"Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones" is the third installment in the "Sands of Time" trilogy, following "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time" and "Prince of Persia: Warrior Within." In this game, the Prince returns to Babylon after defeating the Empress of Time, but his journey takes a dark turn as he becomes infected by the Sands of Time, leading to the emergence of a darker alter ego known as the Dark Prince. The game explores the internal struggle between the two personalities as the Prince seeks to save his kingdom from a new threat.

**Gameplay:**
In "Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones," players control the Prince in a third-person perspective. The gameplay is a blend of acrobatic platforming, fast-paced combat, and time manipulation. The Prince's abilities include wall running, swinging on poles, and performing daring leaps to traverse the game's challenging environments.
The introduction of the Dark Prince adds a new dimension to the gameplay, as he wields a deadly chain blade and has unique abilities that complement the Prince's skills. Players must switch between the two personas strategically to overcome various obstacles and enemies throughout the game.
As players progress, they will encounter a mix of combat encounters, stealth segments, and environmental puzzles that require the use of both the Prince and the Dark Prince's abilities.
