Really enjoyed this one a lot more than I expected given that it's usually given middling reviews. I found it to be familiar in all the best ways, bringing back characters and iconic locations from previous games, and i'd even say it has one of my favourite overworlds. It's also pretty unique, the minish are fun and some of the powerups I hadn't seen before in other Zeldas.

The dungeons are pretty easy but satisfying and visually unique, and they're spread between minute-to-minute overworld puzzle-solving that is much more fun and engaging than usual. The final dungeon is great and the final boss fight is a real challenge. There's not too many of them, but it didn't feel detrimental to the game like how I felt with Majora's Mask. Dungeon puzzle-solving is just spread out everywhere instead.

The characters are quirky and the visuals still look great, and I don't think this game gets enough praise.
