Battles of Prince of Persia Review
I have had this game for several years now and am just now reviewing it because I happened across it and saw there weren't many reviews, and the reviews were just okay. Basically, the game reminds me of the card game Magic meets the video game Age of Empires. Growing up, I was a pretty big fan of both games, so needless to say, I am a fan of this game. It is like Magic in that you create a deck of cards that you play with, each card having unique abilities that help you either with power-ups or attacks or defenses. You play as many or as few cards as you want on each turn, and some cards last for several turns and some are instant. Once you have moved all your men or pass, your turn is over and it is the computers turn. As you play the different levels you "win" more cards so that you have a whole slew of cards you can choose from to make the deck you think is best to play with. So, that is how it is like Magic, now, how it is like Age of Empires. It kind of reminds of the crusades mode of Age of Empires, where you are only given x number of players and you have to complete some said mission, basically killing all their guys or protecting something for x number of turns, and you move your guys around on a large map. If you like Age of Empires and Magic, you will probably very much enjoy this game. If you only like one or the other, you may not. However, it is probably more like an active version of Magic than like Age of Empires. It is definitely targeted more for older teens and above. I am 27 and enjoy it very much; however, I have yet to finish it because each battle usually takes roughly an hour, and you usually don't want to play more than 1-2 battles in one sitting, at least I can't find the time. Plus, I like to jump around from game to game instead of focusing on just beating a game and then moving on to the next. Out of the 80 or so video games I have, I have probably only finished 10 or so, so don't let my lack of finishing it deter you from giving it a try.
