11. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES)

Zelda II is Link’s first side-scrolling adventure and it’s… not great.

It’s one of the few Zelda games that I’ve not seen through to the finish and possibly for good reason. It does have quite a dedicated following, however.

10. Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition (Wii U/Nintendo Switch)

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition is fine.

It’s a nice homage to different locales, characters and enemies that have appeared throughout the history of The Legend of Zelda but the gameplay just feels a bit… Flat.

9. The Legend of Zelda (NES)

The game that kicked it all off!

The original Legend of Zelda is a fun game. It holds up just fine but can get pretty difficult, as is often the case with games of this era. It’s definitely one of the shorter games on this list and is probably worth a run-through just to see where it all began.

8. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD (Wii/Nintendo Switch)

Originally released on the Wii, Skyward Sword wasn’t received particularly well.

It had one of the more mid-tier Zelda stories and awkward motion controls. The story remains mid in the remastered version, however, the motion controls have been replaced by a more intuitive control scheme and it’s still worth checking out.

7. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask (N64)

Majora’s Mask is arguably the most polarising game on this list.

There’s a really good game hidden in there, full of extremely weird characters and one of the more bizarre versions of Hyrule. Sadly, many players bemoan it because of the fact that you have to restart and replay days over and over. Don’t let that put you off though. Majora’s Mask is a lot of fun.

6. Crypt of the Necrodancer: Cadence of Hyrule (Nintendo Switch)

It hurts putting this game so low on the list, but it just speaks to the quality of The Legend of Zelda as a series.

Developed by Brace Yourself Games, Cadence of Hyrule is like nothing else on this list. The game does see you traversing a version of Hyrule, fighting enemies and collecting items, however, at its core, it’s a rhythm game. You bop around to the beat of a variety of different Zelda tunes, moving and attacking enemies on each beat.

5. Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity (Nintendo Switch)

This one comes with a bit of a caveat, it’s only this high if you played (and loved) Breath of the Wild. If you didn’t you can go ahead and stick it near the bottom of the list.

While the Musuo gameplay won’t be for everybody, Age of Calamity implements it in a really clever Zelda-like way and expands on Breath of the Wild’s story perfectly.

4. The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Remake (GameBoy/Nintendo Switch)

This is where things start to get tricky. The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening Remake is a near-perfect reimagining of an already fantastic (and very weird) game.

Sporting a brand new art style that is like nothing that has come before it, Link’s Awakening remake captures all the weirdness from the original and brings it to millions of new players in style.

3. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (SNES)

One of the most popular Zelda titles of all time, A Link to the Past showed us exactly what Zelda games could be.

It was the first Zelda title to include a parallel version of Hyrule as well as many of the different items and mechanics that we see throughout later games in the series.

2. The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64)

Ocarina of Time was, for a very long time, considered the cream of the crop of The Legend of Zelda games.

When it was released on the N64, it was in many ways groundbreaking. Alongside Super Mario 64, Ocarina of Time laid the foundations for 3D games for many years and it still holds up magnificently today.

1. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Nintendo Switch)

Breath of the Wild is a masterpiece in game design. There’s so much to do, so much to see but it never ever feels like a burden.

It’s a traditional Zelda game, at least as far as the storyline goes, however, it builds on what we know and love from the series in so many meaningful and interesting ways that it is absolutely the best Zelda game on the Nintendo Switch.

The game’s influence is now really being felt around the gaming world and it will continue to for a very long time. Roll on the sequel.
