    Tri Force Heroes feels like it should be an additional mode for the rerelease of The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker for the Wii U cause as an independent game even for the 3DS it does not work. It is a decent co op but it fails as a single player cause the two Link clones is mindless. It is this reason that causes it too have a very short replayable lifespan. Once Hyrule Heroes for the 3DS isTri Force Heroes feels like it should be an additional mode for the rerelease of The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker for the Wii U cause as an independent game even for the 3DS it does not work.

Once Hyrule Heroes for the 3DS is released Triforce will be ignored and expect a price drop next year.… Expand

    Back of the box says download play is 2-3 vs/co-op.
    Incorrect, there is no download play in vs, and you must have three for co-op.
    I should not have to check to see whether or not I can play with just two players when the back of the box says I can, but clearly I should have taken my phone out and looked it up.

    This game is just like the two Four Swords games: annoying, tedious, over-complex and familiar, plus the absolute worst villain and some awful multiplayer sections keep kicking this game in the boonies.

    The game is NOT a mainline Zelda title, despite the name carrying "The Legend of-" infront of it.
    It's a mediocre-decent dungeon crawler that is many stepds down from Four Swords Adventures on the Gameucbe which could and should have been ported on the 3DS or Wii U instead of making this!
    Also it's pretty much unplayable alone. I give 1/10 for some efforts and the unique & cute clothes    The game is NOT a mainline Zelda title, despite the name carrying "The Legend of-" infront of it.

    With the poor art design and bad concept, I would give this game a 4 swords out of 10

    This game had SO MUCH potential, but the region lock and matchmaking based on the stage you're going to play kills it before you can even play it. I literally waited 1 hour for a match in 3 consecutive days, didn't get a SINGLE match. So unless you have friends that like Nintendo (which is rare) or can afford a 3ds (even rarer in my country) this game is useless piece of plastic.

    You need to play with friends which is super annoying. Even playing with friends is not very enjoyable. This game was very disappointing and I wish there was a stable 1 player

    Caters to hardcore Zelda fans who want to pass the time while waiting for the next full breed Zelda-entry: The Legend of Zelda WiiU. It has moments of fun puzzle experiences, but it requires you to have 1-2 good friends you can go on a local network.

    A hard game to dislike, but equally hard to love.

    Despite being a low budget game built with assets from A Link Between Worlds, Tri Force Heroes is a great Zelda designed for co-op. [13/2015, p.74]
