Nine Sols or Prince of Persia:The Lost Crown

Both games are on sale on Steam for the winter sale and both have been on my wishlist for a while. Both are currently about $20 each.

Which one do you all think should I play first? Eventually I’ll come around to both but I only have time for one these holidays. For context I really love fromsoftware games and I adore sekiro so I’ve heard nine sols is big on sekiro-style parrying.

But I also love a good metroidvania and played the crap outta hollow knight, animal well, Ori and all the older metroids, and love challenging boss fights so PoP is looking appealing as well.

I’ve heard great things about both games making the choice really difficult! Any help deciding would be much appreciated.

Edit: further criteria I guess. I’d want the game with more meat on its bones in terms of content, preferably 20+ hrs on a first playthrough. And I’m a sucker for good replay value such as a combat or platforming system that’s fun to master. Like I’ve played through sekiro/elden ring about 15 times each just cuz it’s fun to master the combat.

Edit2: thanks everyone for the helpful suggestions! Tough choice but I think I going to go with Nine sols first but I’ll definitely be hitting up PoP soon afterwards.
