i love the interactions between characters!

I have not played any 3d prince of persia but this is a gem of a game. combat is not very demanding and there is zero character progression towards it.
What you will find here in spades is platforming and character interaction between the two protagonists.
Whenever you have the chance to have the interaction you should exhaust the dialogue as many a times it got a chuckle from me.
Your game time might inflate collecting "light seeds" as you need certain amount to progress but many of these are on the road and you do not need to collect all to finish the game in a reasonable manner before it overstay its welcome as the game has simple mechanics and you have seen it all after about an hour and a half.
But there is something Zen about collecting all and you will be scouring for the last couple of light seeds left hidden out of camera sight many a times and Its rewarding as a puzzle solved.
Graphics still holds with amazing animations and fantastic music. I do highly recommend.

credits are longer than the game itself
