Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, 'The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass' offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. But time grows short, and only the Phantom Hourglass can buy Link the minutes he'll need to survive.

Many months have passed since the events of 'The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker', and Link, Tetra and Tetra's band of pirates have set sail in search of new lands. They come across a patch of ocean covered in a dense fog, in which they discover an abandoned ship. Tetra falls into danger when she explores the ship alone, and Link falls into the ocean when he attempts to rescue her.

When he washes up unconscious on the shores of a mysterious island, he is awakened by the sound of a fairy's voice. With the aid of this fairy, he sets off to find Tetra – and his way back to the seas he once knew.

'The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass' is controlled almost entirely by the stylus. Using the touch screen, players direct Link's movements and attacks: A sweeping motion triggers Link's spin attack and tapping characters makes Link speak with them. The stylus controls offer a more intuitive means of playing the game and open up new possibilities for puzzle solving.

The game action takes place primarily on the touch screen, with a map on the top screen. However, the player can inspect the map on the touch screen and make notes using the stylus. The notes on these maps are saved for review on the top screen during game play. Players use the map to chart courses for their ships, too. Using the stylus to draw a path through the islands, players set their ships' courses. Then, as the ships automatically follow the paths drawn, players can control their ships' cannons to target oncoming enemies.

Key Features

The stylus makes controlling Link easier than ever. Tap on the screen to make Link move, or sweep the stylus around him to swing the sword. Players can even draw a path for his boomerang and send it flying into hard-to-reach targets.

Players can stash the map on the top screen for quick reference or drop it to the touch screen to make notes, study enemies, or chart a path for their boat to follow while they man the cannons.

Compete with a friend over a local wireless connection: Guide Link through special dungeons to capture the Triforce, or command the forces that oppose him.

Boring

11 November, 2009

This game is great if you enjoy jabbing a screen with a plastic stick to do everything. The boat sections are tedious and slow, and the dungeons are easy. This is the worst Zelda game released on a Nintendo console.

Probably the best game so far on the DS

5 May, 2009

Probably one of the best games on the Nintendo DS. It uses all the functions of the DS extremely well and there were times when I thought "wow" because you just wouldn't expect to have to do certain things on any other console games.

You will have to make sure you have time to play this though because once you put it down you will forget where you are and what your next task in the game is.

Best DS game!

21 June, 2008

This is the best game that i own on the DS because it is full of adventure and puzzles.
Even though some bits can get very tricky it is still an amazing game.
