Product Description
The epic story of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker continues as Link finds himself lost in a new adventure. Link and Tetra, the leader of a band of pirates, discover a ghost ship in dense fog. Link falls into the ocean when Tetra gets into trouble, and he wakes up alone on the shore of a mysterious island. Throughout the game, Link collects sand for his Phantom Hourglass, which allows him to explore deeper and deeper into a time-limited dungeon in his quest to find Tetra. Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. The robust single-player adventure will have Zelda veterans and newcomers alike engrossed by the story as they move through the game with the stylus. A special two-player battle mode lets players connect locally or via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. One player controls Link as he tries to gather as many Force Gems as possible, while the other player manages the enemies who pursue Link. The replayability of these winner-take-all matches is virtually endless.

5 out of 5 stars My Husband loves this game!   January 6, 2009
Teri (Morgantown, WV)
I purchased this game for my husband to go along with his new DS for Christmas. I didn't really know much about the games, but recognized the Zelda series, and also had it recommended later by a friend who works for a used game store. It's January 6th, and I have pretty much lost him since Christmas. He is really impressed with the way the game has integrated all the special aspects of the DS into the game. He found the stylist a little frustrating at first, but quickly got over it. He is particularly into role playing games, so I would say this game is best for someone who is a little more mature because it can be complicated at times and you need to stay devoted to it, not because of content. Younger gamers may get frustrated or bored.


5 out of 5 stars Great game, wish there was another like it.   January 6, 2009
I enjoyed this game greatly, love all of the puzzles and little things you have to do in it. It may be harder for children under/or seven years of age, because involves some harder (for the age of 7) reading, the timing that you have to have for some things, and a deeper, detailed game.
I am really glad that this game was made. It is a great, great game, fun and at the same time a good game. Took me a while to beat it, and its not one of those games where you can get half-way through it in a very little time.
GREAT GAME!

4 out of 5 stars my first zelda game   December 24, 2008

I've never played a Zelda game, and this one is pretty fun. I'm used to moving characters with the joystick/pad, but moving with the stylus isn't that bad, actually. I paid $20, but I'm unsure if I would pay much more.
