being replaced and rebooted. X has several pseudonyms, the two most popular among
them being ‘Gwynbleidd’ and the ‘Butcher of Blaviken’.
Y is a folklore motif that occurs in the folklore of various northern European cultures.
Y typically involves a chase led by a mythological figure escorted by a ghostly or
supernatural group of hunters engaged in pursuit. In the game series, they are a group

33. Q13. Pixelated Pals
This famous game series from Ubisoft was initially a spinoff of the Prince of Persia franchise.
Furthermore, during its early design and thought, the game developers initially referred to it as
Prince of Persia: X.
However, this was turned down as the story didn’t focus more on the Prince which was
contradictory to the name.
Hence, Ubisoft rejected the idea of “Prince of Persia: X” but used its intellectual property to
create X. The game was a major financial success, prompting Ubisoft to produce subsequent
sequels for the franchise.
This franchise has a similar gameplay to its source inspiration and throughout the games, the X
work in the shadows to bring salvation to millions.
