    O suprassumo dos jogos, o pai de todas as histórias e reviravoltas. com uma trilha sonora impecável, uma jogabilidade questionável, porém um zelda com masmorras incríveis e puzzles que requerem muito do cérebro. recomendo que todo gamer q se preze meresse, pelo menos uma vez, testar esta incrível obra de arte.

    Although this game became more and more confusing with the years, I can understand why this is the best videogame of all time.
    The camera movement is realy good, the characters are unforgetable and the dungeons are realy intresting.
    It would be nice to see a remaster of this game but not like the 3ds one.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm gonna be honest, I played the game having never played it before just recently, completed it to the max, and was fairly disappointed in the game, and the sole reason being the reviews most people here are just hyper nostalgic about a game they used to love and while yes the game has interesting mechanics and good dungeons designs it just didnt grip me because of the graphics and controlls (I know very old game) but not just that, the movement felt slow at times and combat unsatisfying, some parts just seem very underwhelming like the difficulty and puzzles which were way to easy in the game, I would of rated it higher but the build up and anticipation from all I have heard about made me crash hard.… Expand

    This game is amazing! Everything is so great about this Zelda masterpiece. I am a big Zelda fan and am currently playing Ocarina of Time. I have played totk, botw, skyward sword, and now Ocarina of Time. Ocarina of time is a classic Zelda game with a nostalgic twist. Not everyone will like Ocarina of Time because of its old graphics, but other than that it’s a simple masterpiece of a game.

    After years of being told this was the best game ever, I decided to play it and realized it was just a generic game with an industrial story. It looks like a game for kids, and that's fine, but it's far from a good game, it's not even in the all-time TOP200. The game is all about solving children's puzzles. If you like it, be happy. Children need to have fun.

Zelda ocarina of time no princípio, era um jogo que eu estranhava, mas quando saí de dentro da Grande Árvore Deku, as coisas se fizeram estranhas ainda mais, e eu acabei me apaixonando pelo jogo. O combate é tão delicioso, a movimentação do Link ligada a mecânica z-target são tão extremamente incríveis, que chegou a parecer que eu nunca se quer cheguei a jogar um jogo de verdade na vida. Aprecio tanto as magníficas dungeons são tão belamente desenvolvidas, e os cantos sombrios do cemitério de Kakariko são apavorantes. Lon Lon Ranch e seus personagens carismáticos. E a Saria que mostrou ser uma grande amiga. As músicas da ocarina, os itens magicos, e muitas mecânicas, a trilha sonora... Tudo isso, é o que possivelmente o torna o meu jogo favorito de todos os tempos. Eu amaria uma versão atual, expandindo o mundo e a lore de Ocarina of time, algo com o escopo de Zelda TOTK, que fosse fiel a ocarina of time, mas expandisse o mundo e as interações com os personagens que lá estão. Acredito que inclusive, seria uma chance boa de explicar a divisão da linha do tempo da franquia em três, explicar também, o que aconteceu com Navy...… Expand

    Can there be such a thing as absolute perfection? If there is, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time epitomizes it in the gaming world. Released in 1998, this game set the bar impossibly high, forever transforming our perceptions of what games could be. This monumental achievement transitioned us from the conventional 2D animations to a universe where games not only paralleled our world but transcended it.

    The plot is the heart and soul of Ocarina of Time. Its storyline is a zenith in the Zelda franchise that, even in 2023, remains unsurpassed. Apologies to Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom devotees, but Ocarina of Time simply plays in a league of its own.

    The game weaves a narrative that is as simple as it is complex, gracefully juggling themes rooted in Shinto, restoration of natural order, the inexorable passage of time, and the bitter necessities of premature adulthood. It tells a profound coming-of-age tale of a young boy thrust into adulthood to combat an evil only conquerable by an adult. This saga outshines any other coming-of-age story in existence.

    Ocarina of Time also stands as an exceptional example of 'showing' rather than 'telling'. In contrast to the contemporary norm of feeding audiences beliefs, this game brilliantly showcases scenarios that allow players to formulate their own understanding. It’s a testament to the game’s integrity, a quality significantly lacking in many contemporary games and movies. Ocarina of Time upholds integrity in its purest form, a trait that adds to the game's unique allure.

    The auditory experience of the game is nothing short of magical. Each soundtrack is a masterpiece, acting as the perfect companion to the narrative, painting an immersive atmosphere that bridges the divide between imagination and reality. From the enchanting melody of the Kokiri Forest, the haunting echoes of the Shadow Temple, to the inspiring tunes of Hyrule Field, the music score brings each scene alive with an intensity that is simply extraordinary.

