    Same formula with a twist.

    While gameplay is very reminiscent of classic top-down Zelda, the new features make for an interesting change of pace. Puzzles and combat are more open ended giving you more ways to solve and fight.

    I had a blast playing this. It's a shorter Zelda game, but so fun. The echo mechanic is awesome and it was really cool to get to play as Zelda. The story is interesting too! It's a bit too short for me to be comfortable paying $60 for it, but with a handy Best Buy coupon or reward discount... definitely a good buy.

    Feels like an evolution of the traditional games, but with a twist exclusively for Princess Zelda.

    I’ve kept up with the Zelda franchise and very much appreciated the new approach taken with this game. While its not the longest to play through it was well enjoyed. There is a lot of freedom in how you go about playing this game which allows everyone to have their own unique experience.

    This game is so fun! Who would’ve known a bed is so versatile lol. It’s such a great way to be creative. You almost feel like you’re cheating sometimes with some of the unique ways to do things.

    A gift for our Zelda fan, he always asks for all the new releases as this was for his Christmas gift. The shipping arrived fast and game was in perfect shape. He had no issues playing it, was great!

    I absolutely adore this game. Its a lot fun, not overly complicated and has a charming art style. I gave it 4 stars because there are two things that I do not like. FIRST is the slow down. Sometines and not a lot, the game slows tona crawl in certain instances. SECOND, the menu system for all the echoes gets cumbersome while searching for the echo that you need. Overall a very fun and well made game. Certainly would recommend it.

    Good mixture of 2D and 3D zelda game formulas. Difficulty level-wise, it is not challenging especially if you have a good spacial awareness, and a good imagination. The game itself was enjoyable and refreshing new take for Zelda franchise.

    At first, I wasn't caring for the controls of the game, but as I played it, Zelda grew on me more and more. I definitely recommend giving this game a shot. Also, I did an in store pickup and received my pre-order bonus without issue. Hopefully, those who haven't received their pre-order bonus will soon!

    The latest entrance of the Zelda games has Zelda as the main character! It's now your turn to save Link. The gameplay is a mixture of the old school games with the classic dungeon formula, but it's mixed with freedom and creativity of the Breath and Tear games.

    My favorite 2D Zelda ever.

    Title says all you need to know. Echoes of Wisdom is my favorite 2D Zelda game. That's high praise with some stellar 2D games out there with the legendary LTTP and 3DS' Link Between Worlds. I dont say that lightly, nor do I think many will share my opinion, but for me this one's my favorite 2D Zelda to play. Essentially, its BOTW as a 2D game. As someone who adored the openness & freedom that BOTW gave the Zelda franchise, seeing this in a 2D game was perfect. Also, its just chalked full of Zelda-isms and easter eggs. I guarantee you there's something from your favorite Zelda game somewhere in this one. I know its a big departure with Zelda and echoes vs. Link and his sword, but its adds a strategic element thats really rewarding when you get creative with the mechanic. I just loved it.

    An amazing game. It borrows from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom for some of the mechanics but looks and feels like Link to the Past and Link's Awakening. I am almost finished with the game but it has been very fun so far.

    I bought this for my girlfriend because she is a major Zelda fan and so far, she has forgotten I exist! She’s in love with this game, and seemingly doesn’t want to rush through it because it “lasts longer that way”. Great game and definitely a fun one for any fan of The Legend of Zelda.

    Overall fun game. A departure from Link as the protagonist, putting it into the hands of the Princess with clever mechanics and satisfying puzzle solving, bringing to life that sometimes there isn't always one solution to a problem.

    Bought this for my kids but I’ve been playing it more than them. :) Expansive world, fun characters, easy gameplay, side quests, bosses, RPG elements. Far better than I expected. This game is great for everyone.

    After playing botw and totk this is a welcome change. It's fairly different from the other two and yet it does have it similarities. Just a fun game to pick up and get lost in. Graphics are amazing and the controls work great. The new echo creating is awesome and very useful. Great game.
