Play 2 In 1 - Prince Of Persia - The Sands Of Time & Tomb Raider - The Prophecy Online

2 In 1 - Prince Of Persia - The Sands Of Time & Tomb Raider - The Prophecy is one of those GBA carts that feels like a steal. You get two solid adventures in one, though they play very differently. Prince of Persia has that rewind mechanic where you undo mistakes, which is handy because the platforming can be brutal. Tomb Raider is more about slow, methodical exploration—lots of pushing blocks and figuring out traps.

The transition between them is jarring at first. One minute you're flipping off walls and slashing enemies, the next you're carefully lining up jumps in Lara's world. The controls take some getting used to, especially since the GBA's buttons aren't ideal for 3D-style movement. But once it clicks, both games have their charm.

It's not perfect—some of the camera angles in Tomb Raider make jumps harder than they should be, and Prince of Persia's combat feels a little stiff. Still, having both in one cartridge makes it worth the hassle. You get used to switching gears between them.
