Prince of Persia: Rival Swords - Wii Video Game

Prince of Persia: Rival Swords, UBI SOFT, 2007

Game Plot: Making his way home to Babylon from the Island of Time, the Prince of Persia finds that nothing is how he left it and his homeland has been ravaged. After the death of the Empress of Time, the sands of time are unleashed and the Prince must fight for everything he loves - his people, his homeland - before he's overtaken from within by the Dark Prince. As a fugitive alone in the streets, it's a race against time and everything is at stake!

Critical Evaluation: Long time gamers will have a soft spot for the new iterations of the classic game franchise - and new gamers will enjoy the new usability of the wii platform with this game. A fun action game combined with puzzles and the threat of a devil within this game is a good time that will keep players interested long after they've started their journey. The levels can be repetitive, and the repeating audio dialogue can grate after a while, but overall the beauty of the graphics and the haunting sound track create a good gaming experience for gamers of all levels.

Rating: Teen

Challenge Issues: Violence
Challenge Response: I would refer to the ratings system in place and the criteria in place to make those ratings.

Why is this Included: Prince of Persia is a classic computer game updated for new gaming consoles. Reinvigorated by the recent motion picture release, this title is a big draw for teen gamers.
