The legendary Prince of action-adventure returns to re-invent the genre he created. Well, this should bring back memories!

We came across this version of the original Prince of Persia game recreated in Flash, and wanted to share it. The original game, created by Jordan Mechner and released in 1989, used an animation technique called rotoscope to give the characters human-like qualities. Anyway, the story begins as the treacherous Vizier has overthrown the Sultan and seized control of the most feared magic ever known, the Sands of Time. It is said that no army can withstand its corruptive powers….In eight short minutes, the Vizier’s bid for limitless power will be complete. Only one soul has the courage and speed to stop him… the Prince. Yet little does the Prince know of the wicked defenses set in place to dash his desperate crusade….The object of the game is to navigate the dungeon to the Vizier’s throne room in 8 minutes and stop him from unleashing the Sands of Time! It was also a lot of fun to play the old version. So check out this special Flash edition and get a taste of what the original was like.

Controls: Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move the Prince in all directions. Use the Shift key to grab onto ledges and pick up items, and hold SHIFT while pressing the arrow keys to walk. Walking allows the prince to stand more closely on edges and pass through spikes. If you are having difficulty performing the Standing Forward Jump (UP+Left or Right arrow key), you may use the space bar to perform this move. When in Combat mode, the left and right arrow keys will move the Prince towards or away from the enemy. Pressing up will allow you to parry an incoming attack, and pressing down will allow you to put your sword away in case you need to escape.
