The famed, the most greatly reviewed and criticized game of the Legend of Zelda series, will be reviewed by yours truly, Snowdeath! Ocarina of Time is one of the most sought after game on the N64, and one of the most famous Legend of Zelda game overall. What makes it even better, is the fact it has a psychotic sequel, called Majora’s Mask. That’s a different story for a different time.

Well, as for information regarding to this famous game… It was released on November 21, 1998 as a N64 cartridge. Ocarina of Time was widely considered by gamers and reviewers alike to be the greatest game ever created. The question - is that true? Read on.

Graphics – 9

At the time when it was released, 3D was rare. Yet Nintendo made it smooth, and made the world breath-taking. It had full charm over the game, made people interested in the game just because of the graphics. The colors weren’t too dark, too bright, it was perfectly laid out. Sure, it may not look realistic, but it was in the flow of the game exactly. 9 is the score for the graphics.

Sound – BLANK

( I’m fully deaf in both ears, so I can’t review this section, otherwise it would be a bluntly obvious lie. )

Addictiveness – 10

A whooping 10! Why? Ocarina of Time is as addictive as it can be, ever. That’s in my opinion, though. For ten years, I’ve been playing this loveable and epic game, over and over again. Even if it is a full RPG story-line based, there is a certain enchantment that lulls you into playing it again, maybe after a week or a month, depending on your tastes. What I think is that you will DEFINITELY re-play it eventually.

Story – 10

10 again! The story-line of this Legend of Zelda is immersing, highly detailed and intricate. It is well written, and well thought, and it shows clearly in the game. A lot of gamers played this game just for the story-line, along with defeating the game. The story within the game is a huge part of the game-play, and since it is a perfect fit with the game, I give it a 10.

Depth – 8

The first dungeon, inside the Deku Tree, were extremely simplistic for those who did play a RPG before, but it got progressively harder, especially at Jabu Jabu’s Belly, which can be extremely confusing if it is your first time. The Water Temple is what made me give it a lower score. It is nearly impossible to pass that level unless you have hours and hours of free time and a bottle of Advil for your poor brain. However, the dungeons and the mini-dungeons, and even the quests in it are extremely fun and enjoyable for hours, which is why I give it an 8.

Difficulty – 7

The natural controls for the game are a N64 controller, and it’s hard to control Link in the game with a keyboard, since all of the buttons on the controller is used. I had to reconfigure my keyboard buttons several times to have satisfaction of the game, and even so, it’s annoying to have to double-click the screen to get smooth Y + X angles, so I can precisely shoot my bow / hookshot at whatever target. Nevertheless, still very nice!

Overall – 9.4

This is my first-ever played video game, so I might be biased, but this is one of my ultimate favourite games ever. If you haven’t played it, I tell you, play it NOW. Discard whatever you were doing before you read this review, play it now. It is a masterpiece of time. No, I am not overrating this. It is actually great, maybe not perfect, but that charms up the game too.

In all, I love this game. That’s all. It has a special place near my heart. When I was young, I laughed and cried out in fear while playing this game. Now, I repeatedly play this game and simply beat up Skullutas, check out the funny Mario pictures at Hyrule Castle, and just explore. It is legendary, that’s all.

Ocarina of Time is by far my favorite game ever to be created. Not only for the N64 console, but in general.
