A pleasant homage to the 2D The Legend of Zelda games, with a sense that the studio could be bolder in adding more of its own identity. Still, it delivers good fun in a short, simple game that ultimately proves satisfying.

The game shows a great ability to leverage the charisma of its characters, combining it with a satisfying story and adrenaline-pumping combat. The relationship-building aspect is captivating and immersive, and although there are some awkward dialogues at times, it’s still enjoyable. The excellent price and the Brazilian Portuguese localization make this game a great recommendation for anyone looking to discover a title that deserves more attention.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is much more than just another game in the franchise. It marks the beginning of what could be significantly explored by the company. A stunning side-scrolling game that redefines many established concepts, featuring a splendid visual style already showcased in Link’s Awakening and further enhanced here. The game delivers fluidity in its narrative, entertains with the charm of its newest protagonist, and shows great potential to continue other stories that could involve her. Zelda demonstrated that heroes can fight with wisdom and mastery, and can excite and move players with that.

It’s a game that has aged poorly and unfortunately didn’t receive proper treatment from Aspyr. Issues that could have been fixed were left untouched. Still, it holds up thanks to its Star Wars seal of approval, further enriching George Lucas’ marvelous universe
