I still don't finish, but I must say i'ts beautifull, the graphic, story and characters. I had started this game when there was PS2, and find it for PC it was emotional. I love everything about it, but what I dont like are the enemys. They are too much and u don't menage to fight them and u die in a little seconds

When Ubisoft made good games, this one is a classic with an interesting combat and the most amazing parkour levels much deeper than Assassin´s creed. Also the story is really good! Just the bad thing is the crappy camera.

A classic. Over 20 years ago, when this launched a friend got this game, and we had the chance to play it. It was awesome. Of course by today's standards it is dated, somewhat slow, even clunky, but it was a start to an iconic trilogy of Prince of Persia games.

First of all, I believe on principle that the fact that compatibility issues make you have to edit the game to get it running properly should make this free, or just about. Even having done that, the game was still subject to a number of graphical errors and wildly inconsistent running speed. Several times, physics errors or outright game-breaking bugs forced me to restart the game. For that alone, I can't really recommend paying more than three or four bucks for this.
On its own merits, however, I still think it doesn't hold up very well. The parkour system and time-rewinding concept are quite enjoyable. The dialogue is also a plus. When the game allows itself to be a platformer, I was lulled into a sense of flow and amusement. However, the combat inevitably comes back around to rouse me from my dream. The combat absolutely tanks the game. It is overdrawn, tiresome, and joyless. Repeating the same moves on incessant waves of enemies is so monotonous it practically drove me to tears.
For me, this game is best used as a historical exercise; it [i]is[/i] interesting to see the influence on things that came after (e.g. Assassin's Creed). However, it would seem that despite this game's legacy online, the sands of time have not been kind to it.

The classic Prince of Persia. One of the best trilogy ever made, waiting for the remake of this game. Sands of Time was the only Prince of Persia game I never got a chance to play, and now that I played it, it feels like I completed some kind of a journey.

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is a short but incredibly fun adventure. While the story is simple, the way it is told is both creative and engaging. The combat is enjoyable, and the Prince’s parkour-inspired movement feels smooth and satisfying. The time-based mechanics add a unique twist that keeps the gameplay fresh and exciting throughout. Despite its age, it still holds up remarkably well thanks to its fluid design and charm. It is easy to get immersed, and once you start playing, you will want to see it through to the end. For its time, it was truly groundbreaking.

Released in 2003, Prince of Persia The Sands of Time is a landmark title that revitalized the platforming genre and set a new standard for action-adventure games. With its innovative gameplay mechanics, engaging narrative, and stunning visuals, it remains a beloved classic in the gaming community.
I mean everyone loved the time manipulation mechanic, the ability to rewind time, slow it down, and even pause it added a unique layer of strategy to both platforming and combat, setting it apart from other action-adventure games of its time.
The game presented us with aa compelling story that combined elements of adventure, romance, and betrayal. The relationship between the Prince and Farah added emotional depth, making players invested in their journey. The narrative was well-integrated with gameplay, enhancing the overall experience.
It is a masterpiece

Finally bought this game in the Summer Sale '25. First played this back in 2013! I wanted to play it again, this time after respectfully by purchasing the original game and playing through it without any trainers. I have bought other parts too, will be playing every single of them.
