In the co-composed soundtrack for Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown, the orchestral writing of Gareth Coker is combined with Mentrix’s unique fusion of vocals, electronics, and traditional Iranian instruments to create an exhilarating experience. The grandeur of the score is one to match the scope of the game’s setting and the intense combat the player must learn to survive; if you haven’t heard of this game before and have only listened to the music, you might be surprised to hear that The Lost Crown is a 2D Action Platformer! As it seems that 2D games have become underappreciated in recent years, it is exciting to see a newer release remind gamers that thrilling gameplay comes in many sizes (or should I say dimensions…). There is more music in this game than you might expect, but I hope you will check it out!
