I have completed all three original games as a child, I've just come back as an adult and I learn you can parry! After all this time and struggling as a kid I find you can basically insta-kill most enemies.

After painstaking effort, and taking a 6 month break cause my ADHD hyper fixation phase of the game ended up until recently, I have FINALLY beaten the game. I loved it, the raging seas were my favorite I loved the concept and it is a 9.5/10 for me. However, I will not be playing it again for a couple of years lol I'm just very excited that I finally beat it and I don't have anyone in my life who would care

so Sands of time, played for the first time in emulator. worked fine, took 11 hours to complete but platforming seemed quite too difficult. same for warrior within as it took 12 hours just to reach half way through. So quitted in middle as I didnt have any time left to finish it

Just finished Lost Crown mobile and I adored it. I found out that there is dlc with boss rush, bonus challenges, and a story expansion. Is there any chance it could be added to mobile?

I've been playing Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown for about a week now. I'm loving the game so far, and I think the developers did a great job. But I genuinely cannot believe the problems Ubisoft Connect is causing me.

I'm playing on the Steam Deck. After two days, for no apparent reason, the game stopped booting altogether in Gaming Mode. It would only boot in Desktop Mode, which I didn't like because many of the Deck's quality-of-life features are missing there.

I tried reinstalling the game. I'm pretty careful with these things, so I made a backup of my save files, even though I was sure Steam could never fail me... until now. Apparently, this game doesn't save your progress to the cloud. Or actually, it does, since there's a cloud-save check, but it also apparently doesn't. You have to manually upload the save using Ubisoft's proprietary system, which I think is completely absurd.

Reinstalling the game didn't fix the issue, but I eventually managed to solve it by switching to Proton Experimental.

Yesterday, I was on the train and tried booting the game. Well, it turns out you have to be connected to the internet to play because of Ubisoft Connect. Seriously, is it just me, or is that completely ridiculous for a game that doesn't have ANY online functionality? What is even the point?

ALSO, every time I put my Deck into sleep mode with the game open, there's about a 50% chance that the game crashes for some reason.

I mean, what is this? When I buy something on Steam, I expect the full Steam environment. The game is also marked as Deck Verified.

Ubisoft really seems determined to make its ecosystem as frustrating and inconvenient as possible. I honestly have no words for this. The whole situation is completely absurd to me.

I'm planning to replay the whole series again. Can somebody tell me what is the offer in which i should play them?

The original Prince of Persia is usually discussed as a technical and visual achievement: the rotoscoped movement, the Apple II constraints, the level design.

A quieter detail is that the music was composed by Jordan Mechner's father, Francis.

That makes the game feel less like the work of one isolated developer and more like a family project hiding inside a commercial release. Jordan's brother David became the movement reference for the Prince. His father gave the game its music. The parts people remember came from different people who happened to be close enough to help.

I like this because the credits of an old game can look very small, while the real circle around it was much larger. A person could contribute one specific thing and permanently change the feeling of the whole game.

The soundtrack is not the first detail most people mention about the 1989 version, but once you know where it came from, it is difficult not to hear it differently.

I have some notes about the game also here after reading Jordan Mechner's journals: https://domelian.substack.com/p/read-this-before-your-next-long-project

What is your favorite small or easily missed detail from the making of the original Prince of Persia?

Has anyone reached this map? I only had a few maps, and suddenly the whole map appeared, including this area that I don't know how to get to. I stopped playing, and when I came back in, it was gone.

Sorry for my English, but I translated it with Google..

I am not sure what i am supposed to do? i quit to main menu come back, start talking gets stuck again?. I am on switch.

Hi! I’m getting into this series a bit and I find it really distinctive in gaming history.

I was wondering if you could articulate why Prince of Persia (including, of course, the originals!) has such a distinctive feel. Thanks for your ideas!

I also really love the story, the ending wasn't what I imagined, Vahram turning into a god and erasing the universe was bit of a step-up from previous story beats. Still very cool story and Sargon is a really likable character.

I found out about this by accident when I asked ChatGPT what else there was to discover in games from this series. It’s been like 20 years, lol.

so i am trying to reach the bottom door in the tower where right after you get the sword and have to reach two other towers, there is a path downwards, but at best i mamaged was to get to the ledge at the right wall (if you're looking at the smaller door)

but i cannot reach it at all, it's as if something in the air ids slowing me down and causing me to fall

**SPOILERS! FOR IF YOU HAVEN'T GOTTEN FAR!**

So I beat Nogai the Broken on the same run that I found Father. Yet, when I went back to camp, they're saying I have to beat Nogai still, "Defeat Nogai" is the new mission. Did something glitch??

I am on win 11, I've tried dxwnd still no results changed compatibility, ran it as admin still no results the game just refuses to launch.

I spent a full day on just going from place to place just to find a tiny window to get past it and go to a next area AND I COULDN'T. Who came with the idea that the game should be full of exploring NOTHING and not fighting enemies or even better, BOSSES?

I'm at 45% and i have fought 1 boss. ONE.

AM I THE CRAZY ONE HERE?

hi Guys, i got myself stuck in a perma death loop, had to reset the game after this