    To say that The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is legendary would be an understatement. For decades since its release, no game, even within its own franchise, has been able to replicate the magic that Ocarina of Time so effortlessly captured. It's a lightning-in-a-bottle phenomenon that holds a unique, untouchable position in gaming history.

    I can't urge you enough to play this game if you haven't yet. It's more than just an entertaining pastime; it's a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that transcends the traditional boundaries of video gaming. Gift it to someone, or better still, play it with your children. Words, even as glowing as these, do scant justice to the magnificence of Ocarina of Time. It truly is a game that must be experienced to be appreciated.    … Expand

    OoT is a good game. No one in their right mind would say it isn’t. But to give it a 99 is steep. The game is fun and the story is great, but I think clouded by nostalgia.

    até hoje é o melhor jogo de todos os tempos sem discussão, diferente dos filminhos soníferos da sony que os fãboys baba ovo só porque é exclusivo, esse jogo de fato merece a melhor nota do site.    … Expand

    Zelda Ocarina of Time, despite its revered status, left me thoroughly unimpressed. The game's slow pacing and lack of variety made it a tedious experience. The convoluted storyline failed to engage me, and I struggled to understand the widespread adoration for this title. Regrettably, I must assign it a disappointing rating of 0 out of 10.

It's hard to be unbiased when the original game had such a life-altering experience for me. Growing up and not understanding the world as a young kid and then playing a game that feels childlike and embodies that sense of wonder, that the world is way too big for you. It does a remarkable job of contrasting that with the desire to be an adult and make an impact on the world. Growing up is hard and this game nailed it as an experience. That alone makes it the greatest game of all time, not to mention the level design, animations, sounds, characters, and visuals were so new at the time is it hard to comprehend. Maybe one of the first 3D open-world games. I will play this game over and over for the rest of my life.… Expand

I personally think the learning curve of the game is because of the clunkiness of the game and a few monsters not unfair but still not perfect. The dungeons at times are really not my thing. Many Zeldas have their "stone wall rooms" in their dungeons but this one here has really a lot of them with just a few details. You just feel that the dungeons basically are a few blocks of rock (except for the first three). I had a lot of fun with the Water and Spirit Temple nonetheless - yes the Water Temple, can you believe it and some of the most memorable moments in the franchises history are a part of this game in my opinion.

    This is a very good game, but this game is a bit overrated. At the time, of course, this game was revolutionary, but I didn't play this at the time, so I'm not reviewing it like I did. Looking at it compared to games now, however, it's still a very solid and fun game. The greatest game of all time, though? I would have to disagree.

Since its release, it has captivated millions with its enchanting tale, innovative gameplay mechanics, and immersive world. Even after all these years, it continues to stand as a shining example of what a video game can achieve
    .
    From the moment I stepped into the shoes of Link, I was transported to the mystical land of Hyrule. The game's beautifully designed environments, rich with detail and secrets, created an immersive experience that felt like a true adventure. Exploring the vast landscapes, from the lush forests to the treacherous mountains, was a joy in itself.

    The gameplay in Ocarina of Time is nothing short of exceptional. The introduction of the targeting system revolutionized combat, making battles intense and strategic. The clever puzzles found within the dungeons challenged my wits and rewarded careful observation and problem-solving. The game seamlessly blended exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving, resulting in a cohesive and engaging experience.

    One of the most memorable aspects of Ocarina of Time is its iconic music. The melodies of the ocarina still echo in my mind, evoking a sense of nostalgia and adventure. The soundtrack perfectly complements the game's different moods, enhancing the emotional impact of each moment. The melodic tunes and haunting melodies are a testament to the game's enduring legacy.

    The story of Ocarina of Time is an epic and captivating journey. As Link, players witness the rise of the villainous Ganondorf and the desperate quest to save the land of Hyrule. The narrative is filled with memorable characters, each with their own motivations and roles to play. The time-traveling mechanic adds a layer of complexity and intrigue, keeping players engaged as they navigate between different eras.

    Visually, Ocarina of Time has aged gracefully. While the graphics may not match the standards of today's games, the art direction and attention to detail are commendable. The distinct character designs, atmospheric lighting, and carefully crafted environments still hold up, immersing players in a world that feels alive and vibrant.

    Ocarina of Time offers a considerable amount of content and replay value. From collecting heart pieces and upgrading equipment to completing side quests and uncovering hidden secrets, there is always something new to discover. The game's longevity is a testament to its exceptional design and the sheer joy it brings to players.

    In conclusion, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a masterpiece that has stood the test of time. Its immersive world, innovative gameplay mechanics, and unforgettable story make it a landmark title in the gaming industry. Whether you're a fan of the Zelda series or a newcomer to the franchise, Ocarina of Time is an absolute must-play. Prepare to embark on a legendary adventure that will leave a lasting impression on your gaming journey.    … Expand
