The Story so Far. . .
Introduction
Welcome to the official game guide for Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands. This installment
of the popular series takes place between Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and Prince of
Persia: The Two Thrones, filling in the gap between the Princes adventures in Azad and Babylon.
The Princes return to his familys kingdom is rife with peril as a new threat emerges from the
desert sanda threat that was locked away for centuries but has now been released. Now the
fate of the kingdom and the world at large rests in the able hands of the Prince. Do you have
what it takes to restore order? Fortunately, you wont be alone. This guide contains everything
you need to know to survive this latest adventure. So set aside your fears and leap into action.

While visiting his brothers kingdom following his adventure in Azad, the Prince finds the royal palace under siege from a mighty
army bent on destruction. When the decision is made to use the ancient Power of the Sand in a desperate gamble to save
the kingdom from total annihilation, the Prince embarks on an epic adventure in which he learns to bear the mantle of true
leadership, and discovers that great power often comes with a great cost.
The Prince
Introduction
The Prince is the son of Sharaman,

a great Persian king. He was raised
as a warrior and athlete, but until
recently he had no experience in
battle. Since his adventures in India,
he has become a skilled warrior.
Unfortunately, his adventures there
have been forgotten by everyone
but him, so his family still regards him
as an untried youth. The Prince is
distrustful of magic, which he realizes
often causes more problems than
it solves. He is sarcastic, and enjoys
commenting on the situations he
finds himself ineven when hes the
only one around to hear.

Basic Acrobatics
You wont survive long without mastering the basic acrobatic skills available to the Prince. Study and practice the following
moves until they become second nature.
Jump
To perform a basic jump, press the jump button and
move the left stick in the direction you wish to jump.
You can also perform jumps while gripping ledges,
poles, and columns.

Wall Run
The Prince can run along or straight up walls. To run 1
along a wall, move the left stick in the direction you

you run directly at the wall (at a perpendicular angle)
youll perform a vertical wall run. If you contact the
wall at an oblique angle youll perform a horizontal
wall run.

Wall Rebound
The Prince can leap back and forth between two walls
that are in close proximity. To do this, wall run or jump
onto one of the walls, then press the jump button.
Keep pressing the jump button to jump back and
forth to reach the top of a wall. You can combine the
wall rebound with a vertical wall run to reach greater
heights.

Interactive Features
Where do I go next? Its a question youll ask yourself frequently while playing through the Princes latest adventure.
And even if you know where you need to go, knowing how to get there can often be challenging. However, if you
study your surroundings carefully and understand how each piece of the environment can be utilized, a path will
become clear, allowing you to blaze through each area with minimal hesitation. Heres a quick rundown of what
features to watch out for.
Walls
At first glance, theres nothing special about the walls
that make up the fortress and palace. But as Prince
of Persia veterans know, walls are just as important
as floors. Both horizontal and vertical wall runs can
be performed on any smooth wall. Initiate horizontal
wall runs to cross gaps in walkways that cant be
negotiated with a simple jump. Vertical wall runs are
equally effective when attempting to reach ledges
and other grapple points directly above you. So if all
you see are walls, think of ways to use vertical and
horizontal wall runs to advance.
Ledges
Ledges are narrow horizontal channels, usually
found embedded in walls, that the Prince can only
Walkthrough
grip with his hands. By shimmying on a ledge, you

can move left or right. But you can also drop from
ledges and initiate both horizontal and vertical wall
runs. For example, if you need to reach a second
ledge to the left or right, simply wall run across to it.
Or if you need to reach a ledge above, perform a
vertical wall run to grab hold of it. If you jump from
a ledge, the Prince leaps away from the wall, useful
for gripping nearby poles, columns, or other ledges
behind you.
Bricks
Look for exposed bricks protruding from some walls to
climb. Jump, drop, or wall run toward a set of bricks
to automatically grab hold and then move normally.
Bricks always form a trail, so follow them up, down,
left, or right until you can reach the next feature.
Sometimes sets of bricks are separated by smooth
walls, requiring you to wall run from one set of bricks
to the next. Jumping from bricks will take you away
from the wall, so make sure theres something behind
you to grip before jumping.

Introduction
Columns 2
Columns function similar to ledges, but on a vertical

plane. While on a column you can climb up or slide
down. To move from a column to another feature you
must jump. There are a couple of ways to do this. For
precision jumps, rotate on the column so your back
is facing the object you wish to reach, then press the
jump button to initiate the leap. But if youre more
interested in maintaining speed, simply push the
control stick in the direction you wish to move and then
press the jump buttontheres no need to rotate on
the column. But before making any jumps, take into
account your elevation on the column in relation to
your targetthe higher you are on the column, the
3
The Sand Army

more distance youll cover during the jump. So if youre
trying to reach a distant ledge or platform, always climb high before jumping.
Poles
Poles can be found sticking out of some walls, allowing
you to swing and jump across them. Most poles can
be reached with a simple jump, but at times you
may need to perform a horizontal wall run to reach 4
them. Once on a pole, push the left control stick in
Walkthrough
the direction you wish to move. This causes the Prince
to swing on the pole, performing full rotations while
picking up speed. During the swing sequence, watch
the Princes legswhen theyre pointing at the area
or object you wish to reach, press the jump button to
release from the pole. At times its necessary to reverse
directions on a pole to swing and jump in the opposite
direction. So before jumping, take inventory of your 5
surroundings and figure out where you need to go next,
Appendix
reversing directions if necessary.
Levers
Levers operate a variety of mechanisms often
required to open gates or solve puzzles. To operate
a lever, stand next to it and hold down the wall run
button to grip the handle. While gripping the levers
handle, push or pull the lever to produce the desired
effect. Most levers can be rotated in either direction,
allowing you to push or pull it depending on which
side of the handle youre standing on. If you cant
push the lever away from you, try pulling it toward
you. Some puzzles require you to manipulate multiple
levers, so pay close attention to what each lever does
before formulating a solution.
primagames.com 11
Switches
Both circular switches and pole switches can be
activated to trigger specific events, such as the
opening of a door or the activation of water features.
Circular switches are the most common and can be
activated by standing or running across them. When
one of these switches appears on the floor, simply
stand on it to activate it. But when these circular
switches appear on walls, you need to find a way to
wall run across it. Pole switches function identical to
poles. As you jump to a pole switch, the pole dips
under the Princes weight and activates some specific
feature. Sometimes switches only activate a feature for
a limited time as indicated by a white timer icon that
appears on the left side of the screen. Move out and
perform the necessary task before time runs out or else youll need to activate the switch again.
Water
Water plays an important role in the Princes latest
adventure, especially once he gains the Power of
Flow. To freeze water in time and stop it from flowing,
press and hold the freeze button. While the button
is pressed, notice how the blue flow gauge slowly
depletesthis indicates how long water can be frozen
before turning back into liquid. Upon releasing the
freeze button, the gauge is quickly restored. By freezing
water you can freeze waterfalls, water jets, and water
Walkthrough
spouts. A frozen waterfall functions identically to a solid

wall, allowing you to perform wall runs and jumps off
the frozen surface. Freezing a water jet creates a solid
pole you can use to swing and jump from. Or you can
freeze a water spout to create a solid column. If you
see water nearby, chances are you need to freeze it to advance.
When maneuvering across several frozen features, consider temporarily releasing the freeze button in between jumps,
allowing the flow gauge to replenish. Otherwise the freeze power may run out before you can complete your sequence
of maneuvers.
Breakable Objects
There are three types of breakable objects: vases,
barrels, and sarcophagi. Vases and barrels may
contain blue or red energy spheres. A single red
sphere replenishes a portion of your health while
each blue sphere restores one energy orb. If youre
running low on health or energy, smash vases and
barrels with your sword in search of these red and blue
spheres. These objects can be found in virtually every
hall and chamber throughout the adventure. Unlike
vases and barrels, sarcophagi are hidden objects
that contain multiple red, blue, and yellow spheres.
Yellow spheres increase your XP, allowing you to level
up and purchase new upgrades. There are only 21
sarcophagi in the entire game, so keep your eyes
peeled. The location of each sarcophagus is covered in detail within the walkthrough. Break them all to earn the Got

Combat 1
When youre not leaping from one platform to the next youre busy battling a variety of enemies eager to
Introduction
halt your advance. There are a number of combat options at your disposal. Lets take a quick look at them.
Swordplay
Sword combat is relatively easy. When youre within
range of an enemy simply push the attack button to
swing your sword once. Continue pressing the attack 2
button to follow up with a series of slashes. By pressing

the attack button five times in quick succession you
can perform a fast five-hit combo, dishing out some
serious damage in the process. But youre not invincible
while swinging your sword, so avoid getting surrounded
by large groups of enemies. Even while youre swinging
your sword in one direction, you can still be attacked
from the side or rear. But if a nearby enemy raises his
sword and is about to strike, you can halt his attack by
hitting him with your sword.
Power Attack
The power attack allows you to swing your sword in a

wide 180-degree arc, damaging multiple enemies
with a deadly horizontal slash. However, a power
attack must be charged by holding down the attack
button. When the attack is ready, the Princes sword
flashesrelease the attack button to initiate the power
attack. All it takes is one hit with this attack to eliminate
weak enemies like soldiers and wraiths. All unshielded
targets within the swords arc are damaged as well.
Still, you must be careful when initiating this attack in
large crowds. Youre vulnerable while holding down the 4
attack button. If youre hit while charging an attack,
Walkthrough
the charge is lost, forcing you to press and hold down the attack button again. For best results, initiate a power attack
while at a safe distance. Hold down the attack button until the enemies come to you, then release it to unleash the
attack. Roll to a safe distance and repeat the process again. This is a good way to clear out large groups of enemies,
eliminating three to four with each attack.
Initiate a power attack at the end of a five-hit combo to unleash a flurry of powerful swings that cover a wide area. 5
This causes the Prince to step forward and spin, swinging his sword in a figure eight pattern, heavily damaging anything
Appendix
nearby. This is a very powerful attack capable of eliminating large numbers of enemies.
Aerial Slash
The Princes acrobatic skills are on full display in the
impressive aerial slash. Start by jumping on an enemys
shoulders and then press the attack button to initiate an
aerial slash. This causes the Prince to leap high into the
air and slice into the enemy during his descent. Despite
its impressive appearance, aerial slashes dont cause
much damage on their own and are best deployed
as a finishing move against an enemy that has already
suffered severe damage. Performing aerial slashes is
also a good way to stay on the move, making you a
difficult target for your enemiesyou cant be hit while
standing on top of an enemy. However, there are risks
involved with this maneuver. Dont try to perform an aerial slash on a sergeant or ghoul. Theyll use their shield to knock
you away, potentially placing you in the path of an incoming attack. You can only jump on these enemies once
theyve been stunned by a kick or shove.
primagames.com 13
An aerial slash finisher is a related maneuver that

