Explained simply
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a 1998 adventure game in which the young hero Link travels across Hyrule, a fictional land, to stop a threat to its people. It was one of the series’ first games in 3D, and players explore, solve puzzles and fight enemies as the story unfolds.
The game was made by Nintendo, and its players have kept sharing memories of playing it over the years. For some, it was a shared family or friendship experience; for others, particular places and encounters made a lasting impression.
A remake for Nintendo’s upcoming Switch 2 has brought renewed attention to the original. Comparing the two may show how its world and atmosphere translate for a new generation of players.
