There are a number of changes that just make the whole thing less of a chore.
#Link between worlds zelda sexy series
It is, by far, the most accessible game in the Zelda series – and in this case “accessible” doesn’t mean “dumbed-down” or simplified. You’ll visit many of the same locations, meet some of the same characters and even collect some of the same items – but it’s in no way the same game, or a simple rehash. And though it features many of the same locales and people, Lorule is not quite a dark mirror world – there are some rather stark and significant geographical changes and you’ll have to use your wits to get about in Lorule.Īside from the dimension shifting mechanic, A Link between Worlds plays very much like A Link to the Past. Later on, the same mechanic is used to allow Link to travel between worlds (so that’s where the title comes from!) by passing through fissures in the landscape that link Hyrule with a darker counterpart, Lorule – which is where Yuga has hidden all the captures sages. It’s a neat trick that’s used constantly and often cleverly throughout the game. If there’s a gap that a fully-fleshed Link can’t traverse, merge with the wall as a painting and he’ll be able to shimmy along the wall as a living piece of art. This new mechanic adds a new dimension (or rather, takes one away) to the game’s puzzles. Our hero is able to escape the spell though, and gains the ability to become a painting against a wall again at will. In an early encounter, he does the same to our green-tunic wearing hero, turning him in to a painting too, stuck against a wall. This time, it’s some nasty by the name of Yuga, who’s transformed the seven sages in to paintings to easier wrest control of the artefact. Once again, the peaceful kingdom of Hyrule is under threat, some or other big bad guy is after that mystical relic that keeps the Kingdom in check, the Triforce. Those changes don’t come in the narrative though. It’s not though, because it makes some worthwhile and interesting changes to the established, dare I say clichéd formula. Set after that defining 16-bit SNES classic, A Link to the Past, A Link Between Worlds is in fact set in the very same universe – and looks for all the world like the same game, with a graphical lick paint afforded by the march of technological evolution.
Link’s latest adventure, A Link between Worlds for the 3DS does exactly the opposite it takes all the things that made you fall in love with a Legend of Zelda, and makes them better. Usually they end up pissing all over your memories, as was the case with Aliens: Colonial Marines and Duke Nukem forever. Games that play on your nostalgia are a funny thing.
