### 1/5 — POP UPDATE FOR IOS 11

*2018-09-08, version 2.0.1*

Are you ever going to update these games?  Where is POP Shadow and Flame that I purchased and beat as well as POP Classic that I also purchased and beat as well as in app purchases enough to play again.  It disappeared from my IPAD.  No where in the App store.  I purchased these games. The game completely disappeared after IOS 11 update. Unfair!  Please respond!  Terrible customer service!

### 1/5 — An update before it can't play anymore

*2017-06-13, version 2.0.1*

Like the game a lot, but was informed thar 32-bit games won't work with the update to iOS 11. Will there be an update before this happens, or will the money spent be gone in the fall?

### 3/5 — Good game, Horrible controls

*2016-01-22, version 2.0.1*

Game is good and enjoyable. Controls are frustrating... Can be improved!

### 2/5 — I feel like I wasted money

*2015-03-12, version 2.0.1*

I'm a huge fan of Prince of Persia. This game is frustrating to play even though the level maps are simple. The controls are almost unresponsive so it might take 20 minutes or longer to pass a level where you have to fight 2 times. If you are going to reuse characters from an existing game at least take the time to update them so they don't look blocky.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2014-09-12, version 2.0.1*

2 dollars for a bad remake and then you have to buy lives?! Not worth this garbage.

### 5/5 — Classic game of all time.

*2014-09-02, version 2.0.1*

Just like its name..classic

### 5/5 — Good'ol POP

*2014-08-14, version 2.0.1*

Once you get used to the controls this game plays very well. Brings back all the powerful memories of the original.

### 5/5 — Classic! All old games should port!

*2014-08-10, version 2.0.1*

This is a classic title, very well done for a port to the iPad. All old cartridge and CD based games from the 32-bit era and before should be ported to the tablet platform. 

The gameplay is phenomenal!

### 1/5 — Fun but glitchy

*2014-04-20, version 2.0.1*

Be prepared that you may need to delete and reinstall after the first few levels. The game just auto closes at some points
. Takes the fun out of it.

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2014-01-03, version 2.0.1*

It's a game I played as a kid a lot so very cool to now have on iPad
