Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time on GBA is basically the portable version of that slick, acrobatic PS2 classic—just scaled down without losing the soul of it. You’re this snarky prince who screws up big time by unleashing a sand curse, and now the palace is crawling with these creepy sand monsters. The dagger you nab early on lets you rewind time when you mess up a jump (which, trust me, you will).

It’s all wall-runs, backflips, and chandelier swings—surprisingly fluid for a GBA game. The levels twist around like a puzzle, and the sand powers add this fun risk-reward thing where you gotta decide: do I rewind now or save it for that inevitable pitfall ahead? The writing’s got that dry humor too, which helps when you’re retrying the same jump for the fifth time. Definitely one of the better movie-to-game adaptations out there.
