Zelda at its best!! - By: Leonna, 13 Feb 2007 
I'm a 19 year old girl,and for christmas last year, I asked for a gameboy advanced...sad? yes, but i HAD to try out this zelda!! i'm a massive zelda fan & I have been since I was 5. Anyway, I wasn't disapointed with this game! it is very hard at times, & to be honest yes i did have to look up a walkthrough to do certain bit's ! I spent about two weeks to complete it which I thought was a shame as it could of done with being a little bit longer! but hey, it was very fun while it lasted! its very addictive, very entertaining , very hard , yet very short , so i gave it an overall rating of 4! But please dont let that put you of! i URGE all zelda fans to give this game a go!
Masterpiece - By: Beechy, 03 Jan 2007 
I never turn down a chance to play a zelda game. This is the best handheld zelda ever. A unique game, with clever puzzles, lots to see, do & collect. There are many mysteries to unravel, & the new items are top notch. Not as good as any of the 3d zeldas but hey, every GBA owner should own this.
Smaller scale, still big fun!!!!!! - By: ACIDBURN, 01 Aug 2006 
I'm a big fan of all the zelda titles, & this is just one more to get your teeth into.
True, its on a smaller scale but all the good stuff is still here, puzzle solving, side quests, finding & collecting items to progress you through the game, & of course, fighting the big bad & rescuing the pretty princess ( aswell as the rest of the world )If you have never played zelda or other RPG's before, be warned, there is plenty to frustrate, confuse & down-right annoy you, but if this is your cup of tea, then crack on, its well worth it!!!!!
The game play is reponsive & the graphics clear & very cute, the only thing to worry about is putting the game down for five minutes to eat & sleep, 10 out of 10, no doubt!!!!!!!!!
zelda slippes right down to minish world - By: G. Rowe, 25 Jan 2006 
When I got this game i was hoping for lots of cool stuff but after a while its the same enimes same puzzles i liked the game at first but then i got kinda borin it was also extrimly hard at first but once i got the hand of it, it became better the graffics are the best featurein the game.
Good addition to the series! - By: Steven Carne, 14 Jan 2006 
This is one of the few games I've bought without reading any reviews first & I was actually pleasantly surprised with it.
We got this Zelda before US, so I hadn't seen much of it.
The game is instantly familiar to Zelda fans- the controls & gameplay are very similar to A Link to the Past etc, with a few extrasin there too.
The game has probably among the best graphics I've seen on GBA, they are smooth & very personalised, the sound quality is excellent too- I was playing on a GB Player & the music sounded like an N64 game! The graphics still looked very nice on the big screen too, my sister played on the GBA SP & that seemed very good too.
The story is hardly great, but the gameplay makes up for it. The locations & the dungeons are all varied & the bosses are still inventive. The dungeons are even all fun to play! Even the ice one!
There are a few new items to get here which I won't spoil, but it was nice to see.
The feature with this game is the ability to shrink, this is usedin lots of puzzles & is quite a clever thing, it's nice to see little holes that you can get into etc. I prefer other Zelda games' "feature's" though eg.
The problem with this game is that despite being fun the game is quite easy... there are some moments that will have you wondering about a puzzle, but no level is really that hard.
It is constantly fun, & the easiness isn't really a problem except that you come to the end quicker than you want to- it does have some things that will divert you from the main path, but not to the extent of OoT.
I am disappointed that 4 Swords wasn't shoved onto this game so that people could link up with alttp owners to play multiplayer too.
If you want a Zelda, this is highly recommended. A Link to the Past is harder, longer, & has lots more secrets, as well as just being a bit more "mature" looking.(And 4 Swords mulitplayer)
This one is great fun, has nice graphics & sound, & is [also] very clever, but I personally would recommend ALttP over it.
There is always 4 Swords on GameCube which I can also highly recommend if you want a multiplayer Zelda.
