My thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass… (Spoiler Free!)
8 10 2007 
Well, I actually got this game and I must say, this is probably my favorite game for the DS that’s out right now!
Here’s my little mini-review:
Gamplay: 9/10
I absolutely LOVE this game. Although I never liked the boat-sailing aspect of Wind Waker, I love it in this game. The sea is a little smaller, for one thing, so it’s not as overwhelming. You can also control the boat’s route with the Touch Screen. The dungeons are a blast to play, too. Challenging puzzles, great use of the DS’ functions, and neat enemies make the dungeons really cool.
Controls: 10/10
Sure, they may be a little awkward at first, but after you get used to them, I think this game may have to best controls of any Zelda game. There’s some fun weapons that I could go into detail with, but this is meant to be spoiler free, so I’ll leave it there.
Graphics: 9/10
Could be the best graphics of any DS game out right now. Although in an earlier post, I claimed I didn’t like how big Link’s eyes are, they’re not too huge, and it matches the style of the game. In screenshots, the graphics might look jaggy, but they’re really spectacular in the game.
Length: ??/10
I’ve yet to beat it, so I’m not too sure.
Overall: 9/10!
A must-have for the DS. Pick it up today!
