by moving with the WSAD keys. However, this keeps movement fluid and focused on human acrobatics. The Prince controls like a guy who can really run around and jump from ledge to ledge, which is impressive even now. Hits the right balance between 'realistic' and 'game-like'. As far as the theming goes? It's silly. The setting is a bit stereotypical. However, the great bulk of the game is devoted to gameplay itself rather than story and cutscenes. There's a narrator - he's well voice-acted and the narration doesn't interrupt gameplay. All cutscenes are skippable. It's a great game. Not flawless, but very fun and has value in gaming history to boot.
