    i rarely recommend playing remakes of games, but the switch remake is honestly amazing. i highly recommend it.
    This was one of my favorite gameboy games growing up.

    I think its pretty clear but is not so much about her being a seagull but more like her wanting to be free cause she knew she will disappear, she knew about the island and she knew it was the only way for link to escape. All she wanted was freedom which was impossible because she was nothing more than a part of the wind fish's dream but then her dream came true and was able to exist outside of the fish's dream. seagulls (birds in general) are known as a symbol of freedom

      I feel you. Zelda is what made me a gamer. Specifically a link to the past. I played games for years before that but that's when I got hooked. I remember borrowing links awakening from my cousin after finding out it existed from her and keeping it for many months until I beat it and gave it back to her. Games like this took time without access to the Internet back then. Ahhhh... the good ol' days lol. Oh God!!! I am old now. I'm repeating phrases from my dad at the tender age of 36!!!! Anyways.. I got to grow up in the golden age of gaming imo

    I am a fan of this one, a link to the past and the oracle set. This story is my favorite in the series due to the inner journey and the gravity of the consequences- the struggle for doing what is right, not what is easy. It's a mature lesson, and a tough choice. But it's also an allegory for the defining moments that come up in life.

    Not to be a stickler,but Zelda was the player character for Zelda’s Adventure and Zelda:The Wand of Gamelon for the CDI, tbh the games suck but I want them to be canon for the lols. Also the wand of gamelon is a powerful magical artifact,as well as the book of Koridai. The book can one shot seal ganon,and the wand has the power to control the book,as well as just being magic.
