    A zelda 2 re-imagine! Inspired by the worst parts of retro gaming. That's right! Out of the entire retro library, from DOS to the imaginary console Pico8, this mess takes all the worst parts and puts them into one bite size package.

It has the boring mazes of early nintendo titles, the disturbing lack of fanfare from all your favorite shovelware, and a non story so pretentious it might as well not exist.

    For all its giving no directions to the player, Elliot Quest will be loved much more by long time fans of the genre. Nonetheless, it's a fun and quirky addition to the WiiU library of indie games.

    Elliot Quest boasts a charming retro look and sound environment and its dungeons are very well designed and laid out. Unfortunately its performance is way below par and its gameplay mechanics make it too difficult and repetitive to play, while the locations outside the dungeons are too confusing to keep track of.
