Prince of Persia (Nintendo Game Boy Color, 1999)

It is a time of war and great darkness. The Sultan has gone off to lead his troops in a foreign war. Meanwhile the Grand Vizier Jaffar has taken control of Persia in the Sultan's absence. Throughout the land, the people hide in terror and ache for better days. Days when the wise and good Sultan ruled.

Then a young prince arrives from a far away land. He has no knowledge of the evil that is taking place. All he knows is that he has won the heart of the Princess, unwittingly making a enemy of the power mad Jaffar.

On his orders, the young prince is arrested, stripped of all his possessions and thrown into the deepest, darkest part of the Sultan's dungeon. The poor Princess is given an ultimatum and one hour to decide: marry Jaffar or die.

Her decision really doesn't matter. Either way, Jaffar gets the throne and the people will be treated to even more hardships. Worse still, true love will be denied because the man who would be Prince of Persia will die too.

In Prince of Persia by Redorb Entertainment you are the captured Prince. You have exactly one hour to get out of the dungeon and to the top of the tower to save the Princess. Along the way you will need to find your sword and collect different types of potions. Just be careful, not all potions are helpful.

You'll need all your wits because you will face many challenges ahead. You must solve puzzles, evade traps, scale the walls and duel with the palace guards, all in under five minutes in order to beat the one hour time limit.

Be careful, not everything is what it appears to be. Not only are you Persia's only hope, you are the Princess's as well. Stop the evil Jaffar and restore joy to the kingdom, if you can.
