Beyond it being a SOLID love letter to CDI games, its an excellent metroidvania. Fullfilling back tracking. Combat is just ok. But good enough to keep you playing and looking for the next power up. Would love to see

This was a really entertaining game. A fun jab at the CDI Zelda games. Fun characters and solid gameplay. A few downsides: Bosses are not that challenging. If you get some items in the game make them practically

As a fan of CD-i Zelda YTPs and connoisseur of the original gameplay, this is basically what you'd get if you grabbed said gameplay and made it, you know, actually good haha Loved the character designs, animated

Fun game. Refreshingly simple and lighthearted with enough to keep me occupied and coming back for more. The cutscenes and characters gave me some hearty chuckles. I only know about the Zelda CDI games through memes, so

This is a game that strongly pays homage to CD-i Link... except it's actually very good. Very funny cutscenes and very well voice acted(because of what it is meant to be over the top). It is a solid combat platformer

it's what it says it sets out to do. it's a new zelda cd-i game! but freed from the limitations of having to run on a dvd player! so now it actually controls well! it's fun to explore the environments.
