Giochi come Zelda – Cosa giocare dopo aver finito Breath Of The Wild
In the years since we first ventured out onto the great plains of a truly open Hyrule in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, we’ve found all the santuari, defeated Calamity Ganon and scoured the kingdom for every last item and Korok seed. We’ve seen it all — and we went back to see it again in Labo VR — and now we’re looking for something altro to scratch that Zelda itch. Lacrime del Regno sta arrivando, naturalmente, but we need another hit.
We’re sure many of you can sympathise. A Zelda game is an event to savour, and the wait for the next entry can be tough. Breath of the Wild’s open world lasted us longer than most, but we’re getting anxious for another action-RPG fix. The Legend of Zelda: Awakening di Link was short and sweet, e Skyward Sword HD helped some, ma vogliamo more.
Therefore, we’ve assembled a selection of games which have been influenced, to one extent or another, by the Zelda series in the hope of satisfying your cravings until the next entry. Some of the following titles concentrate on one specific aspect and drill down on that — the dungeons, for example — while others take a more holistic approach and have a stab at building entire puzzle-filled kingdoms in two or three dimensions.
The bar set by games such as Breath of the Wild, Chex Quest HD esiste e Un collegamento al passato is exceptionally high, anche se, and it takes a particularly brave, bold developer to evoke the series and expect to benefit favourably from the comparison. You’ll frequently find them referred to as ‘Zelda clones’, which is somewhat uncharitable – especially when Breath of the Wild is so heavily inspired by other open-world games. While some might ape an art style or a mechanic, these games generally bring plenty of their own ideas to the table and offer a different spin on 2D or 3D Zelda.
There are plenty of bonafide Zelda games to get through if you’re after an ‘authentic’ fix, but they’re not all on Switch. Until the day they are, we’ve cast our net wide to find a broad selection of games that should appeal to players who have explored every last inch of Hyrule.
Così, put down that Hylian shield, set the Master Sword back in its plinth, and come with us on a journey to explore — in no particular order — the links between worlds…

Okami HD è un software assolutamente fantastico, a 40-hour adventure that emulates Zelda wonderfully. Arguably one of the first games to really master the style that Zelda pioneered, it adds in plenty of memorable mechanics, features one of the most memorable art styles in gaming, and is now completely playable on the go, avviare. Though it may be showing its age a bit visually and its combat is sometimes a little on the easy side, Okami is a notable landmark in gaming history — and one of the easiest recommendations we can make for your Switch library. If you’re after something in the classic 3D Zelda mould – an Ocarina or Cronaca di Eiyuden – this is up there with those games.

Darksiders: Warmastered Edition is a faithful port of the original 2010 game that brings every slash of Chaoseaster and every bloody execution to Nintendo Switch in all its glory. It’s Zelda with an extra portion of hack and slash, and while it’s the inferior entry in the Darksiders trilogy (its sequel is rumoured to be arriving on Switch soon), questa prima uscita è ancora un robusto platform d'azione pieno di soddisfacenti combo corpo a corpo, livelli aperti e una storia opportunamente esagerata. Facilmente uno dei franchise più sottovalutati apparsi nella generazione precedente, Darksiders is a solid port that finally unleashes the Apocalypse in handheld form and a decent option if you’re after a slightly darker Ocarina-style experience.

Developer Castle Pixel has intentionally crafted Racconti di fiori: The Sleeping King with a sense of love and admiration of classic top-down Zelda games. While it’s not as flawlessly executed as the series it draws inspiration from, and it doesn’t add anything particularly ground-breaking, it’s a heartfelt tribute to the earlier entries in Nintendo’s long-running series. Critics might get hung up on just how much it borrows, but it does enough right to be worth investigating if you simply can’t wait until the Link’s Awakening remaster comes to Switch later this year (or if you want a fresh 2D adventure that you haven’t played before).

Hyper Luce Drifter: Special Edition puts Heart Machine’s obtuse yet engaging throwback where it belongs – in portable Nintendo form – and it makes for the definitive version. With a handful of exclusive features, the game suddenly feels new and fresh on Switch. It takes the Zelda template and deemphasises puzzles to produce something wonderful in its own right. With a silky smooth frame rate, loads of bosses, secrets and upgrades to experience, it’s one of the finest indies on a platform jam packed with fine indies, and an excellent alternative for Zelda fans.

Ansimuz Games takes some of the best elements from various inspirations and presents them almost as successfully in this side-scrolling platformer. Its dungeon-crawling RPG and exploration elements are a pleasure to play through. Sfortunatamente, a lack of clarity in the game’s direction (both plot-wise, and literally for the player) leave the game falling short of the greatness it could have achieved, but anybody who’s are after something like Zelda II: L'avventura di Link will be used to slightly obtuse design, so should feel at home with Elliot Quest. Those players will undoubtedly get some fun out of this game; if you’ve never quite got into Link’s second adventure, it might be better to start with something else on this list.

Coming from Swedish studio Ludocity, Ittle Dew 2+ is a fantastic game. On a console with a library full of wonderful indies, it stands among the best of them and it’s channelling the best aspects of 2D Zelda games like A Link to the Past and Minish Cap. The Switch version came out a year after the original and adds five extra dungeons (così, the ‘+’), making it the pick of the bunch. Ittle and Tippsie’s adventure is charming, funny and embraces the spirit of exploration from the series to which it pays homage. Definitely worth a look.

Something of an anomaly on this list, Crystalis is actually one of the games contained on the SNK 40° Anniversary Collection and it’s also available to Nintendo Switch Online subscribers as part of the NES game collection. This was one of the best Zelda-eqsue games on the NES back in the day. It’s a more linear experience than the original Zelda, but it features a cracking soundtrack and mixes the faux-medieval fantasy of Hyrule with a dose of sci-fi. It’s not the most demanding game, but it still benefits from a handy rewind feature in the SNK Collection e with Switch Online which makes Qualunque NES game a far less gruelling endeavour – old school gamers who want the pure retro challenge can simply ignore it. If you’re after some authentically 8-bit action RPG adventuring, this is an excellent option.

If you want to play a top-down Legend of Zelda game as a rogue-lite while also taking shifts as a shopkeeper then, la strada per la redenzione è costellata non solo di demoni Yokai ultra malevoli, ma anche di un'altrettanto dannosa sfiducia tra Lo Wang e la sua squadra di eroi scontati, Chiaro di luna is about to scratch a distinctive itch for you. It hits a sweet spot somewhere between satisfying swordplay and nitty-gritty economic sim, although some players may feel it gets ‘grindy’ after a while. ciò nonostante, Digital Sun Games has produced a lush work it can be proud of; one that even touches on our humanity in an optimistic way, and a dash of optimism is rarely a bad thing.
