Progressing through Link's Awakening sometimes requires you to do things that are so obtuse and obscure that it makes Dark Souls side quests seems relatively straightforward in comparison, to the point that I have no idea how anyone could beat this game without consulting your guide other than literally scouring every inch of it every time they get stuck until they find the path forward.

And yet, I had a great time playing it! The art and music are stellar, the basic mechanics and progression are as satisfying as most Zelda games I've played and the offbeat dreamlike vibes of the story and setting are excellent.

Great little game, suggested to anyone, just look up a guide whenever you get really stuck.
