PRINCE OF PERSIA (?) (?)
To skip levels hold down CAPS LOCK and press 'L'. This only works to level 4
and won't work on the bottle bit at the end of level 1. Keep pressing and
mucking around with RIGHT AMIGA, ALT and SHIFT. You should then warp to the
end of the level! (It only worked 3 times for me so be patient).
The following cheats also work, although it might be CAPS LOCK instead of
SHIFT:
SHIFT + 'K' to kill guard
SHIFT + '+' to add time
SHIFT + 'W' to levitate when falling
SHIFT + 'T' for full strength
SHIFT + 'L' for next level
These are some basic techniques for playing the game:
- When jumping, ALWAYS hold down the button. You will never know when you
shall slip or fall short of the jump. Also, make yourself as close as
possible to an edge before you jump so you can get maximum distance.
- When fighting, the most effective way is to use the standard block-and-hit
technique. To do this, wait till the opponent strikes, block by pressing
up, then immediately press the button and the character strike and get a
better chance of hitting the opponent.
- Inspect everyroom for secret passages. There are many in this game and you
will not be able to finish it without finding them. To find them, jump up
and down to look for any floor passages. Jump up and hit the ceiling to
look for any ceiling passages.
- Doors don't stay open forever. Once you step on a step-block, the doors
will start to close... That is unless something is on the step-block.
- Learn to distinguish step-blocks from the floor.
- After you complete each level (after Level 2), save the game. When you
die, restart by pressing CTRL + 'R' and then press CTRL + 'L' to resume
your game. This will allow you to save a lot of time considering that you
WILL die.
- Don't be afraid to explore. In order to win the game, you must explore
every detail of the game and not miss anything on any level.
HINTS:
Note: * means that there is an energy expander on that level.
LEVEL 1
Your first level is very easy. Get the sword, which is to the left from
where you start and then go to the exit which just to the right of where you
start. Practice your sword techniques on the guard. Remember to watch for
unstable floors.
LEVEL 2 *
Straightforward. Watch out for floor spikes. Beware of the blue potion which
will DECREASE your life count. There is an energy expander here so don't
forget to get it.
LEVEL 3 *
This will be one of the toughest levels. From where you start, go to the
right & climb to the top using the center segment. Now, you must do a jump
of faith to the right. You will find that there is a floor when you land.
You will also discover a step-block which will open the gate far to the
left. There is also a energy expander in the area to the right. When you are
ready, jump on the step-block and BURN RUBBER to the left! You will have
little time before the door starts to close. Do a running jump over the
large hole then one final jump near the door and hang on to that ledge.
Hopefully, the door will almost be closed so you can pull yourself up. After
that, it is very straightfoward. When you confront the 'LIVE' skeleton, keep
hitting until it falls off the ledge. Then climb down after it and keep
hitting it until it falls to it's doom.
LEVEL 4 *
Very straightforward. Watch out for loose floors & be sure to get the energy
expander. When you confront the mirror, you will have to execute a run-jump
through it. You will pass through but your shadow will come out the other
side and will create a lot of trouble for you.
LEVEL 5 *
Straightforward. There is an energy expander here but you will soon find out
what will happen to it. You will have to experiment with this level before
you can finish it.
LEVEL 6
Straightforward. Beware of the master guard (he is fat) for he will slice
you up if you are not good enough. At the end, your shadow will create
mischeif once more...
LEVEL 7 *
You start out falling so press the button to grab onto the ledge. Continue
onto the right until you reach the ledge with a large whole with another
ledge far to the right. Climb down the ledge, fall, and grab onto the ledge.
Contine to the right. If you can't continue, go back and fall down another
ledge for it will lead you to the same place. When you drink the blue
potion, the room will turn purple and you will turn green. Run off to the
left & you will float slowly down... DO NOT go into the exit because their
is an energy expander just to the right.
LEVEL 8
Straightforward but very hard. Be quick but be patient for a friend of the
princess will help you.
LEVEL 9 *
If you drink the blue potion, your vision will be distorted. To regain
normalness, find another blue potion and drink it. Be sure to get the energy
expander.
LEVEL 10
You will have to knock out many ceiling and floor blocks.
LEVEL 11 *
Very simple. Be sure to get the energy expander.
LEVEL 12
The last level. I will not provide you hints because it would truly take the
fun out of the game. You must use skill, agility, strength, courage, & trust
to get past the level.
Your probably stumped on the shadow. Remember, your shadow cannot harm you
in anyway. Altough it might seem to, it is really the sword that is harming
you. Just push the joystick up and you will put away your sword. Your shadow
will mimic you of course. Walk into your shadow and you will become one
person again. Your shadow is mearly a reflection of yourself & hence will
try mimic you. Then you will need to do a jump of faith to the left. I know
there is nothing there, but trust me. You have to do a running jump and
that's the only way to make it.
Continue on and you will do battle with your final opponent, Jaffar...
Jaffar is an awesome fighter. In order to beat him, you will need to use the
block-strike technique. Also be careful of the fallen board behind you.
Enter the final door and run to the princess.