can be performed on stunned boss enemies like the
charger, troll, or Ratash himself. When these enemies
are stunned (usually when their health drops below
50%), they slump to the ground and drop to a knee for
a quick time out. While they remain motionless, stand
next to them and jump. A cinematic sequence follows
showing the Prince climbing up the stunned enemy
and leaping high into the air. Keep your eye on the
Princes sword during this sequence. When the blade
flashes, press the attack button to perform a lethal
aerial slash. If you fail to press the attack button when
the sword flashes, the attack fails, causing the Prince
to get smacked with a retaliatory attack. So pay close
attention to the flashing of the Princes sword during this maneuver to avoid taking damage.
Dodge/Roll
Your sword is great for dealing out damage, but it
does nothing to protect you from incoming attacks.
Thats where the roll maneuver comes in. If youre
surrounded or about to be struck by an incoming
attack, simply roll out of the way. Rolling is faster than
running and is a great way to move around during a
large battle. Initiate a series of rolls whenever youre
surrounded and maneuver to keep your enemies
in front of you. Rolling is also a great way to avoid
shockwave-like radial attacks from enemies like the
charger or troll. A well-timed roll can prevent you from
Walkthrough
getting knocked down by these attacks.
Knock-Down Attacks
Most enemies can be knocked to the ground with a
simple shove or kick. Whether a shove or kick is initiated
depends on the Princes proximity to the target. If the
target is mere inches away, the Prince will knock them
back with a shove. But if the target is further away,
the Prince performs a kick. A shoved or kicked enemy
falls back, potentially toppling other enemies in the
process. Kicks and shoves inflict no damage on their
own, but you can stab an enemy while theyre on the
ground for a quick killthis is called a finishing lunge.
However, enemies wont lie on their back forever. So
stand over their body and press the attack button to
stab them before they can get back on their feet.
Even enemies that require multiple hits while standing
only take one hit to kill with a finishing lunge. Enemies equipped with shields (sergeants and ghouls) require two kicks
or shoves before they fall to the ground. The first kick or shove only stuns them and the second one knocks them over.
Spectres cannot be knocked down with a direct kick.
Dash Attack
Also known as the Power of Flight, the dash attack
isnt immediately available at the start of the latest
adventure, but it serves an important role later on in
the game. In addition to being a powerful offensive
maneuver, the dash attack is vital for reaching
otherwise inaccessible areas. If you spot an enemy
on a distant platform, jump toward them and then
initiate a dash attack. This causes the Prince to turn
into a blue streak of energy, flying through the air and
plowing directly through the target. The dash attack is
the only way to eliminate wizards and navigate across
vultures. But in order to initiate this attack you must first
have an enemy in your sight. Dont try to jump and
dash toward a platform or area where no enemies are
presentyoull just fall.

Health Upgrades
The four health increase upgrades on the left side of the center column lengthen the Princes health meter. With each
health increase you purchase you also unlock the upgrade options in the same row to the left. Purchase all four health
increases to unlock all the upgrade options on the left side of the menu. The upgrade options on the left side of the menu
include Stone Armor Levels 1-4, Trail of Flame Levels 1-4, Battle Rage, Battle Fury, and Aerial Boost.
Stone Armor
Description: Surrounds you in stone armor that stops
any damage.
This is a good upgrade choice, particularly early in the
game when youre still learning the basics of combat.
While stone armor is activated youre invincible for a
short period of time. However, it costs one energy orb
each time you activate this power. This power has four
levels, each requiring a separate upgrade point. With
each increased level, the duration the stone armor is
active increases. So if you like wading deep into large
groups of enemies, consider upgrading this power to
its fullest.
primagames.com 15
Trail of Flame
Description: A trail of fire follows you, causing
damage to any enemies that touch it.
For the cost of one energy orb per activation, the trail
of flame greatly enhances your offensive capabilities,
particularly in large-scale battles. To make the most
of this power, roll around and through large groups
of enemies, inflicting fire damage to as many as
possible. When enemies are touched by the trail of
flame, they begin glowing red and their health slowly
decreases over time. Keep rolling through groups of
enemies until theyre all glowing red. When enemies
return to their default color, theyre no longer taking
damage from the trail of flame, so roll back toward them to restore the damage-producing fire beneath their feet.
Each of the four subsequent upgrade levels for this power increase the damage and duration, allowing you to inflict
more damage for longer stretches of time.

Purchasing the energy slot upgrades increases the number of energy orbs available. You begin with four energy slots
and can increase the number to eight through the purchase of these upgrades. Each energy slot purchase unlocks
the upgrade options in the same row to the right. Purchase all the energy slot upgrades to unlock all the upgrade
options on the right side of the menu. The upgrade options on the right side of the menu include Whirlwind Levels 1-4,
Ice Blast Levels 1-4, Power Attack Upgrade, Heavy Kick, and Flight Boost.
Whirlwind
Description: Creates a gust of wind that knocks your
enemies back.
If you find yourself hopelessly surrounded by a crowd
of enemies, whirlwind can be a real lifesaver. When
activated, at the cost of one energy orb, a violent
gust radiates outward from the Prince, knocking
over all enemies within the attacks wide radius. At its
lowest level, whirlwind causes very little damage. But
with each subsequent upgrade (up to level 4), the
damage inflicted increases as does the radius of the
attack. Whirlwind can even blind bosses temporarily,
buying you time to inflict some damage while they
stumble around.

Ice Blast
Description: Creates a wave of ice that damages
enemies in its path.
1
Introduction
Ice blast offers a great boost to your offense, all for the
small cost of one energy orb. When active, ice blast
causes your basic sword attacks to generate linear
waves of ice that travel along the floor, damaging
all enemies it contacts. This effectively increases the
range of your attack, allowing you to damage distant
enemies with the ice waves. Like the other powers,
ice blast can be upgraded up to level 4, with each 2
upgrade increasing the damage, range, and duration.

Activate ice blast when confronting large groups of
enemies and proceed with basic sword attacks to generate multiple waves of ice. For best results, swing your sword in
the direction of multiple enemies to maximize the damage output of each wave of ice.

The Powers of the Djinn

During the course of his adventures, the Prince encounters Razia, a leader from the ancient four tribes of Djinn.
Long ago the magical Djinn joined forces with King Solomon, using their powers to create magnificent cities
and other wonders throughout the kingdom. Razia bestows the Prince with a few magical powers necessary to
complete his adventure.
The Power of Time

Did you miss a jump or accidentally walk off the side
of platform? No problem. With the Power of Time you
can rewind time to the point before you made your
mistake and try again. However, each time you use
this power it costs one energy orb, so theres a limit to
how many mistakes you can make. To use the Power
of Time, hold down the rewind time button until you
reach the point where you wish to resume playing. If
you fall, its necessary to hit this button before dying or
else youll restart from the last save checkpoint.
The Power of Flow

This power gives the Prince the ability to freeze water
in time. When this power is available, a blue meter
appears just below the health and energy orbs in the
Walkthrough
top left corner of the screen. While the freeze button

is pressed, all water is frozen for a limited time, as
indicated by the blue meterthe longer you hold the
button down, the more the meter depletes. Use this
power to freeze waterfalls so you can run across (or
up) them like walls. Freeze water jets to create solid
poles to swing and jump from. Or freeze water spouts
to form solid columns, climbing them to reach new
heights or jumping across them to access new areas.
But keep an eye on the blue meter when freezing
objects. If the meter becomes depleted, all frozen
objects turn back into water. However, you can replenish the blue meter by releasing the freeze button for a few
seconds. Sometimes its necessary to release the freeze button while jumping from one frozen object to the next,
giving the magic a moment to recharge.
The Power of Flight

The Power of Flight, also known as the dash attack,
gives the Prince the ability to eliminate distant enemies
by turning into a streak of blue energy. Thanks to its
speed and range, the dash attack also serves as
a method of travel, allowing the Prince to reach
otherwise inaccessible areas. However, the dash
attack can only be initiated when an enemy is within
sight. Start by jumping toward the enemy, then dash
toward him. Dash attacks can kill most enemies
outright, but more durable opponents may require
additional hits before they crumble into sand. Dash
attacks are always necessary to reach wizards and
vultures, so watch out for these enemies.

The Power of Memory

An ancient Djinn city called Rekem lies beneath 1
the palace. It has been centuries since Rekem was
Introduction
inhabited and many of its features have fallen into
disrepair. But by using the Power of Memory (also
known as Earth Recall), you can temporarily restore
features such as walls, columns, and poles. Once
this power is available, you can see the faint orange
outline of features as they once appeared. Press the
recall button to restore them. Only one feature can be 2
restored at a time, sometimes requiring you to push

the recall button in midair when jumping between two
restored objects. So before pushing the recall button,
make sure youre not standing or clinging to an object
that has been restoredit will disappear and youll fall.
Palace Defenses
Once the palace has been overrun by enemies, the defense systems are activated. The palaces defenses consist of
a variety of brutal traps designed to kill invaders. These traps are usually found in transitional corridors, linking different
areas of the fortress and palace. But these traps can appear anywhere, so keep your eyes peeled for the following. 3
The Sand Army

Swinging Traps
Swinging traps are rather common and consist of
a spiked log suspended by two chains. There are a
couple of ways to get past these traps. When the log
is closest to the floor you can simply jump over it, like
playing a risky game of jump rope. For best results, wait
until the log is swinging toward you, then jump over it
and advance to a safe distance before the log swings 4
back toward you. You can also roll beneath these
Walkthrough
traps. Wait until the log swings away from you and then
follow it. As it begins to swing back toward you, simply
roll beneath it and continue on your way. Although
these traps are rather easy to circumvent, take each
one seriously. If youre hit by one of these swinging logs
it will knock you to the floor, making you vulnerable to
other nearby traps.
5
Appendix
Buzz Saw Traps

Buzz saw traps are spinning sharp blades that move
along horizontal or vertical tracks embedded into
walls. Getting past these traps requires careful timing,
as you often have to wall run across a series of tracks
to reach your destination. Study the movement pattern
of each buzz saw and look for an opening. Getting
hit by one of these spinning blades doesnt only inflict
damage, but it will knock you off the wall, potentially
resulting in a lethal fall. So take these traps seriously
and take your time.
primagames.com 19
Bladed Pendulums
Of all the traps, the bladed pendulums are the
easiest to get past. These resemble the pendulum
on a clock, swinging back and forthonly the edges
are sharpened. In most instances, multiple bladed
pendulums are placed above pits requiring you to
jump across a series of beams to navigate across.
Move past one pendulum at a time, making sure
youre safely past the slot in the wall where it swings in
and out of. If necessary, rotate the camera to make
sure youre in a safe spot before stopping. These traps
cause horrific damage and will knock you down,
possibly sending you to the bottom of a pit or within
the path of another bladed pendulum.
Bladed Poles and Columns

These spinning vertical columns and horizontal poles
are covered with curved razor blades and move
along tracks in the walls or floors. The horizontal
poles are the easiest to get past. Simply study their
movement pattern and either jump over or roll under
them. The bladed columns can exhibit much more
erratic movement patterns, but theres always a clear
opening between them. At times you must run to get
through this opening, but at other times simply walking
is enough to exploit weaknesses in these traps. In any
case, make sure youre not hit by the blades on these
Walkthrough
traps. Getting hit could send you bouncing between

multiple columns or poles, helplessly taking damage
until you die.
Arrow Traps
Arrow traps are the most difficult to spot, especially if
youre moving quickly, so listen for the whistling sound
of arrows firing out of a nearby wall. In their most
common configuration, these traps fire three arrows
out holes in the wall simultaneously at waist height.
You can actually see the arrows flying out of the
holes in the wall and smashing into the opposite wall,
giving you a visual indication of where these traps are
located. If youre quick and time it just right, you can
run past these traps in between each firing interval.
However, its safest (and fastest) to simply roll beneath
these traps, therefore you dont have to worry about
timing at all. Even if the arrows fire, rolling beneath
these traps allows you to avoid getting hit. Arrows
cause minimal damage anyway and will not knock you down.
Spiked Floor Sections

Whenever you see metal grates in the floor ahead,
pay close attention and prepare to pick up the pace.
These are spiked floor sections. As you walk across,
spikes emerge from the grates, stabbing you in the
feet. So dont walk across. Instead run or roll across
these floor sections to stay just ahead of the spikes.
Whatever you do, dont slow down or stop. Spikes inflict
heavy damage and can send you flying to the floor
where youre likely to get punctured by more spikes.
Spiked floor sections are often placed within close
proximity to other traps, so before running across make
sure you can reach safety on the other side. Many
times you may need to time your run to avoid getting
hit by another trap.

in small and moderately sized groups, rarely
exceeding ten soldiers. While a soldiers sword
attacks are slow and weak, several soldiers can
gang up on the Prince and pose a serious risk.

and counter with basic sword combos and
aerial slashes. Power attacks are also very effective, capable of wiping out multiple soldiers with one swipe. For best results, wait
until multiple soldiers are within range before initiating a power attack.

