I might not finish this game in time for TotK, which sucks because it's only one of two single player Zeldas that I haven't beat. So this score isn't final or anything, but I at least want to give my thoughts on the gameplay.
This game was definitely ahead of it's time for being entirely touchscreen based. But while the idea is really stretched to its limits, because it's so central to the experience, they really had to simplify things like the dungeons and boat traversal to the point where it's too easy and uninvolved for me. I can see a lot of appeal in a chill, half pay attention kind of game, but I don't think I'd come back to this game. But that's not at all the reason why. The actual reason is that the Temple of the Ocean King sucks. Idc how many shortcuts you give me. The fact you have to replay the dungeon from the beginning every single time is stupid.
