A repetitive platformer with an interesting plot.

User Rating: 7 | Prince of Persia: The Fallen King DS
By Matrix_Soul | Review Date:
This game is not as good as I hoped. All the levels are pretty much the same, and some things aren't really explained properly. You don't know if you can save or not, which is a real problem. The only good things are the plot and characters. The music, however perfectly fits with the game.

The graphics are awesome, because of its 3-D...ness. But in a cutscene I recently saw, they look like pieces of cardboard, which just looks weird. I was pretty disappointed with that.

The plot is simply about the Dark God (sorry don't the name) who has awoken or something like that. The Prince goes to the City to find the Light King and ends up finding everything Corrupted. He meets Zal, a magus who is slightly corrupted and controls both the light and dark, which is pretty awesome. When he meets Zal, he finds the King-only something horrible happened to him (ain't telling what happened). From time to time, Zal would change to his Corrupted Form and starts attacking you.

Overall, I would give these ratings:
Gameplay: 6.5/10
Graphics: 7/10
Plot: 8/10
Music: 10/10


Overall, this game is an okay game, but several things should be improved.