Sergeants

First Encountered: The Fortress
Appendix
Sergeants are the shock troops of the attacking

force, each armed with a sword and shield. The
sergeants shield can block all sword attacks,
including power attacks. Plus, if you try to
perform an aerial slash on this enemy without
him being stunned, hell simply knock you back
with his shield. Before you can inflict damage
on this guy, you need to stun him with a kick or
shove. This causes him to temporarily lower his
shield, making him open to all sword attacks. Better yet, kick or shove a sergeant twice, in quick succession, to knock his shield to
the ground and stab him before he can get back on his feet.
primagames.com 21
Wraiths
Durability: Light
First Encountered: The Stables
Formed from sand, these

undead warriors often materialize
in large groups, sometimes
consisting of 20-30 wraiths. Their
numbers alone make the wraiths
a serious threat in any situation.
As with the soldiers, maneuver
to avoid getting surrounded
and cut into these enemies with
standard sword attacks. The ice
blast, whirlwind, and trail of flame
powers are also very effective
when confronting large groups.
The stone armor power can also be extremely useful when wading into large groups, making you invincible for a short period
of time and allowing you to focus solely on offense. Activate the stone armor, charge into a large group, and initiate a series of
The Sand Army
combos or power attacks with your sword to thin out the resistance.
As wraiths and other sand army units take damage, their skin takes on a sandy tone and texture,
indicating theyre almost dead. Keep up the attack until they crumble back into sand.
Spectres
Damage Output: Moderate
First Encountered: The Fortress Courtyard
Dont get intimidated by these large brutes.

Although a spectre is a bit larger than the wraiths
it often accompanies, a spectre is slow and
relatively easy to defeat. However, he can dish
out some serious damage, so be ready to roll
away as he raises his large barbed blades.
Standard sword attacks are enough to damage
a spectre, but hes much more durable than
his wraith counterpart. Try kicking another foe into a spectre to knock the spectre down. If a spectre is on the ground, you can
stab him before he gets back up. This is by far the fastest way to eliminate this foe. When dealing with large groups of spectres,
consider activating one of your powers to gain the upper hand. Trail of flame is particularly effective against these enemies.
Simply roll through large groups to inflict flame damage while avoiding their attacks.

Chargers 1
Introduction
Durability: Heavy
Weapon/Attack: Charge, Floor Punch
Damage Output: Heavy
First Encountered: The Fortress Courtyard

As their name implies, chargers charge at their enemies,
plowing into them at full speed. Such attacks inflict
heavy damage, so keep an eye on these guys and roll
out of their way before they hit you. But a charger is also
dangerous while standing still. By slamming his fists into
the ground, he can generate a small shockwave radial
attack, knocking you down if youre within its radius. Dont
get near this enemy unless hes stunned. You can stun
a charger by luring him into a wall. After he slams into a
wall, the charger slumps to the ground for a few seconds,
giving you the opportunity to attack. Slash away with your
sword during this time to inflict damage or initiate an aerial 3
slash finisher to take him out for good. But dont eliminate a
The Sand Army

charger until hes cleared a room for you, running over all
the wraiths, spectres, and ghouls. In this sense, a charger
can be a very effective combat partner. Just stay out of
his way as you lure him into each group of enemies.
Later in the adventure youll encounter an armored variant of the charger. An armored charger cannot be
injured unless hes stunned, so keep your distance and lure him into a wall before initiating any attacks.

Ghouls
Weapon/Attack: 1-Handed Sword and Shield
5
Appendix
First Encountered: The Prison
Ghouls perform much like the sergeants faced

early during the adventure. Armed with a sword
and shield, a ghoul can deflect basic sword
attacks, making him particularly dangerous when
mixed with large groups of wraiths and spectres.
When possible, knock this enemy to the ground
with a couple of quick kicks and stab him. This
can be difficult when ghouls are encountered
in large groups, however. Consider turning to one of your powers such as ice blast or stone armor. While these powers are active,
your sword attacks have a stunning affect on a ghoul, causing him to temporarily lower his shield, opening him up to follow-up
attacks. Trail of flame is also an effective way to dish out damage to this foe without even drawing your sword.
Dont attempt an aerial slash on a ghoul unless it is stunned by a kick or shove, otherwise he will simply knock you away
with his shield.
primagames.com 23
Summoners
Weapon/Attack: Electrical Shock
First Encountered: The Sewer
Surging with electrical energy, summoners

can conjure wraiths and spectres from the
ground, supplying a seemingly endless
number of reinforcements. To stem the tide of
reinforcements, always hunt down summoners
at the beginning of any fight. While standard
sword attacks are effective, its much faster to
kick this enemy to the ground and stab him. But
act quickly when moving close to a summoner, otherwise hell knock you back with a powerful electrical shock. Rush toward him
The Sand Army
and kick him down before he can retaliate. If you prefer to take on large groups of enemies, let the summoner survive. This allows
you to eliminate more and more enemies, gaining more XP in the process. A summoner will eventually run out of energy and stop
conjuring reinforcements, so there is a limit to how much XP you can gain from each battle.
Wizards
Durability: Light
Weapon/Attack: Explosive Fireball
First Encountered: The Terrace
Wizards appear on distant ledges and platforms

and attack from long range with an explosive
fireball-like projectile. This enemy is usually a pale
blue color, but as he charges up an attack, he
becomes engulfed in flames prior to launching
a fireball. Be ready to move out when you see
this enemy glow with fire. Moving (and rolling) is
the best way to avoid these attacks, but even
the splash damage from a nearby explosion can reduce your health meter. As a result, its best to eliminate wizards as soon as
possible. The only way to take out a wizard is with the dash attack. Simply jump toward a wizard and initiate a dash attack to plow
through him. The dash attack also allows you to reach the distant locations where a wizard appears. So if youre having a hard
time reaching a certain area, look for a wizard and figure out a way to dash toward him. Many times the presence of a wizard
can help you figure out where to go next.

Introduction
Vultures
Durability: Light
2
Weapon/Attack: N/A

Damage Output: N/A
First Encountered: The Aqueducts
Vultures perform a similar function as wizards,

allowing you to jump and dash from one area
to the next. But unlike wizards, vultures pose no
threat. Instead, they simply hover in one place,
serving like a living platform. When theres
nowhere else to jump, look out for vultures. When 3
you spot one within reasonable range, jump
The Sand Army

toward it and execute a dash attack. The dash
attack doesnt kill the vulture immediately, but it does allow you to dangle from the creatures legs for a few seconds. Before the
vulture dies (and takes you down with it), jump to a new platform or other interactive feature. In many cases you must jump and
dash across a series of vultures to reach a new area. During these sequences, maintain a steady rhythm by pressing the jump and
dash buttons until you reach solid ground.
Scarabs 4

Appendix
These pesky insects appear in large swarms,

surrounding the Prince wherever he goes. Due
to their speed, its nearly impossible to avoid
getting surrounded by scarabs. Activate your
stone armor power and start swinging away with
your sword. Scarabs are the weakest enemy
you encounter and only require one hit with the
sword to kill. Stone armor allows you to avoid
taking damage from a swarm while you clear out the bulk of the insects. The whirlwind power is also an effective way to take out a
large swarm, eliminating every scarab within the whirlwinds radius.

of the room. From the walkway, use the next
two columns to reach the balcony high above
the room where a palace guard is holding off
several attackers.
By the time you reach the balcony the palace guard has fallen and the enemy soldiers
turn their attention to you. There are five soldiers and two sergeants in this fight and there
isnt much room to maneuver. Charge up a power attack and swing at the first few
soldiers that approach. Roll out of the way of any incoming attacks and set up another
power attack to take out the remaining soldiers. Afterward, knock over the sergeants

After the fight, move to the opposite end of the

balcony and perform a horizontal wall run high above
the courtyard to reach the next set of columns. As the
Prince slows and turns, jump to grip the first column.
Leap from one column to the next until you reach this corner of
the room. Slide down this last column until youre at approximately
the same height as the top of the red banner hanging on the
wall to the right. Rotate on the column so your back is facing
the banner and then perform a jump. The Prince leaps from the
column and uses his sword to slide down the banner.
Now that youre on the ground floor, you can go after those soldiers who were
chasing Malik. A gathering of three enemy soldiers is standing at the bottom
of the steps straight ahead. Move forward until they notice you, then stop and
charge up a power attack, swinging as they move within range. Take these guys
out fast because reinforcements are on the way!
As you finish off the first three enemies, a large group of soldiers and sergeants come
rushing down the steps to join the battle. Cut your way through the regulars first, then
focus on the three sergeants. Isolate the sergeants, kick them down (with two kicks
each), and move in for the quick kill. If you cant get enough spacing between the

The Prince is finally reunited with his brother in the vault. Malik
shows no hesitation to release Solomons Army, despite the

the large vault-like door. The seal rotates in the socket and then
pops out, splitting into two pieces. Malik picks up one piece while
the Prince grabs the other.
Suddenly, glowing sand begins trickling out of the vault

door. As the sand accumulates on the floor, undead
warriors emerge from the grains. Their mere touch
turns Maliks palace guards into sand. Chaos ensues

In the hall beyond the vault, the earth continues to shake,

causing large chunks of the floor to collapse. Navigate these

You find yourself in a small chamber with a portal-like opening

in the wall on the left. The nearby stone door is sealed, so theres
nowhere else to go. Step through the portal and see whats

The portal transports the Prince into a

calm but surreal environment. Pieces
of towers, columns, and archways float
in the distance, suspended in mid-air.
Although strange, there are no threats
here. Follow the walkway up the steps
and approach the fountain.

