Story

Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time takes place in the scorched, sandy land of Persia. The focus of the game is to locate the dark powers of a magical dagger, which controlled the land of Persia in a time of blood and deceit. The player controls the Prince as he tries to find the dagger to repair the damage from earlier centuries. Together with Farah, they attempt to restore the "sands of time" to the hourglass of time. However, Farah had her people under control of the dagger so she uses the Prince to retrieve the dagger herself.

Gameplay

The Prince is equipped with many capabilities to make it easier to fight any enemies you encounter. He has the ability to run on walls and leap over many traps and obstacles. After you recover the dagger of time, you will have a limited use of it. In order to regenerate the dagger, you must kill your enemies, which in turn increase sands of time to help make the dagger last longer.
