Set in a fictional version of Ancient Persia, the game follows the Prince trying to save the imprisoned Princess from Jaffar, who attempts to conquer the land while her father is away.

Gameplay

The visual style has been upgraded to resemble Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, and the Prince himself has acquired some additional moves, such as the ability to roll, backflip, wall jump and stop time briefly during combat. However, the core gameplay remains the same as the original - defeat Jaffar within one hour, watching out for the many traps and defeating the guards you encounter.

Reception

On its release, Prince of Persia Classic was met with "generally favorable" reviews from critics for Xbox 360 and iOS, with the aggregate scores of 82/100 and 75/100,[1][2] and "mixed or average reviews" with an aggregate score of 73/100 for PlayStation 3 on Metacritic.[3] Reviews praised the updated graphics, smooth animation, classic platform gameplay, improved controls, and extra game modes,[6][4] but criticized the short gameplay and a lack of replay value.[7][5]
