Prince of Persia: Warrior Within Hints
How do I pass the pit with the retracting floor?
1 of 10: First, you have to extend the floor over the pit. Look around for a way to do this.
2 of 10: There's a switch above the ground before the pit.
3 of 10: Run up the wall to hit the switch.
4 of 10: If you do this and try to run across the floor, though, it will retract back into the wall before you can get across. You have to find a way to cross faster. Or, better yet...
5 of 10: ...make the floor retract slower.
6 of 10: You now have the ability to do this. Think about your powers to alter time.
7 of 10: By using "Eye of the Storm" (Slow Time), you'll be able to slow down time (and thus the rate at which the floor retracts) as you continue to move at normal speed.
8 of 10: Run up the wall, hit the switch, and immediately slow down time. Run across the retracting floor as quickly as possible. You should have plenty of time. If you need sand, drop down into the pit and destroy some of the jars to find some.
9 of 10: As soon as you get past the first floor, you'll be confronted with a very similar obstacle. This time, however, the switch is harder to get to.
