The video game Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time has a direct sequel called Prince of Persia: Warrior Within. After another seven years have passed, a monster known as Dahaka begins to pursue the Prince. He discovers that anyone who manipulates the Sands of Time is doomed to die shortly thereafter; yet, the Prince has evaded his fate, which is the source of Dahaka’s fury. Now, the Prince is obligated to embark on a perilous journey to the uncharted territory known as the Island of Time. There, he will search for the fabled Empress of Time and attempt to manipulate time in such a way as to stop her from inventing the Sands in the first place.
The Prince and his surroundings have taken on a more sinister appearance in this iteration of the game. As a result of the Prince’s newly acquired fighting abilities, including new attack maneuvers that use walls and poles, the battles are now more difficult and play a more significant role in the overall experience of the game.
Even while the battles make up a significant portion of the game, there are still puzzle elements, and they are significantly more challenging than they were before. The curtain slide is a new move that may be used in the puzzle areas of the game. It allows you to descend to the ground in a more measured fashion. You may still manipulate time in a variety of ways, and the plot allows you to go back and forth across time, going to the same sites but during a different era each time.
