This game is WAY better than I thought it would be. I thought it was going to be a fun multiplayer game where you and your friends would compete against each other and go through relatively simple dungeons. That's part of it, but it is even better. The dungeons are anything but simple. Many of the puzzles are unlike any found in previous Zelda games. A lot of them are creative ways that take advantage of the Four Links that you control. This game takes place in the same Hyrule that was in A Link to the Past. It has many of the same locations and music. It also has many familiar characters from Ocarina of Time including Kaepora Gaebora and Malon. The graphics are wonderful. I doesn't matter that almost everything is 2D. The game looks wonderful and it would definately be worse with 3D graphics. The battle in this game is also wonderful. This game plays in an overhead view and looks just like A Link to the Past so most people would think that you would have your basic sword slash and spin attack....but you also have a lunge attack from Ocarina of Time and a backwards slash where you thrust the sword behind you. Also when you collect enought Force Gems in a stage your swords power up so that you can charge your sword twice to do a hurricane spin. When you collect Heart Containers in a level you only keep them for the level. You can only hold one item other than the sword at a time just like the original 4 Swords. This game isn't as long as Ocarina of Time or even the Windwaker, but I feel that it is just as good or even better. It's like playing through a Zelda game where you are always going through dungeons and solving puzzles. The multiplayer is the best I have ever played, seriously. You can attack your friends while you are playing by throwing them, slashing them, or using any of your weapons. When you go in buildings and caves and holes you go through them on your GBA. To me this sounded like it would be irritating but I was wrong. There are whole dungeons to explore on your GBA. It is also very cool that you can throw a bomb into a house that your friend is in and it will blow up in the house on his/her GBA. There is also Shadow Battle that you can play with your friends and you fight till the death. Although this game isn't as long as the Windwaker, I believe that I will be playing this game more because it is much more fun and the multiplayer is awesome. This game is definately a 10.
