Zelda II: The Adventure of Link

Possibly THE worst Zelda game to date...

User Rating: 6.5 | Zelda II: The Adventure of Link NES

Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is not a good game. Sadly it is my least favorite Zelda game yet. Oh, how boring and pointless is this game! There was nothing in this game to keep me playing this game day after day.

Basically, this game is just Mario of Metroid without... without the Zelda or Nintendo feel... It's hard to explain. I guess Nintendo was just seeing how Zelda would do as a side-scroller. Obviously, not that successful. The only reason I would recommend this game is if someone were to just complete or start a Zelda collection. This game is not completely horrible, it does have a lot of good parts to it. The reason why I am giving this a 6.5 because, I can stand the game at times. It is just not the game for me to play all the time.
