What's this game about?

Sequel to Jordan Mechner's seminal Prince of Persia. The Prince returns to Persia to find that his bride-to-be doesn't recognise him and an imposter has taken his throne — set across 14 stages of rotoscoped animation, deadly traps, and the iconic time-pressure design. Designed (but not programmed) by Mechner, who handed the code off after the first game.
