Rating: - The best video game of all time
Yeah, I know that title may be pretty grand for this old 16-bit video game, but for a fantasy/adventure lover like me, it just don't get better than this. Inspite of all the video games I've played with all their flashy 3-D graphics and extremely complex gameplay, if I had to honestly choose one video game to be crowned king, this would be the one. It just represents every young man (or boy's) longing for adventure and excitement, a quest/purpose, to fight unimaginable monsters/evil, to save the beautiful damsel and in the process, the world.
The story's simple yet engaging, the music classical and priceless, the graphics old-school and simple yet detailed and dazzling. This video game entralled me as a boy, and though I know now where most of the secrets are, I'm still in love with it. You get to trek a huge world with a wonderful helpful map to find where you want to go; the monsters are cool and widely varied and you have to figure out each one's weak spot; you get so many different weapons and powers, with the master sword being the most sought after; the dungeons are loads of fun and very addictive.
This is my absolute favorite of the Zelda series and grips me the most out of them all.
Rating: - great game
This Zelda game back in the early 90s made up for the 2nd game being a piece of crap. The world map is big with a light and dark world map making the game twice as big. There lots of new items like the pegasis boots for running, the master sword, and the mirror for switching to new worlds. If you did like the origonal game you will love this one. So I say you should check this game out. There is a 2nd game on this besides A Link to the past, The 4 swords. I havent played it since you need 4 friends with the game, but buying it for just A Link to the Past is still not a waste.
Rating: - Surprisingly fun
Some parts of the game are surprisingly tricky and oftentimes frustrating. I needed online help since I'm usually lousy at finding things. However, it's still a fun game that I had trouble putting down. There were many opportunities to interact with the environment, which increased as I found more tools. I picked up rocks, cut down signs, ran into trees to release their contents, dug holes in the ground to look for treasure, I pulled levers and dragged statues, and I even made myself invisible. My biggest annoyance was falling down holes since I'm quite clumsy.

Got this for my 6 year old grandson, since he was always taking his older brother's gameboy. Got him a Gameboy from Amazon (used) also, so he was all set to go and the big brother did not have to worry about his "stuff". Now they are both happy and can switch games when they want.
Rating: - 2 for 1, 1 for 2
A great classic game plus a multi-player Zelda in addition. Who can turn up their nose to that?
