The Game
As said, A Link Between Ages is a action-adventure, top-view game. Gameplay its similar to the classic Zelda games, but with special emphasis on battles.

Combat
The central piece of our game is the sword based, agile combat. The player has full control of the direction of his or her attacks, and the ability to make a quick dodge movement.
But be careful! Dodging and attacking consumes stamina, and you can’t do them if you are low! Stamina recharges automatically when you are not doing any of those actions.
Exploration
The world of A Link Between Ages is vast an full of secrets. Explore the map, and you will encounter different items that will increase your arsenal.
Dialogue
You are not alone! Talk to NPC to recollect info about the story and the world.
Story
Play in two stages of the life of Link! Follow him in a tale of revenge against the forces of Ganon.

A Link Between Ages doesn’t require installation. Only download the latest release, uncompress it, and look for the executable inside the folder. You can see the controls inside the README file.
