The best 2D Zelda by far
The Zelda Series had reached a point in the early 2010s where the formula was starting to get old, specially considering the lack of innovation the series had in the 2000s, and as much as I think that time was the peak of Zelda games, one day the series had to change, and The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds was the start of that.
The game embraces non linearity in a smart way, bringing innovation to the series while also staying true to its roots, in an even better way than BOTW did(BOTW is still better overall tho). This was a breath of fresh air after how obscenely linear Skyward Sword was.
The new mechanics are amazing, the double worlds mechanic are way better implemented than ALTTP, and merging into walls is really fun, both in puzzle solving and as a movement option.
It's also a pretty easy game to 100%, the heart pieces are all simple to find and some are really creative, and lots of the quests are really fun to do, specially the Maiamai collecting, which is my favorite collecting quest in the whole series
This is truly an amazing game that every Zelda fan should play.
