Bought this 4 my husband ...a big Zelda fan. He has played it multiple time & now has our oldest child into playing as well. If you have been a fan of previous Zelda games you will be a fan of this as well.
Rating: 5 of 5 Zelda always rocks
What can I say? You either like Zelda or you don't. I think it's continuing saga is amazing & fun to be part of.
Rating: 5 of 5 The best video game of all time
Yeah, I know that title may be pretty grand 4 this old 16-bit video game, but 4 a fantasy/adventure lover like me, it just don't get better than this. Inspite of all the video games I've played with all their flashy 3-D graphics & extremely complex gameplay, if I had to honestly choose one video game to be crowned king, this would be the one. It just represents every young man (or boy's) longing 4 adventure & excitement, a quest/purpose, to fight unimaginable monsters/evil, to save the beautiful damsel & in the process, the world.
The story's simple yet engaging, the music classical & priceless, the graphics old-school & simple yet detailed & dazzling. This video game entralled me as a boy, & though I know now where most of the secrets are, I'm still in love with it. You get to trek a huge world with a wonderful helpful map to find where you want to go; the monsters are cool & widely varied & you have to figure out each one's weak spot; you get so many different weapons & powers, with the master sword being the most sought after; the dungeons are loads of fun & very addictive.
This is my absolute favorite of the Zelda series & grips me the most out of them all.
Rating: 4 of 5 great game
This Zelda game back in the early 90s made up 4 the 2nd game being a piece of crap. The world map is big with a light & dark world map making the game twice as big. There lots of new items like the pegasis boots 4 running, the master sword, & the mirror 4 switching to new worlds. If you did like the origonal game you will love this one. So I say you should check this game out. There is a 2nd game on this besides A Linkto the past, The 4 swords. I havent played it since you need 4 friends with the game, but buying it 4 just A Linkto the Past is still not a waste.
Rating: 5 of 5 Surprisingly fun
Some parts of the game are surprisingly tricky & oftentimes frustrating. I needed online help since I'm usually lousy at finding things. However, it's still a fun game that I had trouble putting down. There were many opportunities to interact with the environment, which increased as I found more tools. I picked up rocks, cut down signs, ran into trees to release their contents, dug holes in the ground to look 4 treasure, I pulled levers & dragged statues, & I even made myself invisible. My biggest annoyance was falling down holes since I'm quite clumsy.
