Summary

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is the first Zelda game made exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS. It is an indirect sequel to A Link to the Past with the same version of Hyrule but with new characters and gameplay elements. Unlike the series' tradition, many areas of the world are accessible from the beginning of the game and the dungeons can be visited in any order. Puzzles are encountered not only in dungeons but also in the open world, a part of them revolves around the game's 3D visual effect. The 3DS touch-screen display shows the world, dungeon or map depending on where you are.

Storyline

After capturing Princess Zelda and escaping through a rift into the parallel world of Lorule, the evil sorcerer Yuga plan to use the power of the Seven Mages to resurrect the demon king Ganon. The young adventurer Link is called out to restore peace to the kingdom of Hyrule and is granted the ability to merge into walls after obtaining a magic bracelet from the eccentric merchant Ravio, which allows him to reach previously inaccessible areas and travel between the worlds of Hyrule and Lorule.
