Rogue Prince of Persia Gameplay

Rogue Prince of Persia is a 2D-side scrolling platformer with roguelite elements. Players take control of the Prince as he tries to prevent his kingdom from being overrun and burnt to the ground by the invading Hun forces.

Rogue Prince of Persia takes place in procedurally generated levels across several biomes. The player will have to complete all biomes in sequence to finish the game. However, dying will send the player back to the camp, which will have them restart their journey anew.

The Prince wields a mysterious artifact that can turn back time when he dies, but he can't control when in time he is transported back to. As such, the artifact always sends him back to the time just as the Huns are about to take over, which then limits what he can prevent from happening.

The player will always start with the Prince's dual blades and a short bow, but more powerful weapons can be picked up along the way either as treasure, as platforming challenge rewards or through purchases in shops. Players can also pick up medallions that introduce buffs and upgrades to the player's equipment and abilities. All of these reset every time the player dies.

The game's pick-up-and-play nature and pacing make it the most approachable Prince of Persia game to date, but the challenging platforming still makes the game worth picking up for long-time fans of the series. Ultimately, the game gives players a lot of tools to work with that will help them traverse the game's challenging levels, allowing players to use both acrobatics and skills to succeed.

Rogue Prince of Persia mixes fast-paced action with death-defying acrobatics and skill-based progression, making this game adrenaline-filled and full of intense and astonishing moments. The challenge is just enough to keep you on your toes, but the game doesn't ask too much from you in terms of investment, making it a perfect pick-up-and-play game.

Rogue Prince of Persia Story

Rogue Prince of Persia starts with the Prince attempting to save The Capital from the pillaging Huns, but his attempt is thwarted by the throng of soldiers and the dark magic wielded by the enemy horde.

Thankfully, the Prince has with him an artifact that can turn back time, allowing him to redo his attempts to save Persia every time he fails.

Rogue Prince of Persia features a story that progresses in a non-linear fashion, with branching story paths that allow the player to change their path to the Capital in every run. Will you go for a full-on assault, or will you take the longer but much safer route? The choice is yours to make, and the consequences that follow, too.
