“We actually see A Link to the Past as the real sequel to The Legend of Zelda”. The Legend of Zelda series is now 40 years old, and in that time we’ve seen plenty of sequels, spin-offs and remakes. One title which stands apart from the rest of the lineage is 1987’s Zelda II: Adventure…
The base-building, horde vaporizing Diplomacy is Not an Option left early access last year to a pretty warm reception by those who’d followed its development.

Close but no Jafar. Since its somewhat rocky release on Switch back in 2022, Disney Dreamlight Valley has redeemed itself through several updates and a plethora of DLCs which can make any Disney fan happy.
