    Prince of Persia (2008)

    I've played the game as a child when it came out in 2008 and recently (2022) replayed it. The game aged quite well.AtmosphereSoundtrack: truly amazing. The best scores as an example: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=BN... Read Full Review

    Liked the artstyle but everything else felt repetitive

    Sands of Time was my first PoP game and that was such an incredible challenging and beautiful game. Looking at this game I was intrigued by the art style, and the game did look pretty nice playing it. The prince does not... Read Full Review

    Maybe a gem but far from a diamond in the rough

    When this game was released I received it as a gift, it was one of those titles I played on PC a very long time ago when I was a child. The really old PC and Atari style that often reminded you of Pitfall and I considere... Read Full Review

    A Prince of Persia game for KIDS

    The game is very repetitive. All you have to do the whole game is free the areas from the symbiotic corruption. Clear an area, a boss will interrupt you. You will have to do it 16 times. There are only 5 bosses, the 4 ar... Read Full Review

    Great deception

    I'm a Prince of Persia long time fan, and this game is so easy and boring that I stopped playing it after the second hour. I was hoping it to become interesting as any other Prince of Persia, but I realised that this gam... Read Full Review

    Wasted potential.

    Prince of Persia as a game has qualities much like its own game world: The rich, beautiful and fertile parts are starkly contrasted by poor, infuriating and corrupt ones. Right off the bat I ran into problems with this g... Read Full Review

    Prince of Persia is a sluggish drag in the mud. Not only is it an insult to the fans - it's an insult to newcomers alike

    I really wanted to like Prince of Persia. Sands of Time, Warrior Within, (hell, even The Two Thrones) were spectacular platforming titles that really crossbred a new genre. It's unfortunate, to say the least, that Princ... Read Full Review

    Not the best Prince ...but still a very good game.

    I have to admit that unlike so many people who thought that this game was such a disappointment, I for one thought that it was done very well and not just the gameplay (though a bit broken in certain areas), but also the... Read Full Review

    Graphically, it´s probably the best Prince of Persia you ever played.

    Just finished this quite fresh remake of prince of Persia, although it´s not a remake itself it quite lives to the standard games that the previous games got us used to. The graphics are absolutely gorgeous, there is ... Read Full Review
