Prince of Persia 2
Didn't realize there was a sequel did you?Genre: adventure - platform
Publisher: Titus
Year: 1996
System: SNES
Gameplay Score: 3
Gameplay Notes:
Much faster movement. Combat is greatly simplified as well. More forgiving ledge grabs. Somehow the jumping is even more laggy than the original. They sacrificed frames of animation to make gameplay faster but this compounds the lag issue.
Level Design Score: 3
Level Design Notes:
Ok I'm taking issue with the level design. Everything is a true maze. There's one exit and a whole bunch of branching dead end paths. It's ok given that it's again a speedrun to the end with an even shorter time limit then the original.
Theme Score: 4
Theme Notes:
The bad guy is back again and guess what? He's got your girl.
Art Style Score: 3
Art Style Notes:
Much more colorful than the original. Much worse animation and simler pixel artwork. Good but not great.
Audio Score: 2
Audio Notes:
Umm, it's not good. The music is poorly composed and sounds like an amateur project. Half the notes sound offkey, like they couldn't use some notes so they substituted them with one that's close. It just sounds off
Overall Score: 59
Review ID: 436
