      The funniest part about GAW is that theres a screen near where you start that is identical to the screen where the hidden staircase to lvl 8 is.
      I remember when I first played it and saw that screen, i said to myself "I bet the entrance to lvl 8 is located here lol." I chop the tree down and there actually is a staircase, I lost it, of course it's only a shop not a dungeon entrance, but still.

    Quite a nice compilation there! My favorite "Zelda-like" game is The Guardian Legend, for NES.

      I was going to mention the Mysterious Murasame Castle too, but it resembles the first Zelda more than the third (ALttP). Though you have to find the castle or the boss in each stage to move onto the next (and it lacks puzzles), it does have many hidden power-ups and traps focused on its quick action exploration - which again feels more like the more hectic dungeon-dives of the first Zelda than the less hectic, more puzzle-rich ALttP.

    I would also recommend sega genesis game - Landstalker. I know its perspective and sometimes horribly unfair platforming can be a pain in the ass. However I really liked the game’s sense of humor, dungeon design and beautiful graphics. Its really difficult game so nowadays I advise to just use savestates before platforming sections.

    • @TheTresto
      @TheTresto 4 роки тому +1

      StaySkeptic You are probably right when it comes to performing diagonal jumps but Landstalker had a little bit different problem. For me the biggest issue in Landstalker were moving platforms. There were moments where I had no idea if the platform is above me, left or right or in front of me. The only solution was trial and error and error meant falling to the bottom of the dungeon what resulted in lost lifes and time to get back up.

    I am currently playing through Alundra on the PS1 for the first time since it came out. Got to say the reason I am loving it again is because it plays like a great 2D Zelda, graphics and especially the music are fantastic. Was surprised you missed this one out, was expecting to see it. Few games 'Zelda esc' satisfy me. I did enjoy beyond Oasis as you mentioned, but Alundra has to be my top non Zelda game, really enjoying my current playthrough!

    I spent half of 2015 working on a Zelda-like game in a weird scifi future world where you have a sword and a dash and you can aim guns. Then Hyper Light Drifter came out and I was like "Oh...they made my game....way better than I could ever make it. Awesome..."
    And I was too sad to play it for like a year. But then I finally did, and it was really, really good.

    Some more modern Swith games similar to Zelda are Blossom Tales, Anodyne and Ocean Horn. The Magic of Scheherazade for the original NES is also similar to Zelda. I haven't had the chance to play Alundra for PS1, but I've heard it's similar to Zelda. Also for more great Zelda games that people don't really talk about much I recommend The Minish Cap, Oracle of Time and Oracle of Seasons.
