The PSP version of Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands is an action-packed game where the Prince seeks revenge against the evil fire spirit Ahihud and his minions, who have killed his family members and taken over his kingdom. With a new story, environments, and enemies, this game stands alone from its Wii counterpart.
The gameplay revolves around 3D side-view platforming and action, allowing the player to utilise various acrobatic skills like wall walking and ledge swinging. The game also features a multitude of puzzles that require moving objects and unlocking doors, which can be solved by acquiring special abilities gained from freeing the Sisters of Time. Each spirit grants a unique time-manipulating power to the player.