Introduction
As the Prince nears the fountain, the shape of a woman takes
form, materializing out of the water. She says she is Razia,
an ally to King Solomon. It is Razia, of the Djinn, who was
responsible for sealing away Solomons Army. She reveals that
the army never belonged to King Solomoninstead it was sent
to destroy him. It was formed from the desert sand, and the
more sand the army touches, the more soldiers it will create. 2
If the army isnt stopped quickly, it will cover the world. Theres

only one way to stop it. The two halves of the seals Malik used
to unleash the army must be reunited. Razia then touches the
Prince, saying she has given him more time. Its unclear what she means now, but it will soon make sense. Before departing, Razia
warns the Prince of Ratash, the leader of the army. Ratash will be seeking the seals as well, but Razia advises not to confront him,
as he cannot be destroyed. Once Razia disappears, backtrack to the portal and return to the treasure vaults corridor.
Before exiting back through the portal, explore the two walkways flanking the
fountain, leaping over the gaps. There are vases at the end of each walkway
containing both red and blue spheres. As you remember, red spheres restore
health while blue spheres restore energy. At the moment, you have no energy 3

Now all you have to do is swing across a series of four poles to

slide down the red banner above the balcony. However, time
your jump carefully when you reach the second pole. You
must wait for the massive cog to turn, exposing a gap, before
leaping to the third pole. Continue to the fourth pole, leap

Start by jumping over to the central wooden platform. Here

you find a lever capable of rotating the entire platform. Rotate
the platform a quarter turn counterclockwise so its wooden
post aligns with the post shown here. Once in position, leap
across the posts to reach the small stone platform against the
perimeter wall.
Now you must perform a couple of horizontal wall runs while

avoiding some nasty traps. Time each run carefully to avoid
contact with the ascending and descending bladed traps. The
first trap is a buzz saw set into the wall. Start your run as the buzz
saw begins moving down. The second trap is a pole covered
with sharp curved blades. Initiate the wall run as soon as the pole
descends below the platform.
Wall run up this large tower to reach the ledge. On the ledge,
watch the rotating piece directly above you. When a smooth
metal surface is exposed, wall run up again to reach the next
ledge. From the second ledge, jump to the ledge behind you

wall run to evade a buzz saw trap set into the wall.

After evading the buzz saw trap, pull yourself up onto the nearby
balcony, wall run up the wooden door, and then jump to reach
this golden pole switch. This raises the wooden platform in the

platform, landing on the very tip of the wooden post.
Before attempting the jump, make sure youre properly

aligned with the wooden post attached to the central
platform. Shimmy left or right along the pole until your 2
body is in line with the post, then commence your jump.

Back on the central platform, use the lever to rotate the
platform 180 degrees so the wooden post aligns with the post
on the opposite side of the room. Leap across the gap and
begin your ascent. This sequence is nearly identical to the one
you just completed below.

Now, interact with the lever and rotate the central platform
until the wooden post is pointing at the large tower marked
by a circular switch. Move to the end of the post, jump
toward the tower, and then perform a vertical wall run to
step on the switch. Once the switch is activated, jump back
to the platform before falling. The switch has opened the
stone door on the opposite side of the room, but only for a few seconds.
Quickly use the lever to rotate the platform 180 degrees so

the wooden post is pointing at the open doorway. Finally, rush

Another lever and more machinery await in the next room. Here
you must find a way to reach the balcony on the opposite side
of the room, where several wraiths await your arrival. Start by
rotating the lever a quarter turn to spin the nearby ring on the right
wall. Jump onto the nearest bar on the ring then leap to a pole
to reach the second bar. From there you can jump to a small
platform in the back corner of the room.
Leap to this golden pole switch to raise a platform near the

a vertical wall run to access another lever.
Rotate this lever a quarter turn to raise a column in the center

of the room. Once in place, return to the rooms entrance
using the nearby poles and banner to safely make your
descent.
Walkthrough
Back at the first lever, push it a quarter turn to lower a column

from the ceiling. The two columns connect in the middle,
creating one long column spanning the entire room. Return to
the second lever via the platform you lowered earlier. Jump
over to the platform, then perform a vertical wall run to reach the second lever. But dont touch the lever again.
Now jump to the pole on the ring on the left side of the room,
and swing over to the bar at the top. From the bar, leap over to
the joined columns. Next, jump over to the bar on top of the ring
at the opposite side of the room. From there you can leap to the

tries to reach the balcony where his brother is
under attack, he leaps toward a large wooden

the water becomes liquid again. However, the blue bar
regenerates quickly on its own when the button is not pressed,
returning to full capacity within a couple of seconds. To

the blue meter is depleted. When you reach the last column,
leap to the walkway on the left before time runs out.
If the blue meter is running low, you can always release

the freeze button momentarily in between jumps to
partially recharge it. This takes careful coordination, but its
a skill you should get familiar with as your proceed.
Navigate through a couple of simple water obstacles using your new freeze power. As

But as you
reach
the floor, a group of ghouls reach through the
cells bars and turn the prisoner into a sand statue. Afterward, they turn toward you as more regular wraiths emerge from the floor.
The ghouls are equipped with shields capable of blocking your basic attacks. Kick them once to stun them or kick them twice to
knock them over. Then follow through by taking them out while theyre on the ground.
Walkthrough
If youve unlocked the ice blast power, consider activating

it during this fight. This allows your sword to cut through the
shields of the ghouls. Plus, each attack produces a trail of
ice that damages other enemies in the background. One
activation of the ice blast power is more than enough to
help even the odds in this battle.
After the fight, jump onto this column and climb to the top.
From there, jump to the ledge above the iron gate. Shimmy
right along the ledge, and then perform a horizontal wall
run and jump to reach the gold pole switch protruding from
the adjoining wall.
The pole switch activates two jets of water, squirting out of the wall
ahead. Freeze the water and then jump and swing across the
poles to reach the post on the far side of the room. Remember,
keep the freeze button depressed while maneuvering on

Introduction
From the post, leap across the two columns to reach a post on
the opposite side of the room. There are three water jets on this
side, too. Freeze the water and then swing and jump across the
three frozen poles to reach the ledge on the adjoining wall.

Shimmy right along the ledge and use the freeze power again
to turn the two nearby jets of water into solid poles. Perform a
horizontal wall run toward the first pole, then swing and jump
to the next pole. As you jump from the second frozen pole,
be ready to perform a vertical wall run to reach the walkway

theres a spiked floor section just below. If you miss the jump,
rewind time and try again until you are able to grab hold of
the column.
Once on the stone column, freeze the water to create two

columns nearby. Leap across the two water columns toward the
stone column at the far side of the room. Rotate on the stone
column so your back is facing the nearby suspended cage. A
simple jump causes the Prince to leap from the column and grab
hold of the cage.

Shimmy along the edge of the cage until you can

jump to the next cage. Leap from cage to cage
occasionally using the freeze power to create
columns to aid your advance across the room.
Navigate a couple of ledges on the side of the room,
then leap back to a cage.
Leap across the last two cages and freeze water to create two
columns on this side of the room. Rotate on the second column so
your back is facing the nearby ledge, then jump to grab hold of it.
On the ledge, maneuver just above the red banner and then drop
to slide down to the floor, slicing through two banners during the
long descent.
As soon as your feet hit the floor, several

wraiths, ghouls, and spectres materialize
around you. Roll to a safe distance, then
commence your attack. If you have energy
to spare, consider using one of your powers to
dish out some heavy damage to this group.
Walkthrough
Both the ice blast and whirlwind powers are

very effective in this battle, helping you take
out a large number of the wraiths. Once the
group is more manageable, knock the ghouls
and spectres to the floor and finish them off
while theyre on their backs.
After defeating all the enemies in the room, turn back to the
banner you slid down earlier and search for this circular switch
on the wall in the corner. Wall run up to the switch to extend
a platform. As soon as you hit the switch, jump over to the
platform. The platform is only extended for a few seconds, so
quickly jump to the nearby pole switch before the platform
retracts back into the wall. If you fall, activate the switch and
try again.
Leaping to the pole switch causes water to pour from the spout in the
center of the room as well as from the wall ahead of you. Use the freeze
power and then leap to the pole just ahead of you. Swing around the
pole and jump to the nearby wooden post.
Next, stand on the post and look out toward the water pouring
from the spout in the center of the room. Freeze the water
to create an column. Leap over to the column, then jump
toward the pole switch in the center of the room. This rotates
the spout and generates a few more water jets on both sides
of the room. But you have some problems to worry about first.

As you drop from the pole switch, several 1

ghouls and spectres emerge from the floor.

tricky maneuver so feel free to rewind time if you miss. From the
second pole swing, jump to the wooden post.

speed and precision. Standing on the post,
turn toward the next set of water jets and freeze
them. Immediately jump to the first frozen pole,
swinging and jumping from one to the next.

On the third pole, continue swinging and jumping toward the wall. As you contact the
wall, perform a vertical wall run, then jump back to the fourth pole directly behind you.
The timing of your jump at the top of the wall
run is critical and difficult to pull off, so rewind
time if necessary until you get it just right. If
you fall to the floor from this height, you will
die, forcing you to restart this whole sequence
from the last save checkpoint. Rewinding time
can prevent some serious controller-throwing
frustration.
If the blue meter is getting low, release

the freeze button as you perform the
vertical wall run. This gives it a bit of time
to recharge before you have to reactivate
it to grip the fourth pole.
As soon as you grab the fourth pole, reverse directions, swinging

toward the same wall you just ran up. Once again, jump to the
wall, perform a vertical wall run, then jump to the post behind
you. Step onto the adjoining walkway and take a deep breath. If
youre still pressing the freeze button, you can finally let go.

As you drop into the room, a summoner appears, emitting

orange arcs of electricity from his hands. This guy isnt much of a
fighter but can conjure an endless number of wraiths emerging
from the floor. Roll past the wraiths and make a beeline for the
summoner. All it takes is one swift kick to knock him to the ground,
making him easy to finish off with a quick stab. If you dont take
out this guy quickly, hell continue producing more and more
wraiths. Make a habit of prioritizing summoners at the start of any
battle. Once this guys down, eliminate the wraiths to clear the
room of all threats.
Summoners can retaliate with an electrical strike if you linger nearby without attacking them. When you move in close,
kick them to the ground quickly before they can charge up an attack.

180 degrees until water jets appear on the wall to the left.
Freeze the water jets and leap across to a couple of poles. As

you jump from the second pole and contact the wall ahead,
perform a vertical wall run. Then jump to grab the gold pole
switch behind you. This opens the gate on the nearby wall,
providing an exit. From the pole switch, freeze the nearby water
jet and jump back to the platform with the lever.
Rotate the lever a quarter turn until two spouts of water pour

Ratash is saying, but his intentions are clear as he begins
hurling explosive fireballs at the Prince, demolishing large
segments of the walkway.
As you regain control of the Prince, advance along the

damaged walkway. As you near the crumbled edge of
the walkway, perform a horizontal wall run on this wall to
the right and freeze the water jet ahead to create a pole.
Swing from the frozen pole to the nearby wooden beam,
then freeze the spout of water ahead to create a column.
Jump to the column and slide down until you can jump
over to the walkway below.
Introduction
On the next walkway, wait for Ratash to demolish the path
ahead before making any plans. Once the dust settles,
perform a horizontal wall run on the wall to the left. As the
Prince slows and turns, jump to the column on the right. Jump
to the neighboring column and wait for Ratash to destroy the
wall on the left, creating a new path for you.

While still gripping the second column, use your freeze power.
Jump to the nearby column, and then leap across the three
poles toward another column. Move through this area quickly to
prevent the blue meter from running out. However, if you want
to earn the Stay Dry achievement/trophy, this is a great place to
do it. Simply jump between the two columns and three poles for
a full minute without using the Power of Time. Release the freeze
button in between jumps to allow the blue meter to recharge
while leaping back and forth between these five frozen features.

Beyond the column is a frozen waterfall, blocking
your path to the next walkway. Leap from the column
and immediately release the freeze button to pass
through the thawed waterfall. Dash through the open
doorway ahead to return indoors, escaping Ratashs 4
explosive attacks.
Inside, perform a horizontal wall run along this wall and then Walkthrough
jump toward the column suspended from the ceiling. Maneuver
along the columns, ledges, and posts here until you can jump 5

immediately surround you as you drop from

much room to maneuver in this relatively small
chamber, so consider using one of your powers
to quickly dispatch some of the threats. The
whirlwind, trail of flame, and ice blast powers
are all very effective in this cramped space.
Once the crowd is more manageable, finish off
the survivors by knocking them to the ground
and stabbing them. Once the battle is over,
smash the vases on the rooms perimeter to
stock up on health and energy.

