    Controls well, looks sharp (but I do wish you also got the refreshed Gameloft edition, too), and works on both the iPhone and iPad without needing to buy a second download. Go get it.

    All and all, this is a great ride through memory lane and a must have for those of you who took the ride back in the day.

    The classic Prince of Persia has seen adaptions across many platforms, but this entry for the App Store could have been friendlier to newcomers.

    Renders a classic unplayable by virtue of horrendous controls.
