Wii Virtual Console
Prince of Persia
Action, Platformer | Ubisoft | Rated:T | 800 points
The Grand Vizier Jaffar has thrown a young prince into the dungeon. Jaffar has forced the prince’s beloved to choose between marrying Jaffar or death. Take on the role of the prince and try to escape from the dungeon. Beware of obstacles such as unpredictable floors and ceilings, hidden spikes and walls of flames. Pass through invisible doors and walk through portals. Find bottles of magic potions, but partake of them wisely – they could increase your life or, just as easily, they might poison you. Survive all of the perilous levels, rescue the princess from the evil Jaffar and claim the royal residence before the hourglass is empty.

Mad about the …Hens that lay the golden eggs. Now this is true madness!!! Mission? Capture the hens that lay the golden eggs that are scattered around the world. How? By creating a giant tower tall enough to reach the clouds where the hens are. How to build the tower? Firstly: you must knock over some goats that rest on candy-made platforms scattered along the river. Secondly: fish out the goats you have knocked into the water. Finally, and this isn’t easy, stack the captured goats one on top of the other until you make the tower and can reach the hens that lay the golden eggs. With what? With a super high-powered speed boat, and a crane with a hook attached for fishing and building the tower. If you enjoy madcap adventures, do not hesitate to take the controls of our character Dundee the Mad Crocodile. Good luck!!!
