The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (commonly known as BOTW ) is by far one of the best games I have ever played, definetly in my top ten favourite games of all time. This is the most recent installment in the Zelda series, released in 2017.

This release completely revitalised and revolutionised the Zelda formula, focussing more on the open world and freedom of the game, rather than the more linear form of the older Zelda games. As a beginner in gaming, botw is an incredibly forgiving game. It is by far the best game to get used to the Nintendo Switch controls on, and the freedom it gives in the sense of puzzle solving is great for new, inexperienced players.

The graphics of the game are incredible. Botw is host to a wide variety of biomes, between deserts, volcanoes, oceans, snowy mountains, vast plains, and despite being a game made more than 5 years ago the graphics are still stunning.

The character, Link is greatly written, and has an incredible story told through him. The story is told in a subtle way, that allows the player to pick up parts of the story through small prices of informational, which feels like a very natural way of building the story, as it is down to the players own exploration.

The map itself, while incredible from a graphics point of view is incredible, it is also an incredibly diverse map. There are so many different locations embedded with amazingly created cultures and backgrounds that creat such an amazing atmosphere to be in. Every little village has a different vibe, and they all are very welcoming. Or you can chill out by yourself atop a mountain or in your house in hateno village ( yeah, that's a thing ).

The gameplay aspect itself is very creative and just overall feel right. They are incredibly easy to grasp and there is a very small learning curve for both movement, puzzles and combat.

The puzzles are engaging and plenty. It always feels so satisfying when it works, and since botw has almost no wrong way to problem solve, you can be really creative in how you solve these problems!

All in all, very good game. The price is quite high, but I feel like it definetly is worth it if you can buy it. This game is great both as a standalone game, or for players with previous Zelda experience. If you are in the fence about buying this Gamez I hope I convinced you to buy it, you won't be disappointed.
