The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 2006

Is it still worth playing?

Nintendo EAD's 2006 Zelda game for the Wii and GameCube, directed by Eiji Aonuma, with an HD remake for the Wii U in 2016. Over a century after Majora's Mask, Link tries to keep Hyrule from being engulfed by the Twilight Realm, a corrupted parallel dimension, helped by an imp named Midna. Controls follow Ocarina of Time, with context sensitive buttons and targeting, and Link uses a sword, shield, bow, boomerang and bombs across nine dungeons, a large overworld, horse travel and Midna's warps. In the Twilight Realm Link becomes a wolf with no sword, shield or items, who attacks by biting, moves faster, digs and tracks scent. The Wii version uses motion controls and a mirrored world. Nine dungeons with distinct themes and tools, joined by a large overworld, and two ways of moving and fighting in one adventure, are why it is worth playing now.
