Description from the packaging.

It's good to be the Prince.

Hearken back to a time of unbridled passion, harrowing adventure and blood-pumping action. A mystical place where a once humble servant has transformed himself into a 12th century Persian Prince. Now faced with his most challenging adventure, the Prince must embark on a perilous journey to rescue his bride and avenge the death of the Sultan.

Remaining true to the original series, Prince of Persia 3D seamlessly combines the fast paced combat of a fighting game with the depth and challenge of a timeless adventure. Its stunning animation and advanced 3D technology return the Prince to his rightful place amongst the legendary characters of gaming history.

Be brave. Be strong. Be smart. Be the Prince.

Enter a world of beauty, fantasy and danger.

What begins as a peaceful, moonlit night ends in a bloody nightmare. The Sultan's bodyguards fall at the blade of an enchanting dancer. Your bride, the Princess, is taken hostage and condemned to marry her cousin, the hideous Rugnor. And your quest to save her begins in a dark prison, armed only with your wits and the clothes on your back.

Between you and your beloved stands a host of bloodthirsty enemies- but your weapons will only take you so far. You will need a keen mind to unravel the countless traps and devious enchantments that await you. The slightest hesitation or errant step will have you gasping your last breath.

So sharpen your sword, ready your bow, and embark on a journey that will forever transform you into the Prince of Persia.
