“Underrated POP game. I like the part where you're a Prince, in Persia and discover the Forgotten Sands.”
— a player, Steam review · 1 hrs played“Fun midquel, but I do wish it had more going to it. Like...just more levels, more enemies, more bosses, give me more!!! I just love this world and wish that the franchise kept going.”
— a player, Steam review · 8 hrs played“a very funny but unfortunate bug that causes the prince to go stiff like a fainting goat after receiving damage that knocks him over. unrecoverable except with time rewind. couldn't get past the first boss, the guy that knocks you over constantly. would run out of sand, too hard…”
