Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time - Collectibles Guide

 

Information -

 

The collectibles in PoP: The Sands of Time are fairly simple, there are 58 total. 48 Sand Clouds which are small glowing clouds similar to save points but much smaller in size, then there are the 10 hidden Fountains of Life which are more hidden because they give you health upgrades. However they are fairly simple to find and with this guide it should make it very easy.

 

Sand Clouds will be color coded in Orange. Fountains of Life will be color coded in Blue. The collectibles are in the order that you will collect them but there will also be chapter breaks to inform you of when to find these collectibles they will be in Bold text and in the game chapters change at save points.

I went through to check and make sure that the guide is accurate so there should not be any problems however if anyone finds anything wrong with it please inform me so that I can fix it. I hope having both collectibles compiled into one guide makes it simpler for people to find they really are not well hidden.

 

Please give me any feedback that you can think of so that I can make this guide and future guides better. I hope that some people get some good help out of this guide and it makes for some stress free collecting of collectibles and trophies, Happy Hunting!

I am 100% sure I have collect all 48, but after the last one the trophy dont pop.

 

I am playing the Retail triology on disc.

 

Could have have died and missed one that you had previously obtained by not re-obtaining it. Some of the PoP games works that way and do not keep after death if you do not save I am pretty sure The Sands of Time was one of them.

 

If you are 100% positive this could not have happened I have not heard of any glitches with the sand clouds so I am at a loss for a solution.
