    The Same But So Much More

    Starts out feeling like more Breath of the Wild, which is a amazing game, but it opens up and offers so much more in terms of content and adventure. So many more interesting and well constructed side quests. And the world feels so much bigger despite being sorta the same.

    Picked up the game and the art print on the release date from the local store. However, got a pickup reminder for the art print again several days later. Went to the store and found it was a mistake. Other than that, everything was great! The game is a masterpiece with no doubt.

    Easily the best game in the series, the game changes with each play style, and though it is harder than breath of the wild, you feel child like excitement when you figure out a puzzle. If you are on the fence about buying this game, dont worry you will not be disappointed

    Prior to playing this game I would say it was unthinkable that this game would come out and make Breath of the Wild look like a tech demo, but that's exactly what it did. This game was a joy from start to finish. Can't recommend it enough. It was perfect to me.

    Such an excellent game, I didn’t think they could possibly make a better game after Breath of the Wild. I stand corrected. This is by far my favorite Legend of Zelda game. Well worth the money for how long you can play and still have more to do.

    Tears of the Kingdom takes the premise of Breath of the Wild and runs wild (pun intended). Every ounce of the world has grown and changed, and I could explore it for hours on end. The crafting mechanics makes foraging and hunting monsters worthwhile too.

    Over the past couple years I have slowly been falling out of love with video games, likely due to a mix of growing up, gaining a whole lot more responsibilities, or the lack of interesting titles. Well, im glad to say that Tears of the kingdom has reignited my love in gaming.

    One of my favorite games ever. Its like BOTW but better, more to do more to explore, more mechanics to play around with and do crazy things with. Great experience overall can't put it down and can't pick up anything else to play with this in my life. Looks good on OLED switch

    If your a Zelda fan then this is a must have in the collection. While it sits on top of the open world experience of Breath of the Wild this one is hardly the same. Endless hours of fun and exploring. The building is such a fun new aspect. Highly recommend.

    I was blown away by this game. Map size, boss fights, all of it was so good. It takes everything Breath of the Wild set up, and cranks it up to 11. The final boss fight is an amazing experience, but I don’t want to say anymore so I don’t spoil it. Just go play the game.

    I’ve considered Breath of the Wild the greatest game of all time since it released. This game takes everything BOTW did and improves on it tenfold. Best Buy made it extremely easy to reserve a copy for me on release date and very convenient to pick up and start playing.

    This iconic game is not Breath of the Wild 1.5. The amount of content this game offers is staggering and the improved storytelling (and story) alone is worth experiencing this one. Throw in a killer soundtrack and crafting system, and why wouldn’t you get this.

    Just finished this game today. What an experience. One of the best games I’ve ever played, and my first console was an NES. You’ve read and watched the reviews that matter. Just wanted to add to the stack of perfect scores Nintendo has earned for this masterpiece.

    My son was waiting for game since it was announced. He waited anxiously until the day came, we went right after school on its first day of sale and he loves the game. He was saving allowance money to buy it, and for him it is worth every penny. So, yes, I would recommend it.

    Great game with major improvements from Breath of the wild. There are still a few nitpicks that I have but overall you definitely should play this. There is no need to play Breath of the wild due to characters not really mentioning previous adventures

    This game made botw (a game of the year winner) feel like a beta test. The features and abilities in this game make too easy to lose multiple hours just experimting and exploring. My prediction is this beats spiderman and Stanfield for another game of the year win.
