About The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds is a puzzle and adventure game for the Nintendo 3DS, released on November 22, 2013. Nintendo EAD Software Development Group No.3 developed it. Nintendo published it. It is part of The Legend of Zelda franchise and follows an earlier entry in the series, returning to a familiar Hyrule.

The game is played in single player mode from a third person, bird's-eye isometric view. It is set in a fantasy version of Hyrule with historical and open world themes, and it takes place in a parallel world. Players can reach many areas from the start, and the dungeons can be tackled in whatever order the player chooses. Puzzles appear both inside dungeons and across the wider world, and some of them make use of the handheld's 3D effect. The touch screen shows the map, the world, or a dungeon depending on where the player is.

The game is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB and PEGI 7.
