Cruel World
The game is extremely similar to Jordan Mechner's classic - from the 2D/isometric layout, to red potion flasks that represent your health and your enemy's health. You will fight skeleton soldiers, make impossible leaps across chasms, negotiate tricky traps, and generally pull off the same stunts as the famous Arabian prince. Despite obvious similarities, Cruel World may still be forgivable if it matches the fun of Mechner's classic. Unfortunately, more boring level designs, awkward movements, and drab palette degrade Cruel World to be only a poor man's version of Prince of Persia. Play 4D Prince of Persia instead if you are looking for a great fanmade tribute to that game. Replaying the original Prince of Persia games is more fun than this lackluster underdog that could not manage to match its inspiration.
