Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
One of two new Zelda games for the Game Boy Color, Oracle of Seasons is the more action-focused of the duo. The Triforce has alerted Link to trouble in the land of Holodrum, where the General of Darkness has kidnapped Din, the Oracle of Seasons. The villain hopes to transform Holodrum into a wasteland by changing the order of the seasons. It's up to you to help Link save Holodrum by rescuing Din...

The game features more combat and less puzzle-solving than its sister title, Zelda: Oracle of Ages. Its mechanics and menus are similar to those found in the original Zelda Game Boy game--this is classic overhead role-playing at its best. The key item in this game is the Rod of Seasons, which allows Link to change seasons at will. For example, an impassable lake becomes a quick pathway to stroll by using the rod to change seasons from summer to winter.

Although this game is extremely enjoyable on its own, you'll want to use it in conjunction with Oracle of Ages. After you complete one game you'll be given a password that can be used in the other to enable you to begin with all your items, statistics and progress intact. Certain characters will appear only when you play both games, and by using a link cable, players can trade items. Game Boy Advance users will find a store that's exclusive to them.

This is one of the best Game Boy titles ever, though it may not appeal to younger players or those looking for an undemanding game. --Raymond M Padilla, Amazon.com

Product Description
One of the most highly esteemed digital adventures is back on your Game Boy Color console in two new games: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons. Both are independent games, but when they're linked between two Game Boy Color consoles via the separately sold Game Link cable, players can share items, uncover story elements, and unlock hidden areas in each game.

Using the Harp of Ages, Link must travel through time and space to save Nayru, the eponymous prophet in Oracle of Ages, who's been kidnapped by the evil sorceress Veran. By learning new melodies to play on the harp, players will travel to the past and affect changes in the present to solve the game's varied puzzles.

In Oracle of Seasons, players help Link embark on a quest to recover the Essences of Nature. To do so, he must first find the Rod of Seasons, a magical item that lets Link transform the landscape into the season of his choice, helping him overcome obstacles and solve puzzles. Ricky the kangaroo, Moosh the winged bear, and Dimitri the dodongo accompany Link on this adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Legend of Zelda - Oracle of Seasons, 11 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This game is not just a game, but a mind riddling puzzle. it shares all the great graphical graphics that Nintendo produced with us. A unique feature with this title is that if u link it with Legend of Zelda - Oracle of Ages, it will become the ultimate quest! for instance, when you link them, new people to talk to, new dungeons to explore will be revealed. Another feature is that through Oracle of Ages, you will recieve passwords, and when these are written in the last-linked Oracle of Seasons game, it will reveal unseen weapons and items. Also another great thing with these two titles is if you own a Game Boy Advance, you special owners will beable to get access to a special GB advance shop with other unique items. Overall, all RPG fans will love this game as others have.

5.0 out of 5 stars What can i say!?, 3 Oct 2001
By pearshape223@aol.com (East Sussex, England) - See all my reviews
WOW, this game is the best, like the last person said its just as good as the older game or even better. I have always loved the Zelda games but this has to be the best so far. Definatly worth buying as soon as you can.

Five stars is not enough! I give it 10!