Immediately release the freeze button as you release the pole
so you can pass through the waterfall. Once youre through
the waterfall, press the freeze button again to create another
pole from the next water jet. From there you can swing and
jump to the next corridor. If you fall, you can backtrack to the
start and try again or you can always rewind time if you have
energy to spare. Since the fall isnt fatal, its best to start over.
The passage leads back outside where Ratash greets you

by demolishing the floor. No worries. Perform a horizontal wall
run along the wall on the right. While running along the wall,
use your freeze power and then jump to the nearby pole.
Swing and jump to a second pole and continue to the next
undamaged span of the walkway.
Hold back as Ratash launches another explosive attack, destroying the floor ahead.
Deploy your freeze power once again, wall run along the frozen waterfall on the left,
and leap the stone column on the right. From there you can use your freeze power
and leap across two more columns to reach a nearby balcony.

Introduction
Leap toward the next walkway, performing a vertical wall run to
reach it. As you pull yourself up, the walkway explodes, leaving
behind several water jets and waterfalls.

This next sequence is a bit tricky, but you should be able to
handle it by now. Start by freezing the water and jumping to the
first pole. Jump from the pole and release the freeze button to
pass through the waterfall. As soon as you make it through the
waterfall, press the freeze button again to grab hold of the next
pole. Continue in the same fashion, leaping through the two
waterfalls while navigating across the three poles until you can
jump to the next walkway.
The Sand Army

Youre ambushed by several enemies in the next room, including
three summoners. Roll or kick your way past the wraiths and
take out the summoners first to prevent them from creating
reinforcements. As usual, kick these guys to the ground and stab
them before they can get up. Once theyre eliminated, the
remaining wraiths and ghouls are relatively easy to mop up with
basic attacks.

Ratash fires one more explosive attack, blowing a hole in

the nearby wall as the Prince makes a life-saving dodge.
Then, just as quickly as he appeared, Ratash utters
something and leaps out of sight, moving in the direction
of the throne room. Perhaps Ratash is chasing after Malik in

The massive observatory chamber is

dominated by a large rotating mechanism
featuring several arms and platforms.
Apparently this was used to predict the future,
but it did little to foresee the rise of the sand

Soon after you reach the floor, an armored charger

materializes along with a host of other enemies. The armored
charger is decked out in heavy armor, making it impervious
to anything but charged power attacks. For starters, begin
circling around the room to avoid its charging attacks. For
best results, lure a large group of enemies in front of you and
then roll out of the way before the armored charger makes
his run. By using this tactic you can have him clear out all the
other enemies for you.
Once all the wraiths, spectres, and ghouls have been run
over by the armored charger, focus on attacking this foe.
After running headlong into a wall, the armored charger
hunches over. Run up behind him and and initiate a power
attack. Standard sword attacks do nothing, so keep hitting
him with power attacks. But back off when he stands up
and pounds his fists into the ground, producing a radial
attack. As the enemys health dwindles away, his skin turns a
sandy tone, indicating hes nearly defeated. As the armored
charger dies, he slams into a nearby wall, exposing a ledge.

Execute a vertical wall run to grab hold of

the ledge near where the armored charger
crumbled into sand. Once on the ledge,

Once you regain control of the Prince, rush toward Ratash. Despite Razias warnings, you
have no choice but to confront this monster now. But watch out for his sand projectile
attacks. To avoid them, roll left or right. You must move to close range before he stops
this attack and starts swinging his sword.
Ratash is large and powerful, but hes also quite slow. Roll behind him and start slashing
away at his legs. As long as you stay behind him, you can avoid most of his sword
attacks. Constantly monitor the direction hes facing and roll as necessary to stay
behind him at all times.
Even if you stay behind Ratash, his stomp attack can still hurt you. Whenever you see
him raise his right foot, roll away as quickly as possible, putting as much distance
between you and Ratash. As his foot slams down, it generates a radial shockwave that
will knock you down if youre within its radius. If you cant get away fast enough, either
jump or perform a carefully timed roll to avoid taking damage from this attack.
Your sword attacks

inflict little damage
on Ratash, but keep slashing away at his legs until his health is
50% depleted, as indicated by his gold health bar at the bottom
of the screen. At this point, follow the on-screen directions to
perform an aerial slash. As Ratash drops to a crouch, jump up. In

circle around the room. As you near Ratash, stay behind him and try to lure him into
hitting his own wraiths with his sword attacks. Continue circling around Ratash until hes
eliminated all the wraiths.
Once all the wraiths are eliminated, roll behind Ratash and
resume slashing away at his legs. Consider activating one of
your powers to maximize the damage output of your attacks.
Both the ice blast and trail of flame powers are very effective
at quickly depleting Ratashs health bar. Watch out for his
stomp attacks and quickly roll to a safe distance when he
raises his right foot.

When Ratashs health bar drops below 25%, he slumps to a

crouched position. Immediately perform a jump to initiate a

vaulting himself high into the air. Watch the Princes sword and
when it flashes, press the attack button to perform a viscous slash
across Ratashs chest. If you fail to hit the attack button at the
right time, Ratash knocks the Prince away, forcing you to restart
the previous sequence.
After the Prince slashes Ratash, Malik returns and stabs the beast
in the back. Ratash writhes in pain, dropping to his knees, but his
energy flows directly into the seal on the armor on Maliks chest.
Screaming in pain, Malik stumbles about the room momentarily
and then bursts through a solid wall. This isnt good. Following
the cutscene youre awarded the Not What it Looks Like

it and then wall run toward the pole. Swing and jump from
the pole toward the walkway below and then execute a
dash attack to slam into a lone wraith.
Back on solid ground youre greeted by a group of

wraiths and spectres. Engage them with standard
sword attacks, rolling as necessary to avoid
retaliatory blows. Avoid performing aerial slashes
here to prevent inadvertent leaps off the ledge.
When youre finishing fighting, smash the nearby
vases to stock up on energy and health.
Now you must navigate across a series of vultures to reach the distant balcony by
jumping and dashing from one vulture to the next. As you leap from the second vulture,
jump toward a wall on the right. Upon contacting the wall, perform a vertical wall run
and then jump and dash toward the third vulture. Continue jumping and dashing to the
next few vultures until you can reach the balcony.
Walkthrough
The next corridor is filled with an array of traps. However, all of them can be negotiated
with some patience and careful timing. As usual, advance past one trap at a time,
paying close attention to the notches in the walls. The traps here are set very close to
one another, but theres still plenty of room to take one at a time. This is one instance
where walking is preferable to running.
Beyond the trap-filled corridor, freeze the waterfall ahead and

then wall run along the wall on the right. Jump toward the
frozen waterfall, execute a vertical wall run, then jump back
to the wall on the right. Perform another vertical wall run and
then leap to the platform behind you, which is occupied by a

simply kick them off the ledge.

As you leap from the vulture to the last platform,
you discover the source of those voices
you heard earlier. Four palace guards have
survived the sand armys attack. But Malik, in
his new grotesque form, suddenly leaps onto
the platform and swings at the guards with his
massive sword, turning them into sand statues.

must be in complete control now.
The Sand Army

As soon as you regain control of the Prince, roll to the left or right
to avoid Maliks sand projectile attacks. Keep rolling until you

Malik is just like fighting Ratash. Stay behind him at all times and
slash away at his legs. To optimize damage, activate one of your

it, roll away to avoid his stomp attack.
Malik has a new attack you must watch out for. After taking some damage, Malik
levitates above the platform and surges with energy. As he hovers above the platform,
quickly seek cover behind one of the four stone walls on the platforms perimeter. These
walls will protect you from the ensuing radial energy blast released by Malik. Simply
stand behind the wall until the blast and wait for Malik to return to the platform. 5
Appendix
Following the first energy blast, Malik drops to the platform and summons a small group
of spectres. Roll past the spectres and continue attacking Malik, rolling as necessary
to stay behind him. Avoid Maliks sword attacks and try to lure him into taking out the
spectres. Activating your trail of flame or ice blast power is also a good way to deal
with the spectres while dishing out damage to Malik. Keep up the attack until Malik
levitates above the platform again and then seek cover behind one of the walls. If any
spectres are still alive, the incoming energy blast will take them out.
Repeat the same steps as Malik performs his energy blast and conjures more spectres
and wraiths. Roll behind him and attack his legs. If you start taking heavy damage,
either from Malik or his minions, activate the stone armor power to give you temporary
protection against all attacks. This allows you to focus on Malik without worrying about
taking damage from the nearby enemies. Still, watch out for his stomp and energy
blast attacks, taking evasive actions as necessary.
If you stand behind one of the stone walls, Malik will not follow, instead attacking with his sand projectile attack from a
distance. However, the other enemies will follow you. Stand behind one of the walls to shelter yourself from Maliks attacks
and take on the spectres and wraiths one at a time.
primagames.com 109
When Maliks health drops below 50%, his next energy blast
causes the perimeter of the platform to crumble. In the
cutscene that follows, the Prince slides off the crumbling
platform, gripping a pole at the last second to break his fall
and dropping to a nearby platform. You need to find a way
to get back to the platform where you were fighting Malik
and finish this fight.
Beyond this small platform a vulture hovers in the

distance. Jump toward the vulture then execute a
dash attack to grab onto the bird. From the vulture,
simply jump to the next platform and immediately
attack a small group of wraiths, kicking as many off
the side of the platform as possible.
Once youve finished off the wraiths, jump and dash toward
the next vulture hovering in the distance. Jump from the first
vulture, then dash to a second vulture, eventually leaping onto
the nearby pole. Swing and jump from the pole and then dash
toward a third vulture. From there you can reach another small
Walkthrough
platform occupied by more wraiths.
As you did on the previous platform, focus on kicking

these wraiths off the side. But be careful when performing
rolls or aerial slashesthere isnt much room to maneuver
here. Instead use kicks and basic sword attacks to deal
with these enemies. If you have energy to spare, a
whirlwind attack here will send all the wraiths flying off the
platform, however, its best to save your energy for later.
Now that the wraiths are defeated, resume your advance by

leaping to the nearby pole and then swing, jump, and dash
to the nearby vulture. From the vulture, jump to the next pole
and then swing, jump, and dash to a second vulture. Jump
and dash to a third vulture, then jump and dash toward the
lone wraith standing on the next platform. After eliminating this
wraith, no others appear. Smash the vases on the platform and
resume your ascent.
Jump to the next pole and again swing, jump, and dash to the
nearby vulture. Continue jumping and dashing from one vulture
to the next until you can return to the large platform where Malik
is still standing. Instead of simply jumping to the platform, jump
and execute a dash attack toward Malik. This temporarily blinds
him, allowing you to score some easy hits as he flails about.

