Medli’s Melodies: The 25th Anniversary Medley

The Legend of Zelda is 40 years old! Happy anniversary! I remember when I first got my hands on a copy of Skyward Sword. I hadn’t played many Zelda games at that point — only Ocarina of Time, a bit of Majora’s Mask, A Link to the Past, and everyone’s favorite: Four Swords (it was…

Zelda’s Study: Death and rebirth of the Zol

Slimes are odd creatures —creatures you may not expect to encounter in a vast majority of games. Despite this fact, they happen to be a rather common entry in the lexicon of standard RPG enemies.

Realm of Memories: Smarter than the shadow

A few years back, I received a collection of the various Legend of Zelda manga for Christmas. For days afterward, I delved into their pages marveling at the ways that stories such as Oracle of Seasons and Oracle of Ages were given new life by expansions to the story and more depth to characters like…

Yuga’s Art Gallery: Legend of Abbey Road

When you think about it, this blend of the Links and the Beatles makes sense.
