Ha ha...nice. I like those games, but only by not thinking too hard about what's going on. That, and I tell myself now it was all just prep so Ubisoft could come out with Assassin's Creed.

This is why you never play with Time-Sand, children. Food for thought.

Sand for thought, I guess.

Sandwich for thought maybe?

No maybe about it, good sir.

Ham makes the finest sandwich of the mind. Ham, or an MLT.

Mutton, lettuce and tomato. When the mutton is nice and lean, and the tomato's ripe. They're so perky. I love that.

I approve. Sands of Time is great for this kind of comics because the Prince is always second-guessing himself, and Farah makes nothing but snide comments for most of the game. The game is much more immersive because the character and the player share this sense that they have a firm grasp of themselves, but there could still be something insurmountable around the next corner.

It's not often that I literally laugh out loud at a comic, but I did so just now. (I mean, at this comic, not at some other comic that I mysteriously chose to comment on here.)

Also: mental whiplash from the flashback to the original Prince of Persia! What a great game that was.

I agree. Although, as I was reminded when making this comic, that game was seriously HARD. I actually think Jordan Mechner was trying to kill me.

He'll have decades to think about messing with the sands of time. Unfortunately, he'll forget that after his next sandwich.

Hahaha. Oh my god. Sands of Time is one of my favorite games, and I couldn't think of how it could be made fun of. Now I saw, and I love it. Your comics are amazing, your ideas unrivaled, your logic undeniable.