This time its just you and Malik. Stay behind him and slash away at his legs. If you still
have energy, activate the ice blast or trail of flame powers to inflict extra damage. Or 1
if you want to blind Malik again, use a whirlwind attack. Keep up the pressure until Malik

As you step into the large chamber ahead, a swarm of scarabs emerges from a hole
in the floor. These large insects arent particularly difficult to defeat, dying after one hit
with your sword. However, scarabs attack in viscous swarms, immediately surrounding
you. To avoid taking damage, activate your stone armor power and start slashing away.
If youve used stone armor in previous fights, eliminating the scores of scarabs here
can easily earn you the Prince of Earth achievement/trophy, requiring you to defeat 50
enemies while stone armor is active. Continue performing basic sword attack combos
until all the scarabs are eliminated. Afterward, smash the vases found on the chambers
perimeter to stock up on health and energy.
Approach this lever on the far side of the chamber. Moving this
lever causes the center piece of the nearby statue to rotate.
Continue rotating it until the staff in the statues left hand is
reassembled. This causes a massive pair of staircases to emerge
from the chambers floor, leading up to the balcony above
where a similar statue is positioned.
Climb either set of stairs to reach the balcony and approach the
next statue. Moving the lever here causes the two center pieces
in the statue to rotate. The goal here is the sameto reassemble
the staff in the statues left hand. To rotate the two pieces
independently of each other, freeze the water spout pouring down
the front side of the statue. While holding down the freeze button,
Walkthrough
move the lever. As the arms on one piece make contact with the
column, it refuses to rotate, allowing the other piece to move independently. Use this method to assemble to two pieces of
the staff, just below the statues left hand.
Once the two pieces of the staff are assembled, release the
freeze button and rotate both pieces into position beneath the
statues left hand, aligning it with the top and bottom portions of
the staff. This activates a series of intermittent water spouts high
above the chamber.
Freeze and leap across the two nearby water spouts to reach
a stone column suspended from the ceiling. Next, wait for the
water spout on the left to activatefreeze it and jump to the
column. The next series of water spouts are never active at the
same time, so as you leap from one column, release the freeze
button momentarily and wait for the next water spout to activate
before using the freeze power again. Then grip the newly formed column before you fall. Move along the series of columns until
you can jump to the next platform where another large statue
puzzle awaits.
All three pieces of this next statue rotate when you push the lever.
Freeze the water spout and then move the lever to rotate each
piece independently. Assemble the bottom two pieces first, then
move them into position on the statues left, forming the bottom
part of the staff. Finally, freeze the water spout and rotate the
top piece until the staff is completed. This causes the stairs in the
middle of the chamber to collapse, giving way to a massive spiral
staircase that winds around the perimeter of a deep cylindrical
shaft. This must be the entrance to the Djinn city.

Perform a horizontal wall run over to the nearby banner and slide down to the floor.
Before accessing the spiral staircase, search the chambers perimeter for intact 1

plummeting down the shaft at a high rate of speed. As you slide
down this ramp, stay near the outer wall. As you near the end of
the ramp, execute a horizontal wall run along the outer wall to

Despite all that hes witnessed, the Prince still cant accept that Malik is gone. But Razia
reiterates that it is Ratash who controls Malik now, and he must be stopped. The special

represent the leaders of the four tribes of the Djinn. When King Solomon
formed his empire, he allied with the four tribes of Djinn and together they
created cities the likes of which the world had never seen. Razias people
specialized in water, creating aqueducts and bringing life to the desert. But some Djinn resented working with the humans. Ratash
was one of the Djinn who rebelled against the alliance, using his powers to create the sand army. The four tribes of Djinn joined
forces with King Solomon to repel Ratashs army. But many died before a way was found to confine the army within the seal. Few
Djinn survived the battle with the sand army, and those that did moved far away. Razia agreed to stay behind and guard the
reservoir, supplying Solomons kingdom with water.

Walkthrough
The door ahead is locked, but Razia can open it. However, first you must defeat a
swarm of scarabs and a troll. Activate your stone armor, roll behind the troll, and slash
at its legs. As you swing at the troll, nearby scarabs are hit, too. The trolls attacks also
are likely to take out several scarabs. Your stone armor will protect you against the
scarabs, so focus on damaging the troll.
Deploying a whirlwind attack here can eliminate most of the scarabs while temporarily blinding the troll. If youre still
chasing after the Prince of Wind achievement/trophy, this is another good spot to score some easy whirlwind kills.
When the trolls health drops below 50%, he slumps to the

ground. While standing near the troll, jump to initiate an aerial
slash finishing move. As the Prince leaps into the air, press
the attack button when his sword flashes. If your timing is just
right, the Prince drives his sword into the trolls chest, reducing
him to dust. Once the troll is down for the count, smash the
nearby vases to stock up on health and energy, then pass
through the doorway Razia just opened.

The armored chargers will only become stunned if they slam into a wall at full speed.
Stand with your back against one of the perimeter walls and lure one or both armored
chargers into running at you. At the last moment, roll out of the way as they run into the
wall. When the armored chargers are stunned, they crouch and remain motionless for
a few seconds. Take this opportunity to hit them with power attacksthis is the only way
to inflict damage, and this is the safest time to do it. But while attacking one stunned
armored charger, keep an eye on the other to avoid getting surprised. Also, when the
stunned armored charger regains his composure, he pounds his fists into the ground, creating a radial shockwave. Roll out of the
way before he can initiate this attack.
Once youve stunned one armored charger, lure the second one into running
into his buddy. Simply stand behind the stunned armored charger, using his
body as a shield. The resulting collision damages the stunned armored charger

In the next chamber, youre ambushed by several wraiths, scarabs, and two
summoners. Immediately activate your stone armor and begin swinging away at the
scarabs surrounding you. Once all the scarabs have been eliminated, turn on the
summoners, kicking them both to the ground and stabbing them. Finally, clear out the
remaining wraiths. If you have the energy to spare, activate your ice blast power to lay
waste to these enemies in record time. By now you should have enough ice blast kills

Speed is essential when racing toward the vault door. To pick up the pace, jump across the poles as quickly as possible
without performing a full rotation on each pole. Swinging on the poles is unnecessary and only slows you down.
Inside the vault, the sword Razia spoke of earlier is embedded

in a demonic-looking skull. The Prince pulls the sword free and
hopes Malik will forgive him for what he must do.

In the next room, a trio of summoners appear on a balcony and conjure a small army
of spectres and ghouls. Activate your trail of flame power and start rolling across the
floor to eliminate the enemies, focusing primarily on the ghouls. As the ghouls are
eliminated, they wont be replaced by the summoners. Instead, the summoners only
conjure more spectres.
Fight the instinct to go after the summoners right away.

Instead, let them continue spawning spectres on the
floor, giving you an almost endless group to slaughter.
Using the Razia sword, slice through one spectre after

attack until youve eliminated the 50 requisite spectres.
When youve had enough of the spectres, turn to the circular

switch on the rooms perimeter wall. Wall run up the wall to
activate the switch, revealing a second switch on the opposite
side of the room. Activate this second switch with another
vertical wall run to drop a golden pole switch from the ceiling.

After defeating the summoners and spectres on the balcony, feel free to return to the floor below and finish off the
remaining spectres. To get back to the balcony, jump back onto the pole switch, then jump and dash toward the

In the next room, leap to a large chandelier suspended from the ceiling. In the
cutscene that follows, a charger appears below and slams into the wall, causing
the chandelier to sway violently. The Prince eventually falls to the floor below and is
surrounded by several ghouls and two chargers. As you regain control of the Prince,
activate your trail of flame power and roll through the ghouls while keeping an eye on
the two chargers. Once the ghouls are eliminated, take out the chargers one by one,
attacking once each one stuns himself by running into a wall.
After the fight, wall run up this cracked pillar in the corner of the

wall, perform a vertical wall run and then jump to the wooden
post behind you.
From the post, jump to the circular switch on the nearby wall.
This opens the door on the balcony behind you. As soon
as you touch the switch, jump back to the post, then leap
to the nearby balcony, rolling through the open doorway
before its sealed.

After gripping the ledge, drop to the

ledge below and shimmy to the left.
Execute a horizontal wall run toward
the closing door. When you land on
the platform below, roll through the
doorway before it closes.
In the next large chamber, three summoners appear along with

several ghouls and a troll. Stone armor works well in this battle,
protecting you from taking damage while attacking the ghouls
and summoners. Track down the summoners first and cut them
down with the Razia sword to stem the flow of reinforcements.
Next, finish off the ghouls, careful to avoid the trolls attacks.
When possible, try to lure the troll into swinging at a large group
of ghouls.

When the troll is the only enemy remaining, go to work by

slicing away at his legs. Remember, roll as necessary to stay 1
behind the troll and avoid his attacks. It only takes a few

swings of the Razia sword to drop the trolls health below 50%.
Wait for him to drop to a knee, then jump into the air to initiate
an aerial slash finisher. When the Princes sword flashes, press
the attack button to reduce the troll to sand. If you defeated
the previous four trolls with aerial slashes, you earn the David

Once the floor is clear of threats, step on one of the two
circular switches to activate a waterfall and water jet nearby.
Use your freeze power, then wall run up the frozen waterfall to
jump to the pole behind you. Reverse directions on the pole
and jump back toward the frozen waterfall. Upon contacting
the waterfall, execute a wall run, then jump to the next pole

Once inside the tower, you need to find a way

to reach the top in an effort to get above the
sandstorm. Start by stepping on the circular
switch on the floor at the middle of the room.
This activates a pair of waterfalls just ahead.
The ascent to the top of the tower is the

single most challenging platforming
sequence in the game. Before starting
the ascent, break all the vases lining the
perimeter wall to max out your energy.
Chances are youll need to rewind time
more than once during the climb.
To begin, stand between the two waterfalls and freeze them.

Walkthrough
Wall run up the frozen waterfall on the right, then jump to the
frozen waterfall on the left. As you make contact, wall run up
the frozen waterfall on the left and jump back to the frozen
waterfall on the right. As you contact the frozen waterfall on the
right, simply jump back to the left, releasing the freeze button in
midair. This allows you to pass through the waterfall on the left.
As soon as you fly through the waterfall, press the freeze button
again to grip the nearby pole. Swing and jump across the two
poles until you reach the post sticking out of the perimeter wall.
Two waterfalls stand between you and the next water jet. Jump
through the waterfall on the right, then press the freeze button
in midair. As you contact the frozen waterfall on the left, jump
back to the frozen waterfall on the right. From there, jump back
to the left and release the freeze button in midair to pass through
the left waterfall. After passing through the waterfall on the left,
immediately press the freeze button to grab the pole, then swing
and jump to the nearby balcony. Note, there are no vertical wall
runs performed in this maneuver, just jumps. If you perform a
vertical wall run on either frozen waterfall, it will take you too high,
putting you beyond the reach of the frozen water jet.
Proceed along the perimeter wall, leaping across posts,

frozen poles, and a balcony until you reach the next two
waterfalls. Once again, dont use wall runs during this
sequence. Jump through the waterfall on the right and
then use your freeze power. Jump off the frozen waterfall
to the left, to move back to the right. Then jump off the
frozen waterfall to the right and release the freeze button to
pass through the waterfall on the left, landing on the post
beyond.

