Excellently redesigned for mobile. Was worried since it was ubisoft, this suprised me. Great standard for what should be expected from mobile ports, especially in regards to customisability of controls. To many games give no options to move the buttons to suit. If I couldn't do that, this game would've been unplayable for me. Altered the touch controls and it works great.

mobile controls are very clunky. sometimes you gotta mash attack a couple times for it to register, running will stay on even though you stopped it. parry is iffy. this is meant to play on the go. i dont want to carry a control with me. the pc version was excellent. the game is great, just the mobile controls are clunky

The problem is this is that's it's on mobile. The touch controls are horrid. Walking through loading zones resets the position of your control stick, so half the time you go through a loading zone you accidentally turn around and go back through it. I also accidentally found a softlock while playing through the sacred archives time power to get clairvoyance. The glitch made me not able to move aside from sword slashes, but I couldn't walk off ledges so I couldn't save and reset.

It's almost a perfect port, but buttons disappear by the time i use a controller and they won't come back when i disconnect the controller to play with touchscreen. This bug forces to have touch-only or controller savefiles, which is a shame... even more considering that this issue has been around for 4 months or so, judging by searching it on internet.

Please note that I gave 1 star because I saw Ubisoft's team is responding to users reporting issues: I have Retroid Pocket flip 2, so far all Android games worked perfectly, but this one not. Unfortunately, after installation, when I click on the icon, the screen goes black for one second, then return to home again. I uninstalled and installed the game, same issue. I have enough storage and the handheld works perfectly with any other game. The device is using Android 13.

Crashes on start, straight after the logo appears on my android gaming device, plays ok on my phone, though. Good graphics and gameplay in the demo, at least, though shame, it doesn't work on my device with a controller. Might upgrade if another sale comes around, but I have already completed it on console. Update: Latest version still crashes on my Android gaming device :(

The game is good. After playing for some time the arrived at the Haven in the game. From the Mage in Haven I bought extra life potions and initially it was showing below the health bar but after some time it has stopped showing. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game and downloaded the saved game data from the cloud but still the problem persists. Developer please help.

AMAZING This is a perfect port, the controls are responsive and it's worth the 10 dollars if you play it on console but the only thing that is missing is dlc the game is good and i like action adventure platformers but ubisoft just let the players who own the lost crown on console to transfer their cloud saves to the mobile version cause I don't mind re-experiencing the prelude again I just want to continue on from my console cloud save but above everything else this a great port

One of the best Metroidvanias of all time on my phone for 10 bucks? I couldn't click "buy" fast enough. But then they added a ton of mobile specific quality of life features. They really did a great job on this port. Do yourself a favor and use a controller: the combat system really rewards mastery with parries and combos, and pressing a physical button is always going to be more precise than using touchscreen controls.

impressive! It supports game controllers! + really smooth animation and gameplay, responsive controls, the 2D scrolling + 3D look is refreshing. I've played other games with that kind of 3D side-scrolling thing going, this one really nailed the controls. For me, it's the first one where that type of gameplay really works well. It's as smooth as "dead cells" ahem, you know what I mean...but much more beautiful to look at!

giving this a 5*, although i didn't purchased it here. as soon as I played it on the phone, i went to the nearest store and bought the PS5 version. this game is amazing, but it doesn't work on touch. ofc, you can connect a controller to your phone, and make it playable, in which case, the Google Play version is the cheapest of all platforms. overall, good game, good port, but get a controller or buy it on a different platform.

The game is so cool. I like the fact that the graphics doesn't look too very different from PS5 version and I really like the style, the plot is ok for a game so far and the controls feels so fluid. Edit: What do you mean "Your device isn't compatible with this version"? the game worked fine on my phone. Why isn't compatible anymore? it doesn't make any sense. Most of people can t afford the most performant phone so why would you just make it so they can t download the game (legally) anymore?

I had so many memories from the original game back in early 90s, but haven't been playing any of the other games. I was so stunned at the quality of the game when I played at a friend's on their switch. The dialogues were all in Farsi too, which made it feel very authentic. It all looks wonderful on the phone too, though so far I haven't been able to switch the dialogues from English. I wonder if this has changed on the mobile version. Either way, the gameplay is stunning and challenging!! ?

