    F*ck*ng masterpiece. Superior to any other Zelda in history (yes, even Ocarina of TIme).
    You have to play it before you die.

    Majora's Mask is one of the most unique and unforgettable games ever made. Astral Observatory is one of the greatest gaming soundtracks as well.

    I miss games like this with well developed storytelling. There was a preocupation of doing a good job and deliver a piece of art instead of just something that could be fun playing sometimes. This game will be a jewel of gaming forever.    … Expand

    Not as good as ocarina but better than most other Zelda games. Storyline is a bit dull, gameplay is good, some temples are good others are dry.

    Incomparable to Ocarina of Time. It improves in what is quite literally every single aspect of that game

    The game is very dark compared to other titles in the series, which is why i love it so much. It's filled with magical and depressing moments. Definitely a memorable and epic adventure.

    My score is 91 out of 100.

    Majora’s Mask is one of my favorite games in the Legend of Zelda Franchise. The concept of not wasting anytime with being timed with 3 (in-game) days before to moon crashes on Termina and ends humanity having the ending line of “You’ve met a terrible fate, haven’t you?” Plus it is very easy to make money in this game with the lottery.

    When I was younger, I hated the 24hr end of the world time travel gimmick of the game, it was frustrating and put me off of the game. It was NOTHING like Ocarina of Time. Therefore I cannot give a good review to something that actually deterred me from playing.

    Secondly, I still hate the timegating to this day and feel it was too complex for an E rating.

    A masterpiece in gaming history.
    Majora's mask was able to become one of the most beloved Zelda franchise video games with only a year in development.
    While this is a hot take, I truly believe that Majoras mask is a better sequel to a big Zelda game than Tears of the kingdom is. While tears of the kingdom is able to shake up the gameplay in many interesting ways, it's apparent that only    A masterpiece in gaming history.

    On the other hand Majoras mask was able to completely flip the world presented to us and come out on top as a game that can stand alone as a great. It achieves this with an incredibly provocative storyline backed with powerful music and diverse gameplay.    … Expand

The side dungeons were also super fun such as the thieves hideout and the well. The masks were an excellent system that gave this game so much to do in it. Collecting all the masks were very rewarding and interesting - also gave a cool reward at the end as well. The fierce diety mask is probably one of the best rewards in gaming. The best dungeon is the stone temple for obvious reasons. Majora as a boss was also very cool. The open world was also amazing as it was varied and felt alive. Overall a masterpiece of gaming in terms of side quests.… Expand

    A fantastically eerie game with loads of fun in it's mask gameplay system. Fantastic soundtrack as usual, alongside multiple improvements due to the nature of it being a sequel. However, alongside it's N64 brethren the aging cracks are quite obvious with poor camera controls and often shotty visuals only saved by the great artistic direction.

    Majora's mask is weird, depressing and the most unique game in the franchise, but it is an absolute treat because of that. The oppressive atmosphere and straight up terrifying themes combined with odd but likeable characters makes this one of the most memorable Zelda experiences.

    Many people prefer this one to Ocarina of Time, in my opinion it is more than compliant but it has a couple of flaws that don't make the experience as good as in the previous game, also a Great game

    One of the best 3d zelda. One of the first video games to have open world depth in the genre: characters that have their own daily routines and different ways of interacting with the player.
    The game is still very enjoyable nowadays, although it has some not-so-comfortable controls.

    Where Majora rises to the top is its concept – three days to save the world. The execution of the idea is flawless: time means everything and the player always has to be aware. The save system is absolutely perfect, letting players feel comfortable in controlling time but still keeping them on the edge of their seats when things get hairy.