Up to this point, youve been merely circling around the

towers perimeter wall, gaining no altitude. Now its time to go
up. While standing on the post, freeze the nearby waterfall 1
and the three water jets above. Jump to the frozen waterfall
Introduction
and then execute a vertical wall run and jump to the first pole
behind you. Reverse directions on the pole and jump back to
the frozen waterfall. Once again, initiate a vertical wall run on
the frozen waterfall, then jump to the second pole. Reverse
directions again and jump back to the frozen waterfall. Wall
run up the frozen waterfall, then jump to the third pole, finally
swinging and jumping to the balcony on the right. This is a 2
long sequence, so keep an eye on the blue meter. If it begins

running low, release the freeze button momentarily during
jumps to give it a chance to refill.
Now comes the hard part. From the balcony, jump across
a post and then jump across a frozen pole to the next
post, coming to rest near a set of three waterfalls. For this
next sequence, keep your finger off the wall run button
completelyit will only complicate things. The goal here is
to pass through the three waterfalls to reach the water spout
beyond them. But a simple jump will not suffice. Instead,
jump through the left and middle waterfalls and then press
the freeze button. As you contact the frozen waterfall on the 3
right, jump back to the frozen waterfall in the middle. Press the
The Sand Army

jump button no more than four times during this sequence
hopping between the middle and left frozen waterfalls. On the
fourth jump away from the middle waterfall, release the freeze
button and pass through the waterfall on the right. As soon as
you clear the waterfall, press the freeze button again to grip the water column formed from the water spout. But dont pat yourself
on the back yet.
Slide toward the bottom of the column and

prepare for your advance through the next three
waterfalls. Jump and release the freeze button to 4
pass through the leftmost waterfall. As you pass
Walkthrough
through the left waterfall, press the freeze button
again before contacting the middle waterfall.
Jump from the middle frozen waterfall back to
the left, then jump again back to the right. This
time release the freeze button to pass through
the middle waterfall, then press the freeze button

to the left, then jump again to the right. Once

again, release the freeze button as you pass

clear of the last waterfall, press the freeze button
again to grab the column formed from another water spout. This is a difficult maneuver, so be ready to rewind time back to the
previous column if necessaryand keep your finger off the wall run button.
From the frozen column, jump to the nearby pole switch to

the right and then swing and jump to the post ahead. The
pole switch activated another waterfall and series of water
jets. Hold on the post for a few seconds if necessary to catch
your breath before continuing.
primagames.com 145
Study the water jet directly above the post and press the
freeze button when the water jet activates. Next, jump to the
frozen waterfall on the right, execute a vertical wall run, then
jump to the first pole behind you. As you did on the other
side of the room, reverse directions on the first pole and jump
back to the frozen waterfall. Wall run up the frozen waterfall
and jump toward the second water jet on the left. As soon as
you jump from the frozen waterfall, release the freeze button
momentarily, waiting for the second water jet to activate
before pressing the freeze button again. Once you grab the
second pole, swing and jump toward the third water jet on the
left. Release the freeze button in midair and wait for the third
water jet to activate before pushing the freeze button again.
Swing and jump from the third pole toward the next balcony.
Youve finally reached the top of this lower chamber. Now you just need to reach the
balcony on the other side. Step on the circular switch on the floor to activate a series
of waterfalls and water spouts between you and the balcony. Thats right, you need to
cross these varied water features to reach the other side. Fortunately, you just hit a save
checkpoint on the balcony.
While still standing on the circular switch, press

the freeze button. Step out onto the nearby post
and jump onto the frozen column just ahead.
While on the column, climb up a few feet before
executing the next jump. For this next sequence,
Walkthrough
keep your finger off the wall run button. Instead,

employ simple jumps to bounce between the
frozen waterfalls.
There are four frozen waterfalls between you and the

next frozen column. For the purpose of this walkthrough
sequence, theyre numbered in the order you encounter
them, from right to left. Start by jumping through the first
waterfall, releasing the freeze button to pass through it. But
then press the freeze button again before contacting the
second waterfall and then jump back to the first one.
Jump from the first frozen waterfall back to the left. Release
the freeze button in midair, passing through the second
waterfall, then press the freeze button again to contact the
third waterfall. Jump from the third frozen waterfall back to
the second, then jump back to the left. This time pass through
the third waterfall (releasing the freeze button) and press the
freeze button to contact the fourth waterfall.

Jump from the fourth frozen waterfall back to the third, then
jump back to the left. Release the freeze button to pass 1

column on the other side. Slide down the column until youre
within jumping distance of the nearby balcony on the left and
make the final leap. Whew! You made it!

As you step out onto the walkway beyond the balcony,
Ratash (in the form of Malik) appears in the distance. The
sandstorm has increased his power and size, causing him
to grow taller than the palaces towers.
The spiral walkway circling around the towers exterior is crammed with
wraiths. Use the Razia sword to slice your way through the opposition while
continuing your ascent. While it may be tempting to race past these 3

enemies, take the time to finish them off as theyre a good source of
health and energy. Plus, they fall rather quickly thanks to the Razia sword.
At the end of the spiral walkway, the Prince ducks back

inside the tower in an attempt to avoid being noticed
by Ratash. Fortunately, there are several vultures inside
to aid in your advance. Begin by jumping to the nearby
vulture, then freeze the nearby water jet before leaping
toward the pole. Continue jumping and dashing across 4
the series of vultures, working your way up the inside of

on the left to grip the railing of the balcony and pull
yourself to the top.
As the Prince steps onto the balcony, the ceiling of the

tower begins to crumble. Smash the nearby vases,
then jump and dash to the nearby vulture. Continue
spiraling upward through the towers interior, jumping
and dashing from one vulture to the next. Along the way,
create and grip a couple of frozen columns during the
ascent. Youll need to swing across a couple of poles
and dash through a wraith on a balcony, too.
primagames.com 147
When you near a set of three waterfalls, jump from the vulture to the nearby exposed bricks on the towers perimeter wall. Climb
to the left on the bricks, nearing the waterfall closest to the wall. Freeze the waterfall, then perform a vertical wall run across the
nearby frozen waterfall. As the Prince slows and turns, jump from the frozen waterfall, then release the freeze button. As you pass
through the next two waterfalls, press the dash button to zoom to the nearby vulture. Jump and dash toward the next vulture, then
through a wraith on the next balcony.
Before continuing down the next corridor, smash all the

vases on this balcony to stock up on health and energy.
Youre nearing the end now, so this is one of your last
chances to replenish your health meter and energy orbs
before the final battle.
Walkthrough
As the Prince races through the next corridor, the walls, ceiling,
and floor begin to crumble. Before long, Ratash looms above,
staring down at the Prince. There is no sign of Malik now
Ratash is back, and more powerful than ever. Suddenly Ratash
unleashes a violent roar, sending the Prince (and the floor hes
standing on) flying through the air.
The Prince finds himself aloft in the sandstorm,

floating among walls, floors, and towers ripped
from the palace. He eventually lands on a solid
platform and is immediately surrounded by
several wraiths and spectres. Cut down these
enemies with the Razia sword and absorb all the
yellow, red, and blue spheres they have to offer.
Once youve eliminated all the wraiths and spectres, jump

and dash toward the vulture hovering in the distance. Jump
and dash across a total of five vultures to advance through
the sandstorm. As youre dangling from the fifth vulture, wait
for a circular platform to move into view, then jump to it.

A mix of wraiths, spectres, and ghouls appear as soon as you

reach the circular platform. Resist the urge to activate a power. 1
Save your energy for later. Instead, eliminate these enemies with

basic sword attacks. With Razias help, these enemies dont stand
a chance.
If you level up and earn an upgrade point during these

fights in the sandstorm, upgrade your stone armor to
extend the duration of the power. This will prove extremely
useful once you reach Ratash.

After the fight, locate another vulture hovering in the distance and jump and dash
toward it. Continue jumping and dashing across four more vultures. When you reach
the final vulture in this set, jump toward the tiled platform below.
As you set foot on this platform, Ratash can be seen moving 3

in the distance. But for now turn your attention to the group of
The Sand Army

wraiths, spectres, and ghouls surrounding you. Once again, cut
down these enemies with basic sword attacks and absorb the
XP, health, and energy they provide.
Following the fight, Ratash smacks the

platform, causing the Prince to slide across the
floor. As you reach the edge of the floor, jump 4
and dash toward the vulture hovering in the
Walkthrough
distance. The visibility is very poor, but continue
jumping and dashing across two more
vultures, eventually jumping to another sloped
platform. The Prince begins sliding as soon as
he lands. Simply slide toward the end of the
platform, then jump and dash across another pair of vultures.
After dashing to the second vulture, jump down to this platform 5

and prepare yourself for another fight as more wraiths,
Appendix
spectres, and ghouls emerge from the floor. Slice through

the opposition with a few basic combos, then get ready for
another ride as Ratash smacks the platform, causing you
to slide toward the edge. Before falling off the edge of the
platform, jump and dash toward another vulture.
During the next sequence, continue jumping and dashing across

a series of vultures and sliding across a few platforms. There is
also a spire from a tower you can use as a pole. Swing and
jump from the spire toward the next set of vultures, jumping and
dashing toward the next platform.
If you miss a jump during this sequence, rewind time

and try again. But be careful not to expend too much
energy by rewinding timeyoull need that energy
for the final fight. If youre down to less than four
energy orbs, consider falling and restarting the whole
sequence from the last save checkpoint. This is better
than reaching the final fight with low energy.
primagames.com 149
Get ready for another fight as you jump onto this platform. Youre
nearing the finale, so play it safe, making sure youre not injured
by the attacks of the wraiths, spectres, and ghouls. Also, avoid
using any powers, hoarding that energy for the final battle.
Continue navigating through the sandstorm

by jumping and dashing to the nearby set
of vultures. During this final sequence, you
must jump and dash across several vultures,
swing from a set of two poles, and slide
down a couple of sloped platforms. Youll
know youve reached the end when you
spot this large platform below.
More wraiths, spectres, and ghouls materialize on this platform,

but they dont stand a chance. Still, dont get overconfident. Take
these enemies out one at a time, denying them the chance
to land some cheap blows. This is the last fight before the final
battle, so do your best to end it with full health and energy.
Once youve eliminated all the enemies, Ratash smacks the
platform, sending the Prince flying through the air. For reaching
the final battle you automatically earn the Eye of the Storm
achievement/trophy.
Walkthrough
The Prince eventually lands on a large stable platform, but the

trouble has just begun. Ratash appears nearby and conjures
a small army of wraiths, spectres, and ghouls. Now its time to
put some of that stored energy to use. Activate the stone armor
power and aggressively attack the enemies on the platform.
Dont worry about Ratash for now, just focus on wiping out every
wraith, spectre, and ghoul before your stone armor disappears.
Try to complete this final battle without taking any damage to earn the Invincible achievement/trophy. This is relatively
easy if you own all eight energy slots and have upgraded stone armor to level 4. This allows you to keep stone armor
active throughout most of the battle, making you invincible.
After defeating the enemies, Ratash

approaches the platform and initiates a series
of attacks. Stand in the center of the platform
and closely watch his arms. His most common
attack is a one-handed smashif he hits you
with this attack its game over. So whenever he
raises one arm above his head, prepare to roll
out of the way. If he raises his left arm, roll to the
right. If he raises his right arm, roll to the left.

Following each one-handed smash attack,

Ratash is open to retaliation for a brief
1
Introduction
moment. Take this opportunity to attack the
glowing medallion on his chestthis is his one
and only weak spot. If you rolled in the proper
direction prior to his attack, you should already
be in close proximity to the medallion, allowing
you to score two or three hits before he moves
away. But dont get greedy. When he backs
away, move back to the center of the platform 2
and prepare to dodge his next attack.

