My second time completing this. Just as amazing as I remember it from about 5 years ago. I wasn't a Nintendo kid when I was younger, so I've been discovering classic Zelda games later in life. There are definitely games that are considered "classic" now that have that label mostly based on nostalgia and rose-tinted glasses, but this isn't one of them. This game is timeless, and, save for a few awkward UI elements, could be released today and feel contemporary.

In a way, this game makes me realise that video games haven't really changed much in the last 30 years. Yes, aesthetically things have changed, more complexity has been introduced, but many of the best games of today are still emulating the masters, like this one, when it comes to core mechanics and puzzle design. Immense.

Probably one of my favourite games of all time. 10/10
