Mixable

“Echoes of Wisdom is a hybrid of what Zelda was and what Zelda is now. In other words, it looks like it’s taking the overworld design and more structured dungeons based on puzzles from the old Zelda game and offers players a similar set of mechanics to the last two free-to-play entries: Tears of the Kingdom And Breath of the Wild“

The Verge

“The wait for the September 26 release date is now much more difficult. So far, the Tri Rod is a great idea for a Zelda adventure. Using it to solve puzzles and fight enemies in a clever way feels natural and engaging.”

Polygon

“The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom It may not have the massive scope of recent 3D Zelda games, but it looks to have the same innovative gameplay and player flexibility. Yet it plays like a classic Legend of Zelda game, combining old-school puzzle solving and dungeon crawling with ingenuity, creating a magical fusion of styles. Zelda’s first solo adventure feels like a winner.”
