Also moving down to offer a third person view instead of the overtop that other games have given is a nice change of scenery, offering the player a bit more of an immersive experience instead of being the all-seeing eye of the game. Sounds of a bow being drawn, the discovery chime, and more sounds are emitted as the motion sensor of the remote notices certain patterns of movement of certain effects in the game are activated.
Being another action-adventure game like all other Legend of Zelda stories, Link is once again singled out to be the needed hero and fight away the evil that plagues his beloved Princess Zelda and her kingdom.
This time, the threat of a parallel dimension known as the Twilight Realm is corrupting Hyrule and engulfing it into the new dimension. Link is now able to take on the form of a hylian and a wolf, with the aid of a mysterious creature named Midna, and must use all of these powers at his disposal if he wishes to save his home. Able to use projectiles and melee weapons, a player must navigate Link through nine dungeons, each with a separate boss fight at the end of them, to obtain an item needed or advance the plot further to the game.
In search for dungeons, Link is able to travel by foot, on his horse, Epona, or even teleporting through unlockable warp points, through the large overworld connecting the dungeons. Legend of Zelda is one of the greatest classic games Nintendo has produced, with every game following the intricate storyline and never missing a beat when expanding upon the universe that Link explores day after day.
This adaption of the series is no different, with new enemies, new controls, and new features, but the same beloved characters and overarching story. The controls are old-fashioned, sure, and the game world is flipped what was east is west now and stripped of widescreen. We lavished all 10s on the Wii Princess last issue and, aside from some small technical details, this version is identical. Each new chapter in Nintendo's most revered franchise tackles the same concept--heroic elf boy battles monsters, saves chick, saves world--in a brave new way.
Twilight Princess pulls a complete from the last GameCube iteration, The Wind Waker, shirking off that game's kiddified visual trappings and waterlogged nautical gameplay in favor of a return to the realistic environments, darker themes, and horseback action of 's Ocarina of Time Nintendo In fact, the story line takes place a few decades after Ocarina's, although the Link that you control is, in the words of Director Eiji Aonuma, "a new Link.
This twilight holds bizarre mysteries: When Link steps into it, he transforms into a wolf, handing players an all-new array of attacks and special abilities to master. Sadly, the version I played did not feature any sections in which Link became his lupine alter ego, but luckily, I still witnessed plenty of gameplay variety. In the game's initial village, I wasted plenty of time messing around as "Cowboy Link," herding goats on my trusty horse, canoeing downstream, tracking down lost puppies, gliding around with chickens, summoning my pet hawk to knock down a beehive, practicing my swordplay on a dummy, and exploring hidden nooks and crannies in the peaceful hamlet.
I'm always amazed by how much enjoyment Nintendo can pack into a tiny, tranquil little town. Next up, I tackled a horseback combat section on a vast, rolling plain. The sheer size of this location astounded me--it offered an even greater sense of scale than Hyrule Field the central hub in Ocarina of Time , but with nonstop action, as I fended off attackers from every side.
This battle segued into a thrilling and surprisingly tough duel on horseback, as I jousted with the enemy leader who rode a hideous boar. Dramatic stuff, indeed. All of that felt like a warm-up for the true meat of a Zelda experience--a complex, engaging dungeon. Spelunking through this Forest Temple reminded me of what's so amazing about the series' labyrinths: Each one offers a cleverly designed location, plenty of enemies to smite, tricky puzzles to solve, and well-hidden secrets to uncover.
