Favorite Classic Game → The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

Link to the Past has long been one of my favorite Zelda games; honestly, its ‘sequel’ Link Between Worlds is probably its only competition for favorite 2D Zelda game (ironically…)

I love the item mechanic for this game (something that threw me off about the following Zelda games), and the grand somewhat stereotypical heroic adventure story, and how just when you think you’ve figured things out, you get thrown into the dark world and realize there is so much more to this game than originally thought
