The Rogue Prince of Persia Reviews
The Rogue Prince of Persia is a roguelike of great potential, with solid, compelling gameplay and an artistic treatment that is well suited to Ubisoft's historic franchise. However, Early Access highlights how important variety and content are in this genre of games. Its content is still immature and we look forward to seeing more of it.

The Rogue Prince of Persia drops our beloved Prince in the roguelike setting, bringing the familiar gameplay synonymous with the series to a bite-sized replayable experience. Currently, in early access, the game misses some bells and whistles but has a fun gameplay loop to bring you back. With the first big content update set to launch soon, we see nothing but greatness in the game’s future.
The Rogue Prince of Persia is far away from being done at this rate. It is currently in early access and the developer team, Evil Empire, pretty much listens to the feedback of the players. In fact, they are readying up some nice updates for a few issues, especially about slowdowns and getting the game optimized better. The game itself is fun if you are very much keen to playing 2D roguelike beat ‘em ups, but if you haven’t dived into the roguelike craze since it started, you might have problems getting used to how it plays and reacts to your choices.
While it's still in early access, there's already a fantastic foundation for Evil Empire to build upon with The Rogue Prince of Persia.
The Rogue Prince of Persia’s Early Access launch is a solid one. While there is a decided lack of content the core gameplay is fantastic and I cannot wait to see what this one turns into by version 1.0.
