Have You Played… Prince Of Persia (1990)?

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time.

We’re 300 games into Have You Played now, and I thought I’d run out of titles I’ve played. As it turns out, there was a whole new seam of stuff waiting, ancient titles I played on my first PC, a humble 25MHz 486 SX. I’ve done Scorched Earth, Zool, Jazz Jackrabbit, Lemmings, Yoda Stories, DOS itself and there are more to come. It’s disorientating to be dredging those depths of my mind, but also a great pleasure to step back to a time before first-person shooting defined so much.
