This somewhat shaky port does a great job of capturing the spirit of Prince of Persia games to the point that some of the changes introduced feel pretty weak or unnecessary by comparison, but its core is sound and enjoyable nonetheless.

Amazing Studly Strikes may not be very deep or particularly rewarding, but it’s a reasonable amount of fun and won’t hamstring players for avoiding in-app purchases.

Danger Alliance: Battles is a solid title although one that would benefit from future updates. Speedier enemy AI would be welcome as well as the much promised single player campaign.

This game attempts to capture the magic of tabletop dungeon crawling in video game form, and it does so, but with mixed results.
