The Legend of Zelda: Mirror of Worlds
Zelda no Densetsu · ゼルダの伝説
A large rework of the first Zelda with much improved graphics, an all-new overworld and dungeons, and a story inspired by A Link to the Past, from the author of Perils of Darkness.
What it is
Mirror of Worlds is a full new adventure by The3Dude, who also made Perils of Darkness. It replaces the original's graphics with much more detailed ones, builds a big new world that uses the space of the second quest to fit, and tells a story inspired by A Link to the Past.
What's new in version 3
The 3.0 update was large enough that the author skipped straight from 2.3. New custom assembly code lets the game handle things directly that earlier versions had to work around, and Ganon's fights were redone: he is now visible, with new attacks and mechanics, a redesigned final battle and Silver Arrow timing that depends on the difficulty. The patch comes in three editions (Hero, Traveler and Legend).
Recent fixes:
- 3.3 closes an exploit that let you skip most of the eighth dungeon and adjusts several dungeons
- 3.2 fixes a Heart Piece that could be lost for good and tweaks Legend mode
- 3.3.1 fixes Legend mode