Thanks to Razias magic, it doesnt take many hits to inflict some
serious damage on Ratash. When his health drops below 75%,
Ratash recoils in pain and steps back from the platform. This
time he initiates a new ranged attack, firing blasts of energy at
the Princes feet. Initially these attacks cause no damage, but
roll away before the glowing sections of the platform explode.
For best results, roll around the perimeter of the platform. This will 3
prevent you from rolling into an explosion, placing you one step

ahead of Ratashs attacks.
Next, Ratash conjures another group of wraiths,

spectres, and ghouls. Activate your stone armor
and go to work, but continue to watch Ratash.
Hell resume his projectile attacks as you battle 4
these enemies, so be ready to roll out of the
Walkthrough
way to avoid an explosion. These explosions
can work to your advantage, taking out a few
of the enemies for you. Just make sure youre
a safe distance away from the explosions,
especially once your stone armor has worn off.
5
Appendix
Once all the enemies are eliminated, return to the center of

the platform and carefully watch Ratashs arms. At this point
he favors a lateral swipe attack, swatting at the Prince with his
huge hands. You can spot the wind-up of this incoming attack
when he moves either arm to his side. The best way to avoid
this attack is with a rolland be sure to roll into the direction of
the attack to pass underneath his hand. So if he swipes at you
with his left hand, roll to the right. If he swipes at you with his
right hand, roll to the left.
Another attack you need to watch out for is Ratashs

two-handed smash. When he raises both fists above his head,
quickly roll to the left or right edge of the platform to avoid
getting hit. This attack is devastating, so make sure you get out
of the way, otherwise you may need to start the whole battle
over. Stone armor can prevent you from taking damage from
this and Ratashs other attacks, but it wont prevent you from
getting knocked down.
primagames.com 151
Continue looking for opportunities to slash away at the

medallion on Ratashs chest. One of the best chances is when
he leans forward, with his left and right arms sprawled across
the platform. This puts his chest within easy striking range. Roll
toward the medallion and slash away. But be sure to activate
stone armor before you rush forward. As Ratash grips the
platform he emits a shock of electricity that emanates from
his hands, chest, and mouth. Theres a slight pause before he
initiates this attack, giving you a few precious seconds to land
some devastating hits. If you can reduce his health below 50%,
hell recoil in pain and back away from the platform before
performing his powerful electrical attack. Still, its a good idea
to activate the stone armor just in casegetting hit by the
electricity will most likely kill you.
Keep evading Ratashs attacks while looking for

opportunities to strike back. When his health drops
to 25%, Ratash conjures a troll. Roll between the
trolls legs to avoid the trolls incoming club attack,
then slash the troll from behind. Dont worry about
performing an aerial slash finisher on this guy. Once
he slumps to the ground, keep hacking away at him
until hes reduced to dust.
Walkthrough
Once youve finished off the troll, get ready to dodge more
projectile attacks while taking on more wraiths, spectres, and
ghouls. These enemies may seem like a nuisance, but theyre
very beneficial, allowing you to score more health and energy.
However, dont take your eyes off Ratash. He may initiate a
series of swipe attacks, so be ready to roll in the direction of
each open-handed swat and beneath his hand. You can
dodge these attacks but your enemies cant, so dont hesitate
to let Ratash do the dirty work for you.
Wait for Ratash to drop another one-handed smash, then

rush over to his medallion and slash away. You wont be
able to kill him yet, but keep swinging your sword until he
backs away from the platform.
As he steps away, six vultures appear nearby, hovering between

the platform and Ratash. Move toward the center of the platform
and align yourself with the two vultures forming a trail toward
Ratashs medallion. Jump and dash to the first vulture, then jump
and dash to the second vulture to initiate the final cutscene.

The Prince leaps from the final vulture toward Ratash, sinking the Razia sword deep
into the medallion on his chest. Energy surges through Ratashs body as the final blow 1
lands, eventually causing him to disintegrate in a blinding explosion. Defeating Ratash
Introduction
earns you the End of the Army achievement/trophy. If you managed to complete this
final fight without taking any damage you also earn the Invincible achievement/trophy.
Finishing the game also unlocks the Challenge Mode, giving you the chance to show
off your combat skills in an arena-like setting.

Epilogue

As Razia promised, her Djinn magic was the
only way to defeat Ratash, but its unclear
what became of her. When the Prince awakes
on a platform, the Razia sword rests nearby
but remains silent. But then the Prince notices
something else on the platformits Malik! Hes
still alive, but just barely. Malik apologizes to his
younger brother for not listening, finally realizing
that the Prince was right all along. The Prince
offers to get help, but Malik resists, knowing he 3
cant be saved. Instead, Malik wants the Prince
The Sand Army

to know how grateful he is to him for saving the
kingdom. As Malik passes, he no longer doubts
the leadership capabilities of his little brother.
While the palace guards that were turned into
sand statues come back to life, there is no such
hope for Malik. The curse of the sand army has been lifted, but at a great cost to the Prince and his family.
Walkthrough
Stick around after the games credits for a brief cutscene
detailing the events immediately following Ratashs defeat.
Unable to communicate with Razia, the Prince returns the
sword to Rekem. If Razia is still part of the sword, it only seems
right that shes returned to the city she called home. Plus, the
Prince cannot bear to keep the sword with him.

Appendix
Leaving the city in the hands of Maliks loyal advisors, the

Prince heads for Babylon to deliver the sad news to his father.
It is during this journey to Babylon that the events of Prince of
Persia: The Two Thrones begin.
primagames.com 153
Challenge Mode
Completing the game unlocks Challenge Mode. Here you can show off your combat skills in an arena setting, taking on multiple
waves of enemies. In all there are three different Challenge Mode variants, each with slightly different rules and unlock criteria, but
they all require you to make the most of the skills and powers youve attained over the course of the game. Do you have what it
takes to survive?
Enemy Tide
Unlock Criteria: Complete the game
Description: Defeat increasingly difficult waves of enemies to complete the challenge.
Wave 1
Walkthrough-Challenge Mode
Enemy Tide is automatically unlocked

when you complete the game and
requires you to face off against eight
consecutive waves of enemies. The
first wave is simple warm up, pitting you
against a group of wraiths and ghouls.
Note that you no longer have the Razia
sword in this fight or any of the Challenge
Mode levels, so plan accordingly. You do,
however, have all the health and energy
slots you ended the game with, so put
those powers to use. This group is easy to
defeat with the trail of flame power. You
must defeat every enemy on the floor
before the next wave commences.
Wave 2
In the second wave, youre attacked by a swarm of
scarabs as well as several wraiths and ghouls. Stone
armor serves you well in this fight, allowing you to defeat
the scarab swarm without taking any damage. Once the
scarabs are eliminated, turn to the wraiths and ghouls and
finish them off with basic sword attacks.
Wave 3
The third wave consists solely of scarabs. You should still have
plenty of energy to spare, so activate the stone armor power
again and lay waste to these insects. Before defeating the
last scarab, consider smashing some of the vases on the
rooms perimeter to stock up on health and energy.

Wave 4
In the first half of wave four, youre confronted by a single
charger. Lure him into a nearby wall and then slash away at
1
Introduction
him while hes stunned. But dont get greedy. Retreat when
he regains his composure to avoid the shockwave when he
punches the ground. Wait until hes stunned again before
moving in for the kill.

After defeating the first charger, a second one appears along
with several wraiths. Back up against a wall and let the wraiths
surround you. Then, as the charger races toward you, roll out
of the way, letting him smash into the large group of wraiths.
Repeat this until there are no more wraiths, then attack the
charger while hes stunned.
Wave 5
There also are two phases to the fifth wave, starting off 3
with one armored charger. Get this guy to run into a wall
The Sand Army

at full speed and hack away at him while hes stunned.
Once the first armored charger is out of the way, a second
one appears along with a large group of wraiths. As in the
previous wave, let the armored charger take out the wraiths
for you. When its just you and the armored charger, lure
him into a wall and take him out with sword attacks.
Walkthrough
Wave 6
The sixth wave consists of a large group of wraiths and
spectres. To wipe out these guys fast, call on your most
advanced offensive power. Ice blast, trail of flame, and
whirlwind powers are all very effective in this fight, so pick
the one youve upgraded the most and stick with it until the
floor is clear. 5
Appendix
Wave 7
Activate the stone armor power at the start of the seventh
wave to protect you from the swarm of scarabs. Theyre
joined by a few spectres. Hack through all the scarabs while
your stone armor is active, then turn on the spectres, using
sword combos and power attacks to wipe them out.
primagames.com 155
Wave 8
The eighth and final wave is headlined by a troll, and
backed up by small army of spectres. Start by activating the
trail of flame power and roll through the group of spectres
while avoiding the trolls club attacks. This is a great way
to inflict damage while remaining mobile. Once all the
spectres are gone, roll behind the troll and hack at his legs
until his health drops to 50%. When he slumps to the ground,
perform an aerial slash finisher to end the battle. Surviving
and completing Enemy Tide earns you the Prince of Tides
achievement/trophy. Now try it again and see if you can
post a faster time. Can you defeat all eight waves in under
four minutes?
Time Trial
Unlock Criteria: Purchase from the Uplay menu for 40 Uplay points
Description: Defeat a large number of enemies within a time limit to complete the challenge.
The Time Trial mode can be purchased

for 40 Uplay points. If youve finished the
game, you already have more than
enough Uplay points to buy this mode.
But if youve accumulated Uplay points
from other Ubisoft games, you may
have enough in your account before
completing The Forgotten Sands. This
Walkthrough
plays out similar to Enemy Tide, pitting you

against multiple waves of enemies on the
floor of the Rekem temple. But the waves
arent numbered as they are in Enemy
Tide. The goal here is to eliminate all 250
enemies as fast as possible. The timer on
the right indicates how long youve been
playing while the counter above it shows
how many more enemies are left.
As in Enemy Tide, each wave of enemies becomes

progressively more difficult. Health and energy can be
attained by defeating enemies or by smashing the vases
found around on the temples perimeter, so dont horde your
energy. Use your powers to gain the upper hand and cut
through wave after wave as quickly as possible. As you near
the end, a troll emerges from the floor. Defeat all the other
enemies on the floor, then go after the troll to complete the
battle. Defeating the 250 enemies in the Time Trial is a great
way to rack up XP so you can purchase all the upgrades to
earn the Completist achievement/trophy. There is no special
reward for posting a certain time, but keep playing this
mode to see if you can top your personal best.

Survival
Unlock Criteria: Input code from select retailers.
1
Introduction
Description: Your health decreases as you fight. Enemies release health as you defeat them. Be the last one left standing!
If you pre-ordered the game or purchased

it from a specific retailer, you may have
received a special code that unlocks the
Survival mode. Input this code in the Extras
menu under Unlock Code optionyou
must be logged in to Xbox Live or the 2
Playstation Network to successfully input

the code. Survival is the most challenging
of the three modes as your health bar
decreases over time, even if you dodge
every enemy attack. In addition to having
a health bar that depletes over time,
you begin the battle with no energy. To
replenish your health and energy you must
defeat enemies or smash the vases on the
rooms perimeter.
In all, there are 100 enemies that attack in progressively

more difficult waves. Early on, the enemies are rather 3
weak, consisting primarily of wraiths. This allows you
The Sand Army

to build up your health and energy before the more
challenging enemies appear. However, the constant
drain on your health leaves little room for error. While its
a good idea to play it safe to avoid getting hit, you also
need to defeat the enemies as quickly as possible. As
in the other modes, this one ends with the appearance
of a troll. If you have enough energy, activate the stone
armor power to avoid taking damage during this final
confrontation. Eliminate all the wraiths, spectres, and 4
ghouls on the floor first, then set your sights on the troll. There is no special reward for completing this mode, but you do

earn XP from the defeated enemies, putting you closer to the Completist achievement/trophy.
