    Love Zelda!

    This game is great! I love Zelda and this was just as good as the others. The way you move to the beat and the storyline is interesting. the beat is catchy the game resembles gameboy advance style games so it brings some nostalgia. I love how your able to play as different characters as well as a villain and with the extended package that came out with new music and characters makes it more fun would recommend for any Zelda enthusiast.

    A fresh zelda spin off

    The sprites and graphics in this game are great. The rhythm mechanics can take getting used to but is pretty fun. And obviously you buy this game for the music.. and its incredible.

    Great Zelda combined with Indie Darling

    Awesome music and Zelda game. Game changes ie Rouge-lite to keep the game new. Easily one of the best games on the switch.

    Great rhythm game

    You should get this game if you already like Crypt of the NecroDancer and LoZ music. It's a no brainer. It's also a good rhythm game that takes more strategy than the regular QTE simulator type rhythm games.

Save Hyrule—this time with the wisdom of Princess Zelda! The people of Hyrule are being stolen away by strange rifts—with a certain swordsman as well as the King of Hyrule and his advisors among the missing. Left alone, it’s up to Princess Zelda to save her kingdom in a brand-new adventure in The Legend of Zelda series!

Use echoes like water blocks to reach new heights, make bridges out of old beds, throw rocks at foes, or find your own combination of echoes to do things your way. You can even make echoes of monsters to fight at your side in combat! Use a variety of abilities to conquer rifts and dungeons across a vast Hyrule. To close the rifts to the Still World and save the people trapped inside, Zelda and Tri must first enter each rift. Once inside, they must use their combined powers to traverse broken terrain and dungeons with challenging bosses. You'll need more than just your echoes to get past all the obstacles in your way. Use Bind to make objects follow Zelda’s movements, or Reverse Bond to follow an object’s movements. You can also use a mysterious sword to transform into the powerful swordfighter form for a short time. With these abilities at your disposal, you’ll be fully equipped to tackle each challenge in your own way! Your search for the rifts will span far and wide and bring you into contact with plenty of folks who will make requests of you. Luckily you can use waypoints or a horse to get around! Travel off the beaten path to discover side quests and minigames. As you explore Hyrule, you’ll encounter all kinds of interesting folk—those dealing with problems great and small, and even some that just want to give you a fun challenge! You’ll even meet the engineer Dampé, helping him to create automatons and use them to attack and stun enemies. Equip accessories and visit Smoothie Shops for bonus effects.
