This game took a long time for me to actually sit down and play, but I think it's pretty good. Not as much as say, A Link Between Worlds, but this one is really fun regardless.

I have a couple negatives, being that kinstones were at first a little confusing (though I got over it after figuring out how to get kinstones a bit easier), and the temple of droplets is probably my least favorite dungeon due to it's ice physics being pretty annoying. Still has a cool boss and set up tho.

My favorite dungeon on the other hand is probably the Fortress of Winds, partly because it's boss is really cool, but also because i like that despite how open ended the dungeon seems at first with how many doors you can go down, you gotta worm around to find a soluble way through until you get the mole mitts, where then you can go back and tear the dungeon apart. It's a fun feeling, even if the mole mitts aren't my favorite item.

I do like the item selection here though. Stand outs being the roc's cape, the gust jar, the flip cane or whatever it's called, and I really like the deal with the four sword being able to split link up into 4, it's pretty neat on how it's used. I also like the deal with the minish stuff. Both in characters because they are typically adorable mice guys, and in ability as link can shrink to being a minish himself, making up some really neat scenarios with the shrunken point of view.

The only question i have is whats the deal with the light force? I know it's a canon thing since this game i believe precedes OoT, so what it's deal? It doesn't seem to have much to do with the tri force or hylia or what not, though it is similarly sought after due to it's power. Even has a connection to the Hylian Royal Family, so eh?

Either way, I like this game, and i especially like it's sprite work.
