Limited strategy gameplay. Controls can be tough. Once you cast your rod you have to wait for it to come back before you can do anything. Sword doesn't always swing in the direction you think you're facing. Not Zelda like. Deleted after completing level one.
Don't fall for it...

It looks like it Zelda type of game. It is not at all. The game looks like it is open world. It is not, it is just puzzle levels in which you have to beat. If you want to pay for this thinking it is Zelda type of game DON'T. Only good thing that looks like Zelda is the art, it is pretty nice to be honest.
Great looking, but repetitive

I read a preview saying this was the best Zelda clone to come to iOS. Personally I wouldn't even compare the two. They are both top down action style RPG games, and it does try to invoke classic Zelda nostalgia, but after a few minutes you will find it is a quite a different game. Gameplay centers around the ability to swipe at enemies and use a grappling hook like fishing rod. Each level is set up as a short puzzle that must by completing by swiping down baddies and swinging yourself from island to island. There are upgrades and things to avoid, but that is pretty much the gameplay. New items and puzzle changes are regularly introduced, but they are small and don't do a lot to break thr repetition. This makes it hard to stay invested. Bosses are few and far between and most enemies are only fun to fight the first few times. All in all I would say it is a visually appealing game with little depth to the game play and story. Add a few change ups to the gameplay, mini bosses, and items and it would be a much more rewarding game. P.S. If you want the best Zelda clone for iOS Oceanhorn still takes the cake.
Fun game

Seems to be a fun game so far with puzzle solving and enemies to battle. Touch control is a nightmare, totally unresponsive. Joystick is the way to go. No problems with that. Enemies are probably too simple for young gaming diehards, but since I am neither, they are challenging enough for me. Love the Zelda feel to the game as well.
Nice art, repetitive gameplay

Maybe mistakenly, I though this would be something of a Zelda game. There is no exploration here. The puzzles are straightforward. The combat is slow slashing over and over. The game looks nice and is bug free so far, but I am not interested in finishing it.
Want More

One of the things I always think after playing a game I've enjoyed is "it's over? I want more!" Which is exactly what I thought after whooping skyfish and sending him back underwater with his tail between his...uh, tail?
Not like Zelda - more for little kids.

I got swindled by the other reviews and stills into thinking this would be like Zelda - it absolutely is NOT. It's well pitched for maybe 6-9 year olds, but even then it's SO linear and repetitive I'm not sure who to recommend it to. Levels are short, easy, and your upgrades are barely noticeable; only four per item, and no extra items discoverable. Gameplay is slow, repetitive and pretty dull. Levels are all entirely linear, with no secrets or discoveries. Save your money! Pass on this game.
