The Legend of Zelda

Booklist


From Booklist, Copyright (c) American Library Association. Used with permission.

The Game On! series (6 new titles) takes readers behind the scenes of popular video game franchises to learn how their favorite games were developed and have changed over time. The books' clean layouts feature sidebar facts and captioned photos of the featured games, their creators, and respective gaming consoles. Short chapters, ranging two to four pages, give readers an overview of the gameplay, any record-breaking moments (sales, design firsts, etc.), and how different versions of the games have been received by fans. The evolution of Link's world of Hyrule is explained in The Legend of Zelda, which reveals that its fantasy setting and complex coding and gameplay set this game apart from the competition. Each volume features a "Level Up" spread that compares different versions of its game and a concluding time line.
