Antarah: The Game takes you into the world of Arabian folklore, out now on iOS
Antarah: The Game, a new 3D action-adventure title based on Arabian folklore, offers a thrilling take on the legendary hero. While video game adaptations of historical figures often fall short, Antarah shows promise.
For those unfamiliar, Antarah ibn Shaddad al-Absias is a pre-Islamic figure comparable to King Arthur, renowned as both a poet and a knight. His story, focusing on his trials to win the hand of Abla, is a central theme. The game's gameplay evokes Prince of Persia, with Antarah traversing vast deserts and cities, battling numerous enemies. Despite minimalist graphics (compared to titles like Genshin Impact), the scale is impressive for a mobile game.
However, the game's visual scope appears limited. Trailers predominantly showcase a repetitive orange desert landscape. While the animation is appealing, the narrative's depth remains unclear, a crucial aspect for a historical drama.
Whether Antarah: The Game successfully immerses players in pre-Islamic Arabian folklore remains to be seen. Download it on iOS and decide for yourself. For more expansive open-world adventures, explore our list of the top 15 best adventure games for Android and iOS.
