Link to the Past

Imagesource: https://archive.org/

Another classic that might have been part of your youth or childhood is Zelda.

Among others, Zelda 3 - Link to the Past will be very well remembered by some. Unfortunately, only a console title. Right❓

Nope. Not anymore!

Thanks to an unknown creator to be found on GitHub as snesrev we can now play Zelda 3 on Windows, Linux and macOS. The reimplementation in C requires Python3 and SDL2 depending on the platform - but that should not be a problem.

A perfect match (though unfortunately only for the German speaking part of our audience) comes from the phantastic team behind archive.org. The Zelda 3 Guide is available in extraordinary quality. 109 pages with all the information you need to successfully complete the adventure. 🧑‍🎤

Those who want to relive old times, and for whom the Zelda series has played a real role in their own digital past, will certainly get their money's worth here.

Important: You have to have the original ROM, gamefiles and assets are of course not part of the project.

Game on!
