| Zelda II: The Adventure of Link | Nintendo | 1988 | There is an extremely obscure bug in the game whereby the attack value which normally maxes out at 8 can be set to something else. "0" and "F" have been seen. Both of these, with two exceptions, will allow Link to kill any enemy with one hit. The exceptions are the Thunderbird boss which requires one hit but the thunder spell must still be cast on it first. Shadow Link still requires 8 hits. No one has discovered what triggers this bug. It can be saved and in fact cannot be undone from a saved game.*** [17]*** [30]*** [49]*** [1]*** [52]*** [37]***Link returns to Hyrule to search for the Triforce and to awaken Zelda from an endless sleep. Embark on a quest to find the Triforce of Courage and save Hyrule from ruin. Learn magic spells, talk to people in towns to get clues, collect items to increase your power and explore six palaces where the underlings of the evil Ganon await you. This sequel to the Adventure classic uses a side-scrolling visual engine unique to the series for more technical combat, and features more in-depth world roaming as Link encounters townsfolk while on his quest.***A year and a half after the original Famicom Disk System release in Japan, Nintendo brought this game to the west on cartridge. Desptite being a quite good game, Zelda 2 is my least favorite of the classic Zelda games. It surely explored a new gameplay style but the levels were too difficult and I didn't like the random enemy encounter battle system (the similar "[game=#7581]The Battle of Olympus[/game]" would prove to be much better balanced in my eyes). Graphics and sound are very good for its time. Nintendo understood how to program their 8-bit console. | labelimagesubject |
