This game made me lose sleep for a week. I was so obsessed with it that I lost touch with everything else...honestly made me worried. But an undeniable sign of its greatness. I got all the shrines, but not all the koroks.

What a $^*&ing drug trip this game was. A fantasy RPG that tricks you into playing every other genre, even shocking me with text adventure and space shooter components.

A bizarre game with unique and memorable gameplay, but its greatest accomplishment is its unforgettable mood and depressing world aesthetic. A fever-dream I'll always be able to recall in my mind, even though I didn't necessarily like it.

Had a unique tie-in mechanic that made Ages and Oracles' plots continuous with one another. Whichever one you beat first gave you a code you could use to continue your adventure in the other game as the same Link. Another standout in the 2D zelda franchise.

A standout among all 2D zeldas- little-known but one of the greatest Zelda games in the series!

Didn't understand or appreciate it as a child. May return to it as an adult.

As a child I got stuck on Jabu Jabu's belly. Came back to finish it as an adult. Iconic game, deserves its reputation.

Many people complain about the motion controls, but they introduced a puzzle element to combat that was really fun and innovative. I would love to see similar combat elements return in a more sophisticated form in future games. Also Zelda in this game is bae.

A great game with unique ambiance that I'll never forget. The ice fortress and ball&chain weapon stand out the most to me. And Midna is the ultimate series waifu.

My first Zelda game, played as a child on the SNES. Perhaps the game that made me a game-liker for life. Also the first great Zelda game, that cemented its legacy as one of the most iconic game series' of all time.

Good lord the original Final Fantasy games sucked. Even as remakes! Haha. 2 especially had amazing design ideas, and absolutely bombed the execution, with the most forgettable characters of all time. The one amazing thing about these games is how incredible the music was, with some of the greatest compositions of the entire series that are still used today already present even in these primordial games, like Matoya's Cave.

Played it as a kid and couldn't understand the balance of battle difficulty well enough to complete it. Will definitely do it as an adult.

If only the ending were completed, sigh...Still iconic, and the only game of its type ever released.
