Prince of Persia, an amazing game released in 1989 on the Apple II and ported to most platforms of the day but not the Commodore 64 for some reason.
In 2 days time the game is due to be released on the C64 in EasyFlash format, a cartridge format for the C64 but luckily Vice also supports it so I’ll be able to play it under emulation. Looks great doesn’t it?

I remember Prince of Persia getting rave reviews when it first came out all those years ago.
And the game has been released! Here’s a development blog, the csdb page and a review of the game with technical details. Interesting that the game uses 40KB for the main player’s sprites! Couldn’t have been done without the EasyFlash rom I guess.
I’ll be playing this tonight!
