That's something that felt a bit off in the newer PoP games in my opinion. From there the Prince explored the other parts of the game like going from the different levels of the palace just like in the original PoP Game. This required a bit of stealth and ingenuity from the players end. Then you went off and got a weapon from devious manners. Prince of Persia 3D started you off in the dungeon with no weapon.

Unlike the Sands of Time Trilogy, which each game focused on either being in a palace, or going through babylon, or even going from tower to tower. PoP 3D was very immersive in the aspect that you know and felt that you are in Persian/Arabian Environment. Although PoP Team is saying the new PoP Game is very artistic. Personally I had fun playing PoP 3D even though it had pretty 'bad' bugs. Prince of Persia 3D is best to me honestly the puzzles were the best. The Game introduced Stealth in Prince of Persia game. A cross between Assassin's Creed sword play with more an arcade like touch. Well there was one in POP 3D as well and it did make it through 'finished' product. So that's why its so great, if anyone was wondering.Īs we just saw with POP SOT there was catapult. PoP 3D's story was written by Jordan Mechner and Todd Kerpelman. The rest of the PoP 3D's Production Team: aka PoP Team: Visual Designer: Chris Grun - Now works with Activision and last game he worked on was Ultimate Spider-man. Tom Retigg: He previously worked on the Sound/Music of Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame and one of the ports of the original Prince of Persia game. The last interview that I found is on Gamesutra () Producer Andrew Pederson: Now works for EA. Therefore coming back to why PoP 3D was ahead of its time. So that means PoP Sands of Time was not the first PoP game that did this. I think PoP 3D was ahead of its time with somethings such as animating the characters without motion capture as stated in the video. So that's why I still think it is pretty good and fun/engaging game. Prince of Persia 3D was foremost made by fans of Prince of Persia Series for other Prince of Persia fans. It caused unfinished/buggy version of PoP 3D to release to the public. Unfortunately due to Red Orb Entertainment going bankrupt during the development cycle of POP 3D. POP 3D was the 3rd Prince of Persia game and a sequel to POP 2: The Shadow of the Flame. I was in 8th grade and I still get chills of being able to play PoP 3D and reading the original story bocklet. Only 9 years to this day, Prince of Persia 3D was released today on September 18th, 1999 on the PC.
