Each game in the trilogy was built on the same engine, so the basic controls work the same. Two face buttons control your weapons (primary and secondary, which could mean a dagger depending on which game you’re playing), another face button causes the Prince to jump or roll. Two trigger buttons provide alternate camera angles — useful when trying to survey all of your possible platforming options. The other two trigger buttons control the Time Rewind feature, which is essentially a get-out-of-jail free card should you miss a jump or time a trap wrong, and the block button.
