I'm surprised to see no posting about this game in this forum. I just received my copy and I am thrilled that it is a platformer but you don't use any buttons, just the stylus. The response of the character is a bit clumsy at times, especially if he hangs on a vertical wall for a bit. One thing I like about the levels is that if you want to go back and replay, the overall map is designed similar to Super Mario Brothers 3, just very simplified. I'm not sure if I'd agree with some of the reviews at gamestop or ign with user ratings around 6 and 7. There is some enough innovation with the style of play and the level design/backgrounds that make it a standout title from previous Prince of Persia's. I'd give it an 8. Because some of the technical difficulties with getting stuck when swinging or pointing the stylus.
Some of the attacks the prince can do are pretty nice, the enemy A.I. is alright, very easy for kids to defeat, so it's not hard core that many fans might look for. The game reminds me a lot of Ninja Gaiden on the DS.
