Prince of Persia

Online version of Prince of Persia for PC DOS. Prince of Persia is an action platformer with sword combat, designed and programmed by Jordan Mechner in 1989 for the Apple II and published by Brøderbund of California. The player takes the role of an unnamed young hero who has 60 minutes of real time to fight through the palace of the evil vizier Jaffar and rescue the Princess. Thanks to its rotoscoped animation — Mechner filmed his own brother David and traced sword sequences from The Adventures of Robin Hood (1938) — and the precise mix of jumps, traps and real-time fencing, it became a founding work of the cinematic platformer subgenre and inspired later titles such as Another World or Flashback...

IBM PC with MS-DOS

Online emulated version of Prince of Persia was originally developed for the IBM PC and compatible computers, with MS DOS - Microsoft Disk Operating System. It is an OS for x86-based personal computers mostly developed by Microsoft and released in 1981 as PC DOS 1.0.
MS-DOS was targeted at Intel 8086 processors running on computer hardware using floppy disks to store and access not only the operating system, but application software and user data as well. Progressive version releases delivered support for other mass storage media in ever greater sizes and formats, along with added feature support for newer processors and rapidly evolving computer architectures. Ultimately, it was the key product in Microsoft's development from a programming language company to a diverse software development firm, providing the company with essential revenue and marketing resources. It was also the underlying basic operating system on which early versions of Windows ran as a GUI.
