Reviews and ratings
If you've played the Prince trilogy, then you shouldn't expect similar elements, a similar combat system, or even references (except for the donkey's name) when playing this part. I'll try in more detail next.
- The first thing that catches your eye is the graphics. It is very different from the previous parts, but only for the better. Detailed depiction of even small elements, lush landscapes of the kingdom will easily make you believe that we are in a beautiful cartoon.
- Battles. There are few of them. All battles take place in 1v1 mode, and focus on quick reactions and choosing a combination, but given that the player cannot die, the battles are easy. It doesn't take long to get used to the combat, but the colorful battles can't help but delight.
- Partner. There is more acrobatics, inclu… Read full
Если вы играли трилогию Принца, то играя в эту часть не стоит ожидать схожих элементов, схожую боевую систему или даже отсылок (за исключением имени осла). Далее попробую поподробнее.
- В первую очередь в глаза бросается графика. Она очень отличается от предыдущих частей, но только в лучшую сторону. Детальная прорисовка даже мелких элементов, сочные пейзажи королевства легко заставят поверить, что мы находимся в красивом мультфильме.
- Битвы. Их мало. Все бои проходят в режиме 1х1, и фокусируются на быстрой реакции и выборе комбинации, но учитывая то, что ГГ не может умереть, бои легкие. К боевке быстро привыкнуть, но красочные сражения не могут не радовать.
- Напарница. Стало больше акробатики, в том числе, благодаря способностям симпатичной принцессы Элики — NPC напарницы-волшебницы. … Read full
Pros
Atmosphere - The game has a very good atmosphere, the cartoon about Aladdin immediately comes to mind. After all, the setting is almost the same, a poor man meets a princess, etc.
Parkour is the main feature of the game, even though it violates all the laws of physics
Cons
The combat is very monotonous and, in addition, it is impossible to die in the game.
Open world - it is, well, it’s empty and the whole game is a grind, you need to collect seeds of light to open a point and so on until the end of the game
Plot - so-so to be honest
Buttons - the game has a very inconvenient qte instead of buttons drawings that you must first memorize before playing it
Плюсы
Атмосфера — В игре очень хорошая атмосфера, сразу приходить в голову мультик про алладина. Ведь такой же почти сеттинг, бедняк встретил принцессу и т.д
Паркур — главная фишка в игре хоть он и нарушает все законы физики
Минусы
Боевка — очень однообразное и вдобавок в игре невозможно умереть.
Открытый мир — он есть ну он пустой и вся игра это гринд, нужно собирать семена света чтоб открыть точку и так до конца игры
Сюжет — такой себе если честно
Кнопки — в игре очень неудобное qte вместо кнопок рисунки которые ты должен сперва выучить до дыр прежде чем играть в неё
An excellent game in the legendary Prince of Persia series
Pros
+ Art with a comic book twist
+ Open map
+ Interesting plot
Отличная игра в легендарной серии Принца Персии
Плюсы
+ Рисовка с закосом под комиксы
+ Открытая карта
+ Интересный сюжет
