Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown2024

This game might be fun for people who like the genre, however I'm not part of that audience. Before this, I never played a lot of metroidvania titles and this game didn't do anything to pique my interest in the genre. The gameplay loop of exploring mostly linear areas, with most branching paths blocked at first, and then backtracking to every area with new abilities turned out to be more tedious than fun for me. In the end I just rushed the main path to roll credits as fast as possible. Even though I got the edition featuring the DLC, I didn't play it and probably never will. The story is also nothing special. The platforming can be fun at times and the combat is solid, but I just never got invested enough to enjoy it.
