But when this game launched and fans discovered what it had to offer them, they paved the way for it to become the best game in the series. All thanks to its innovative ideas and beautifully distinguished world. A world that was a huge sea with small islands in it.
Majora’s Mask
Zelda: Majora’s Mask is considered by almost everyone to be a sequel to the Ocarina of Time. Telling a dark tale of a world’s destruction, this game is undoubtedly the most inventive in the series.
Its time-loop mechanic really keeps players hooked on this exciting game. They can plan their time with it, decide when and how they would do what, and of course, save the world. If nothing else, the moon crashing into earth is something of a big deal, and players constantly work to stop this from happening.
Ocarina of Time
A very skeptical Link is informed by a huge tree of some weird problems to come. He sets out on a journey to inform others of it. This game has a time span of numerous years. Considered by many to be the best title in this series it was Zelda series’ first step into the world of 3D.
And the best part is that, to this day, this game holds up pretty well.
