The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons is one of two Zelda titles released for the Game Boy Color, the other being Oracle of Ages. The game retain many gameplay elements from Link's Awakening such as the graphics, audio and top-view perspective. It also features eight dungeons and a large overworld to explore like in the previous games. Oracle of Seasons is said to be more action-oriented than its counterpart being more puzzle-oriented. After completing one of the two games, both can be linked to form a single linear plot with an alternate ending. Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages were often credited as being two of the top games for the Game Boy Color.

This one is all right, but I enjoyed Link's Awakening a lot more. The difficulty here seemed a bit frustrating. Many bosses were just re-used from the original game. Changing seasons was neat at first, but quickly became tedious just to get one treasure chest in an area. Having only two item slots was really obnoxious. While that was also …

Changing seasons was neat at first, but quickly became tedious just to get one treasure chest in an area. Having only two item slots was really obnoxious. While that was also in Link's Awakening, I don't remember it bothering me that much when I played that game. Overall, this one is okay. I wish I had played Ages first to make the combat in this one easier. But that's my own fault I suppose. On to Ages!

I've been playing this without a guide as much as possible, but sometimes I go on zeldadungeon just for fun to read comments and hype myself up, and I accidentally spoiled myself on how to get the level 2 sword. Now I have it and it really does not feel earned... I got all the gems all on my own …
Read moreI've been playing this without a guide as much as possible, but sometimes I go on zeldadungeon just for fun to read comments and hype myself up, and I accidentally spoiled myself on how to get the level 2 sword. Now I have it and it really does not feel earned... I got all the gems all on my own tho, and I'm really proud of that :) Anywayy. I went on to the ancient ruins and seriously, the music up there on the way to the dungeon was so good! Really enjoyed that. The dungeon itself was a bit frustrating, but still pretty good. Manhandla was a super tough boss.

Finally found the fifth dungeon! (Was super easy to find but for some reason I'd never gone there before.) I'm at the boss and it's kicked my ass a few times now, so I'll try again later today. The dungeon was a very quick and easy one compared to the others so far, and I just had so much fun …

The magnetic glove -mechanic is so clever and fun and now I can do so many things around the overworld! I love this game <3

I'm really starting to get into this game. I had a bit of trouble falling in love with it at first, probably because I just came from playing Majora's Mask, which I absolutely loved, and which was also very different. However now , while completing the fourth dungeon I feel like something clicked in my brain, and now I feel …

The Poe Sisters have got to be the hardest mini-bosses of all time. Possibly hardest bosses. Absolutely no mercy.

I'm two temples in, stuck on the third for the time being, but enjoying the game quite a bit. I never played it back in 2001 when it first came out, though I remember having played and beaten Link's Awakening on my GBC a couple dozen times. This is a nice blend of the unexpected and the nostalgic.
