    A terrific romp through an Arabian Nights-style world, only let down by its restart system. [July 2010, p.90]

    Maybe this Forgotten Sands is not a blockbuster, nor it has such visuals as the previous entry in the series, but it has an incredible gameplay.

    Finally a true Prince of Persia game for the Wii. Its one of the best Action/Adventure games on the system. It looks absolutely gorgeous and runs silky smooth at 60fps. This is a must buy for all Wii owners, so pick it up ASAP. You won't be disappointed.… Expand

    This game is awesome. The mechanic of using the pointer to create items to solve puzzles adds so much. Brought back so much I loved about the Sands of Time and made the combat more fun but I could still play this game without combat and probably like it better. Only drawback is that it is so much easier than Sands of Time. Every platform puzzle was telegraphed on what you need to do. Although I never got stuck for a while like Sands of Time. I do like that pointing will tell you if you can make a jump or not which I hated about Sands of Time when I fell to my death on what looked like a possible jump. Overall I recommend to anybody who loved Sands of Time because you might like it even better.… Expand
