    Fluid platforming and frenetic combat, with some lovely spectacle and a dull story.

    Lacks personality, it's not really Prince of Persia.

    To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the licence, the teams at Ubisoft Montpellier are paying tribute to the legend of the Prince of Persia in a very beautiful way. This 2D metroidvania offers such rich gameplay that you could almost suggest a crossover between Ori and Kratos. The platforming phases are totally mastered and the combat has a range of possibilities that would make some beat ’em all red-faced. Even if the dialogue scenes and the soundtrack do not leave a lasting impression, Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is the perfect episode to wait for The Sands of Time’s remake. We would expect nothing less from a studio whose track record includes Rayman and Beyond Good and Evil.
