Walkthrough for PRINCE OF PERSIA 4D LEVEL 3

Post by Minotaur »

So it seems that there's a lot of you having trouble with the third level of Prince of Persia 4D? Well if any of you want to complete the level - and the game without cheats, here's how:

From the start gate, climb to the top of the left hand tower. Walk to your left until the hole in the floor, and climb back down the other side of the tower. At the bottom, run to the far right (up to the wall) and allow yourself to fall with the loose slab. This is important - you MUST knock down the slab on the far right hand side- when this falls, it will permanently open a gate further on in the level. Drink a LEP if you require. To climb back up to floor level, jump and hit the slab above the left hand side of the platform with the health potion. The slab to the left of the hole you create is solid. Climb back up to floor level, and continue left to fight the skeleton. Be careful of the loose slab between you and him - things can get very tricky if you fall through the floor here. After knocking him off a ledge, climb up the tower and follow the path from here. For those of you who manage to get stuck on a one-way path, it's right from the top of the tower, jumping the two holes in the floor until the blue potion, up one level, then run left until you're close to the cutters, as there are three loose slabs. Here I'd advise walking carefully through the cutters, STEPPING to the edge and holding shift as you jump. Run and jump through if you want, but you're more likely to get munched. Then it's up the tower again, and jump right to the platform with the reversal potion. Once again, this is a shift jump. Continue right, watching out for the holes in the floor and another set of cutters, until you reach the wall. From here, climb up three levels and jump to the platform on the left (this will open the door). Quickly jump back to the other side and climb up another level (to the reversal potion) and run right. Don't worry about being careful - there are no big falls here. Once you get through the gate, you should see a blue potion and a pile of bones. Go left past these, climb down two levels, run right and jump across the pit (a running jump is fine) and - fancy that, the gate is open for you. Remember that slab you knocked down at the beginning of the level? This is where it comes into play. Go through this gate to the end of the room and hit the door opening switch, and you should see the door open below you. From here, go back where you came from but be careful - that pile of bones I mentioned earlier comes to life. Fight it and push it onto the spikes, and then simply retrace your steps back to the start door, this time climbing the right hand tower. Follow the path and it'll take you to the open finish door.

Sorry about the length etc, I've never written a walkthrough before...

Good Job. But it would look better separated via paragraphs

Isn't there anywhere I can find PoP-4D walkthru/guides? Pictures of the levels would be awesome, too. I tried Google and got nowhere.

And the original PoP, if it's not too much trouble. I found a flash version (repeatedly) and got it saved by checking HTML source, but I'd prefer the DOS and I only find 4D...
