Despite it saying it doesn't, it has full controller support. Very different than today's ubisoft games. I enjoy it.

This game is not the typical Prince of Persia game. Too different in any aspect, literally (even Farah is not what it used to be lol), but that's the interesting thing about it. The magic, the world, the atmosphere (you can be at one moment at ''heavenly'' place and suddenly in HELL). The communication between the Prince and the princess is also very intriguing. What intrigued me the most however, was the ENDING. It really makes you question some things in life really deeply - to make a choice you know is somehow WRONG, but nevertheless it makes the most sense to you. Recommend

It's been 16 years. The art style still holds up. The chemistry between the Prince and Elika is still good. Some challenging puzzles as well.WHERE IS MY SEQUEL UBISOFT?
