This game is amazing. I got it for 10 cent by making a badge and it's the best 10 cent I spent XD
The essence of the original Zelda on the nes is perfectly captured. I'd even go a step further and say it's better in certain aspects. I had so much joy exploring and finding secrets & the 40 monster cards. All the items are well thought out and are worth going after along with their upgrades. The graphics have a certain charm and are crispy/sharp. The music and sound effects are fine too.
The game doesn't mess around though. For the most part it's challenging but doable. Boss 9, 10 and dungeon 10 were significantly more challenging than the rest. It felt punishing sometimes but it felt great when you overcome the odds and it was still on the fair side. Just don't expect a walk in the park.
In terms of flaws, switching the secondary weapon was clunky. I've been in situations (mainly dungeon 10) where I need to switch my weapons and it wasn't fast enough. I have to multitask that while avoiding damage. It was also too late that I found out the tables with the blue objects contain lore. I didn't read most of it. Mind you, it's nothing amazing. More of an excuse to play the game.
The 7.3 hours is for 100% the game completely blind. The normal price of 1 euro is totally worth it if you're looking for an old school Zelda 1 like game with a shotgun. Congrats on making such a great game dev!
