Terebilov in 1994. This version offers a fresh take on the classic platformer by introducing altered level designs and increased difficulty.​    4D Prince of Persia (DOS)    While the game's introduction and initial aesthetics remain faithful to Jordan Mechner's 1989 original, players quickly encounter more intricate and challenging level layouts. These modifications demand heightened precision and strategic planning, providing a novel experience even for seasoned players.    A distinctive feature of 4D Prince of Persia is its unconventional room linking, creating maze-like levels that defy traditional spatial logic. For instance, in level 4, moving above or below the starting room leads back to the same location, adding a layer of complexity to navigation.    Despite these innovative changes, some levels (specifically levels 7-10 and 12-13) remain unaltered from the original game. This blend of new challenges with familiar stages offers a balanced experience, catering to both newcomers and veterans of the series.    Overall, 4D Prince of Persia stands as a testament to the enduring appeal of the original game, providing fans with a fresh perspective and renewed challenges within the classic framework.
