Zelda II: The Adventures of Link is the direct sequel to one of my favorite games of all time - The Legend of Zelda. Zelda II expands on the story, having a grown up Link fighting to save the princess (who has been cursed into sleep) and Link is also trying to stop the forces of evil from reviving Gannon (the bad guy from the first Zelda game).
While the first Zelda game was a straight adventure game, Zelda II mixes in RPG elements in how you search the towns, talk to people and try to discover what to do and where to go next. When you are in the overworld, you control link from the top down and this is very similar to an RPG. As you walk, you get into random battles (which are partially avoidable) and the action is now side-scrolling. You can fight with your sword and cast magic. Throughout the game Link levels up as he gains experience and can earn more magic points, health, or strength.
This is one of the more difficult Zelda games and it was only until I replayed the game a couple years ago that I was finally able to make my way through the final dungeon to defeat the game (I could never find my way to the last boss). Even with the advanced difficulty, this is a stellar game and fully lives up (or helps to set up) the Zelda dynasty and is part of the reason why this is such a well respected and beloved video game franchise.

Unfortunately although I do own this game I feel it was nearly a deathblow to the entire series. Zelda games are a classic the first game with saving capacity. It truly was a ground-breaking game because in stead have your old school side scrolling games you had freedom of movement, different items to utilize, and puzzling dungeons to master. I feel whoever cam up with idea for a side scrolling zelda game owes us hard-core Zelda fans an apology.

In order to best explain this game, cross original The Legend of Zelda with Castlevania ][: Simon's Quest and Dragon Warrior, and there you have it. It's as fun, just a different graphical display. Check it out if you like twists.

This was one of the first Nintendo games I owned when I received the system for a present when I was about eight years old. It's still a great game even today, when I play it. And it's probably the best Zelda sequel Nintendo made. This was one of those games you played and played until your fingers actually hurt and when you slept, you just still felt like you wanted to play it. The game takes an almost sadistic turn once you cross the ocean to the Eastern Hyrule section near the end of the game, which is one of the greatest challenges in any video game I've ever played. If you're looking for challenge, play this game. If you want an easier Zelda game, I'd say play the third one or any of the Nintendo64 ones, as they are very simple.

I am one of a few people that think, that Zelda II: The Adventure Of Link, surpasses it's original (The Legend Of Zelda).
There's something really mystical and magical about every aspect of this game., that was severely lacking in it's predecessor. (That is severely lacking in most games that are on the market today!)
From the moment you turn the game pak on, wonderful, mystical/fantasy music hits, which soon turns eerie and frightening; a sort of a feeling that the land of Hyrule has suddenly changed. It's a nightmare province now; we feel we're in a fantasy within a fantasy. The rest of music, thought the game thoroughly reflects the moods generated. So unlike many other games there's no lost of feeling of what your quest is about, and how you must desperately trying to get rid of this horrendous and fearful evil. Now very few games have that sort of effect on people, I can tell you.
The story is that it's been years since an inexperienced Link had defeated the evil Ganyon (the original game) But now the Ganyon has returned, causing yet more treacherous murder as he tries to overthrow the power of awe inspiring Princess Zelda. Removing six precious crystals from palaces across the land of Hyrule, he uses the powerful wizardry from them to put a sleeping spell on the beautiful Princess Zelda.
Hyrule's only hope is her close and best friend (really her boyfriend!) Link. Now bigger and more mature and skillful. Who sets on, on what feel surely a traitorous and grueling quest.
As you might have gathered from playing Zelda games is that the land of Hyrule is HUGE! Your first main task is to return the six precious crystals to their origins, in six stone statues. Only by defeating the six guardians you will be able to gain access to the seventh palace. Once the palace has it's stone returned the palace will turn to stone! But the first task itself is not at all simple: On your way helpful villagers from town you may want to visit will encounter clues and lot of secret info that is almost essential to your quest. That's not all! You can learn a variety of magic spells and learn new moves with your sword! As well as a complex way of extending life and magic power.
I could go on and on about this game, because the whole game is just so well planned out! I can see that people were put off with this game because of the complex elements during gameplay. It's not just an RPG action adventure scrolling game.
