Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands review

By Sin1 posted 9th February

First up, it must be said that the game is a great experience and probably the sequel that is most faithful to the original Sands of Time game. The new element-based abilities are exciting and provide with a level of complexity and pressure in the puzzles that isn't matched in any of the previous games of the series.

Yet, the game comes with several issues that must be mentioned; the first to pop in my mind is the length of the overall adventure, very short in comparison to both the original and Warrior Within. Veterans of the series will hardly take more than a few hours play, as the puzzles aren't that hard to figure out but only need practice to be executed. The second problem is the combat system, which is very flawed if compared to the one employed in Warrior Within or even Sands of Time. It does not provide with a great array of combos (despite the added bonus of element abilities) and overall lacks challenge. One can easily beat the game without being game over from a fight, ever. Finally, despite the setting having the now familiar yet still exquisite exotic taste, the story itself holds no surprises and falls a bit flat when compared with the plot twists of Warrior Within for example.

Overall the game has good features and a fast-paced progression that can really keep the player on the edge, alternating puzzles and combat to keep pressing onward. It is beautiful and nice-sounding, but lacks in certain key areas that prevent it from dethroning Sands of Time for the top of series.
