History

Jordan Mechner's Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame continues the careful swordplay inside a palace intrigue. The DOS sequel arrived in 1993, a Super Nintendo port exists, and the PC game remains the original.

A betrayed prince flees across deserts, and the shadow he casts can turn against him. Single-step jumps, hanging ledges, and a duel that punishes a hasty slash all return from Mechner's first palace.

The flame of the subtitle is a power later battles call on. Mechner's DOS version is the edition his team built first, with the Super Nintendo cart as the later adaptation.