Not so bad, loved the game and been itching to replay it, good timing on this mobile port! Touch controls, there's no avoiding the awkwardness without a controller, but I didn't think it was so bad from the free trial, parry very generous for the recommended difficulty for mobile. Audio could use some work, particularly the soundtrack (soundtrack is amazing, it needs to be done justice!). Looking forward to any patches to come!

Great game, but it's got enough disruptive bugs. I have my jump, slide and attack buttons not displaying anymore. No way to play it. I can only play it with a controller. I thought it's supposed to be playable on the phone. bummer okay, here's the thing: I payed for the whole game and I can't complete it because I get stuck on a loading screen when trying to finish the very last training. Where's my full game I payed for?

Best port I've seen in a while. the customization for in game and systen features should be the standard. the story is your typical Prince of Persia action hero script but the art, details and immersion is amazing and reminds me of playing action adventure games like Legend of Zelda for the first time. The combat is very fast paced and souls like depending on your difficulty and can be rewarding. As a mobile game this is well worth the 10$ for the full version beyond a shadow of a doubt.

the game is great...I'm facing a problem that whenever I connect my controller and play and then switch the game to touch screen...some buttons like jumping, combat and a few more buttons vanish....I've been facing this a lot and literally locked me away playing touch screen...please do fix this problem to an otherwise great game.

can't actually install. getting a network correction error trying to download the 477mb final file, no matter what network I'm on. Edit: developer responded to this review and told me to use their support system which is a chatbot with no ability to contact a real person. obviously my issue was not resolved, still can't play the game I paid for. Edit 2: Solved the problem by uninstalling and reinstalling several times.

Beat that PC game, loved it, and it's gonna blow up! But the mobile version's touch controls, while pretty decent, aren't as snappy as I wanted. Plus, the music sounds compressed, which totally ruins the amazing soundtrack, especially the Forest Queen part. And lastly, for ten quid, I expected all the skins; that extra £3.99 for skins is annoying, and I'm not even sure if the DLC Mask of Darkness is included.

I owned the game on the switch. Played it all the way through and the dlc. Same on the PS5. It's fun to have this game that I love so much. And I've spent so many hours playing in my pocket whenever I want. It runs on par with the console versions. and has a lot of accessibility options since playing on a phone screen. Is not the best? highly recommend this game worth every penny.

"A buggy loveletter." The story is great, the visuals are fantastic, the stylistic decisions are thought out. But! controller support is a mess. The game doesn't auto detect controller unless it is already connected before opening it. Connecting a controller makes some touch controls dissapear permanently making it impossible to switch back on the same save file. Load screens get stuck once in a while. Icons of potions dissapear. In-game screenshots go missing. Some effects become pixelated.

the game itself is great, so good I paid $10 for the full game. But now that I have, the game freezes CONSTANTLY. IDK if it's my phone ( I'm on a 128g Moto Stylus 5g) or what. But it is highly annoying. I'm talking 3 or 4 second pauses back to back to back sometimes. it even does it on the map and pause screens SMH. If anyone knows how to make this stop PLEASE ? LMK.

a fun game with frustrating mobile controls. the joystick is oddly unresponsive and buggy. it killed me multiple times now. The loading time is a tad too long for this type of game. Overall the pc port is a much better way to experience this. quite disappointed.

Oh man, where do I even begin with Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown? This game is an absolute masterpiece, and I?m beyond grateful to the developers for crafting something so incredible! I downloaded it from the Play Store, and from the very first second, I was hooked. My happiness knows no bounds, and I?m struggling to put into words just how much this game has blown me away. It?s like the developers poured their heart and soul into every single detail, and I?m just so thankful for it! Thanks?

Loads of fun! The best part is that you can use a gaming controller that makes you feel like you are playing on a PlayStation!!! The game has lots of options for easy to expert experience. The free version is available but I will probably be buying the full version.

I love the game and graphics. The story seems promising and controls are very handy. Must appreciate Ubisoft for such a game. Only played the free trail and can't afford the full game but was a bit disappointed by that.

Buttons have disappeared! Whether using a controller or mobile device on both Pixel Pro 9 XL and pixel tablet. what gives? This is a bug reported by multiple users rendering the game unplayable. I can map buttons and edit but during gameplay, they disappear.
