Sargon races along a battlefield with his fellow Immortals — a group of Persia’s mightiest warriors. Backlit by the sun setting in a blood-red sky, the group charges through enemy ranks, felling them with swords and arrows. At some points, two or three Immortals appear on screen at once to fight off hordes of enemies. You’re in the thick of battle with an elite troop against overwhelming odds. Unfortunately, nothing quite that interesting ever happens again as Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown settles into a fun but flawed Metroidvania for the rest of its 20-odd hours.
