I will start by saying that Zelda: A Link to the Past is one of my all time favorite games EVER. For those unfamiliar, but it the overhead SNES version of Zelda. I was always sad that there weren't more games for the SNES, but that one had it all. Great dungeons, great boss fights, and alternate universe (effectively doubling the playfield size). This game was immediately on my radar, but when I purchased my refurbished Zelda 3DS XL, it did not include this game with it. I finally saw it at my set price and bought it and I was not disappointed.
Pros:
- For those familiar with the SNES game, this will be VERY familiar. It's not exact, but most of the areas resonate with that game. This is helpful in unlocking some of the secrets throughout the game.
- Game length is good. I wasn't sure how long the game would last for me as I used to be able to beat the SNES game in only a couple of hours. This game lasted quite a while longer. It is loaded with dungeons and boss fights.
- With the addition of the transitioning to wall-walking (appropriate term?), it adds a new layer into the puzzle solving mix. End boss fight is awesome!
Cons:
- Not very intuitive at times. There are points where I had to consult a guide because I was wasting so much time just looking around and not progressing. This includes multiple items that you don't NEED, but you want. I had to do some research to find one or two of them.
- Dungeon layouts. There are points where the dungeons rely too much on the wall walking, or are just not really that creative. Luckily, there are others that are great. Some of them are too short, but again, there are others that make up for that by being much tougher.
- 3-D doesn't really help all that much with judging positions. I found at times that I was misjudging jumps and tried switching between 2-D and 3-D, but for me, I still had trouble judging.
Overall, this game is a great mash-up between two games and it works. Boss fights are fun. There are a lot of bonus features thrown in. It was a lot of fun and I wish I had purchased it sooner.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Brought to life in 3D, this beloved, top-down world is the perfect backdrop for a sweeping new tale. Dungeons sink deep below the screen as Link and his attacks pop out, highlighting the nonstop action. The pace is faster than ever, especially since you can swap items on the Nintendo 3DS touch screen. Shoot an arrow, toss a boomerang, bomb a wall, then merge into a painting to slide between two worlds - all in a matter of seconds. With gameplay, visuals, and controls this smooth and consistent, no Zelda adventure has ever been so action-packed.
Use s to restrict 3D mode for children 6 and under.
