Release Date: September 26, 2024
A spin-off of the popular series from Nintendo. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom allows us to play as Princess Zelda and our task is to save Link and other inhabitants of Hyrule. We use the Tri Rod gadget to clone items and enemies to have them fight for us.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is an arcade-logic game and a spin-off of the best-selling The Legend of Zelda series. The development and release of this game was overseen by the Nintendo company, which is in charge of the brand.
In The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom we play as Princess Zelda herself. After Link, the main protagonist of the series, managed to save her from Ganon, he was pulled into a mysterious rift. As it turns out, such rifts in space-time began to appear throughout Hyrule and cause the disappearance of other characters.
The fairy Tri unexpectedly lends a helping hand to the protagonist and gives her an artifact known as the Tri Rod, which can clone elements of the environment. The princess sets off on a journey to investigate the new mystery of her kingdom, to ward off danger and save the affected residents of Hyrule.
In The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, we see events from a bird's eye view. The game focuses on solving environmental puzzles and other problems encountered along the way. We deal with them using objects cloned with the Tri Rod - the copies are called echoes.
They allow us to overcome terrain obstacles, get to hard-to-reach places and neutralize opponents. Interestingly, the artifact allows us to duplicate not only specific objects such as stools or boulders, but also nature elements (which allows us to create water blocks), and even adversaries.
Enemies must first be defeated before they can be cloned, but it is still a good tactic since a copied enemy can fight on our side.
The graphic design of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom was maintained in the cartoon style known from The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening.

MonsterVine: 4.5 / 5 by Spencer Legacy
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is an exciting new take on the series formula that takes some big swings and largely succeeds.
NookGaming: 7 / 10 by Isaiah Parker
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is an ambitious change to an old formula that’s stifled by a lot of growing pains. It’s still a decent game, but they wound up pushing the formula too far in some areas, and not far enough in others. The end result is an experience that’s stuck in a rather awkward middle ground. It’s still Zelda, so expect a lot of polish (besides performance) and charm, but this time it felt as if it came at the cost of some much-needed substance. I’m happy that 2D Zelda is finally back, but it’s clear that there’s a lot more work to be done for this format to reach its full potential.
GamingBolt: 9 / 10 by Pramath
Echoes of Wisdom is a great maiden adventure for the franchise's eponymous princess, marrying old and new convincingly, and setting up a foundation for 2D Zelda games to thrive alongside their bigger 3D cousins.
