The Good
In Prince of Persia: Two Thrones you once again play as the Prince who is returning home from the events of Warrior Within with Kaileena (if you didn’t get the best ending in POP:WW then you won’t know why) to find Babylon in flames being attacked by an enemy army you soon learn the vizier is behind it and must stop him.

This game introduces what is called Speed Kills which allows you to get a jump on the enemy but using timed button presses if successful instant death to your enemy if failed you must regularly fight the enemy.

At one point you run into Farah but she doesn’t know you cause POP: SOT didn’t happen the game also adds chariot races in which you hop in a chariot and fight enemies you try to board you while avoiding obstacles.

Another added feature is playing as the dark prince which is identical to playing as the Sand Wraith but you don’t regenerate sand.

The Bad
This game really has no problems, it fixed all the problems in every past installment.

The Bottom Line
Overall this is the best one in the series if you skipped POP: WW because it was too different from POP: SOT then this is the one to pick up A fitting end to the trilogy.
