Antarah: The Game takes you into the world of Arabian folklore, out now on iOS

Author: Claire Feb 20,2025

Antarah: The Game, a new 3D action-adventure title, brings the legendary Arabian folkloric hero to life. Antarah, a prominent figure in pre-Islamic lore, is often compared to King Arthur, though perhaps more akin to a Prince of Persia-style hero in his adventurous exploits.

This mobile game depicts Antarah's journey through expansive deserts and cities, battling numerous foes. While the graphics aren't hyperrealistic (think less Genshin Impact, more minimalist), the scale is impressive for a mobile title.

However, the game's visual scope might be its current limitation. Early trailers primarily showcase a repetitive orange desert landscape. While the animation is smooth, the lack of environmental diversity and unclear narrative progression could be a concern, especially for a game based on historical drama. The depth of the story remains to be seen.

Available on iOS, Antarah: The Game invites players to explore the world of pre-Islamic Arabian folklore. Whether it successfully immerses players in this rich historical setting remains to be determined.
