Im not talking about the puzzles, but the combat is a total biatch, especially those lizards that blow up. I found combat in Sands of Time to be rather simple. In Warrior Within, I just cant seem to get the hang of it. You cant seem to find fountains as easily in this one and sometimes you get surrounded by too many enemias. Did anyone find it the same way or do I just suck at this game?

i found the combat very difficult at first. i kept getting killed by those red chicks and even regular enemies. but the more i practiced and got a hang of blocking/reversals/rolling, the combat became easier. it is still a tough fight when there are 4+ enemies attacking you, but then again it should be. when rushing into a fight, if i have 2 weapons, i like to throw one into one of the guys and it usually takes their head off.

so yes the combat is tough

Its not just you, I had some problems because I had no idea there were health/attack powerups. I didnt get my first one untill near the end of the game.

Go into slow motion when those lizards come. Then you'll be able to avoid them when they go kamakazi.

The throw move has cheapened the game for me. I find myself relying on it too much by throwing everyone off cliffs.

Yeah I found it really difficult at the beginning too. Those lizards buggers are tough. I hit one until he starts glowing and then I start backflipping away, I usually try to flip off an edge cause the prince wont actually fall he always catches the ledge and you are totally safe from the explosion then.

I had no idea there were health/attack powerups. I didnt get my first one untill near the end of the game

What do you mean by powerups?? I might be missing them too.

There are 9 hidden rooms throughout the game. When you find a hidden room there is tons of traps to pass, then you'll see a big door and your health meter will increase.

IGN have them all covered in their cheat section of POP:WW.
