The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

Overview

The story is set many years before the events of the first two Zelda games. The player assumes the role of Link as he journeys to save Hyrule, defeat the demon king Ganon, and rescue the descendants of the Seven Sages. It returns to a top-down perspective similar to the original The Legend of Zelda, dropping the side-scrolling gameplay of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. It introduced series staples such as parallel worlds and items including the Master Sword. This port is a de-compilation of the SNES ROM made to run on PC. A bunch of features have been added that are not supported by the original game. Some of them are: Support for pixel shaders. Support for enhanced aspect ratios of 16:9 or 16:10. Higher quality world map. Support for MSU audio tracks. Secondary item slot on button X (Hold X in inventory to select). Switching current item with L/R keys.
