About

Two worlds collide in an all-new adventure set in the world of Super
NES™ classic The Legend of Zelda™: A Link to the Past™. In this newly
spun tale, Link™ transforms into a living painting to cross into a dark,
parallel dimension mirroring Hyrule. Conquer the puzzles, traps, and
hidden rooms of deadly dungeons to save both worlds from certain doom!

Brought to life in 3D, this beloved, top-down world is the perfect
backdrop for a sweeping new tale. Dungeons sink deep below the screen as
Link and his attacks pop out, highlighting the nonstop action. The pace
is faster than ever, especially since you can swap items on the Nintendo
3DS touch screen. Shoot an arrow, toss a boomerang, bomb a wall, then
merge into a painting to slide between two worlds - all in a matter of
seconds. With gameplay, visuals, and controls this smooth and
consistent, no Zelda™ adventure has ever been so action-packed.

An all-new adventure in the deadly, beautiful world of The Legend of
Zelda™: A Link to the Past

Become a living painting to slide within walls and between two
dimensions at war

Sink into the classic, top-down world of Zelda™ like never before with
3D visuals at 60 FPS

Easily swap inventory items on the Nintendo 3DS touch screen to keep
the action coming

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds reviews and comments

A great forgotten entry.
The loaning system is a great spin on the usual Zelda game structure, the dungeons are fun, Switching between Hyrule & Lorule is fantastically implemented and the artstyle is beautiful.
«Sit back and relax»
«Underrated»
Letting you do the dungeons in any order was a fun twist on the formula and the 2D mechanic makes for great puzzles
A Link Between Worlds is the only installment I have no complaints about. It never made me overly frustrated nor left me wanting. It executed every concept flawlessly. It's core gimmick is legitimately fun and consistently enhances the experience. Its art style and instrumentation are timeless. Its mechanics are smooth and enjoyable. Its gameplay is always fun. Its puzzles are clever. While some elements are whimsical, nothing of consequence is ever contrived. It is a perfect Zelda game.
I great spin on the Zelda games, being able to do the dungeons in any order
A worthy successor to A Link to the Past.
