The first open world Zelda! I was expecting cryptic nonsense, but the game is pretty straight up with its secrets and progression. I love how keys in dungeons can be taken to others, and there's a real charm to its simplicity. I prefer the more linear Zeldas for their presentation and depth, but don't sleep on this 40 year old game because I was very surprised by my enjoyment!
