Prince of Persia, is a mixture of a love story and an adventure. You actually get to play as the young prince and you are very skilled with acrobatics and combat skills also. You obtain this item called the dagger of time. You will use it to unlock the sands of time from a big hour glass. Of course everything goes wrong and that puts you on a quest to right the wrongs and maybe find a way for you to correct what has gone wrong. But of course there is a girl and so we all know its not going to be easy. The story is really good and fits the style of the game. Good Things: The game has got some really great puzzles and challenges that are fun, but most of the excitement comes from the adventure. They did a great job on nailing this game. The way the prince moves and does all his jumps, flips and etc. all look real, not cheesey. Sound is good, great choice of music. The voice acting is pretty good as well. The game also has some great secrets, that make for interesting turns and twist. The controls are good, not slow at all, really easy to get use to and just pick up and play. BAD THINGS: this game may have a few cartooney looks and moments to it and may turn a few people off by that, but hang in there its worth it and there are not that many of them. The game is a little on the short side. Not much of a replay value, unless you are just a P of P nut. OVER ALL: if you are looking for a grat adventure game with some new ideas, this is it. Best of all its at a great price.
