Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Gameplay
In "Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown," gameplay revolves around Sargon, the protagonist, navigating a dynamic 2.5D side-scrolling world filled with action and adventure. Players control Sargon, who possesses a range of agile moves allowing him to jump, slide, and air dash between platforms. His primary weapons are a pair of blades that he uses to battle enemies encountered throughout his journey.
One of the key aspects of gameplay is mastering combat and utilizing a well-timed parry technique. When Sargon parries effectively, he charges up his special ability called Athra's Glow, enabling him to unleash a powerful move once it's fully charged. Players can employ various time-based powers for both combat and platforming purposes.
The game incorporates Metroidvania-style gameplay elements. The world Sargon explores is interconnected and teeming with secrets, shortcuts, and puzzles that players must solve to progress. As players venture through the game's world, they discover Time crystals. These crystals serve as a currency allowing players to purchase upgrades for Sargon's weapons, enhancing his abilities and combat prowess.
Sometimes, players may encounter obstacles or puzzles they're not immediately equipped to overcome. To aid in remembering and solving these challenges, the game offers a handy feature allowing players to take screenshots and pin them to the in-game map. This functionality helps players track unresolved puzzles and revisit them later as they acquire the necessary skills or tools during their adventurous journey with Sargon.
Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown Development
"Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown" took shape under the wings of Ubisoft Montpellier, the talented team known for their work on the Rayman series. Their journey in crafting this adventure spanned about three and a half years, dedicating time to shape every detail. To infuse the game with an authentic feel, the music was created by Gareth Coker and Mentrix, drawing inspiration from Persian mythology. The game's director, Mounir Radi, aimed to illuminate this lesser-known mythology, showcasing its influence on other cultures by introducing mythical creatures like the manticore as formidable boss characters.
This adventure within the Prince of Persia universe unveils a brand-new story. While incorporating time-based abilities reminiscent of "The Sands of Time" series, this time, these powers are wielded by the game's antagonist rather than the protagonist, Sargon. Described as an agile and talented warrior, Sargon embodies modernity within the franchise, aiming to revitalize its image. The development team, led by art director Jean-Christophe Alessandri, sought to bring in fresh visuals inspired by modern and urban culture, alongside fashion trends, to offer a new perspective to the franchise.
