    Overview

    No Caption Provided

    Zelda's Adventure is a top-down high-fantasy action-adventure game developed by Viridis and published by Philips Interactive Media for the CD-i in Europe on May 10, 1996. A North American release was planned, but later cancelled.

    Intended to released in late 1993, months after the other two CD-i spin-offs of Nintendo's The Legend of Zelda series (Link: The Faces of Evil, and Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon), Zelda's Adventure is a top-down game similar to the original The Legend of Zelda. Rather than the hand-drawn cartoon art and cheesy humor from the other two spin-offs, the game makes use of digitized actors, live-action cutscenes, and a more generic fantasy adventure.

    Like Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon, players take the role of Zelda herself (rather than the series protagonist Link) as she sets out to rescue Link from the Lord of Darkness "Gannon". As Gannon has taken over the land of Tolemac, Zelda must collect the celestial signs throughout the kingdom before challenging Gannon.

    Like Philips' other CD-i games based on Nintendo properties, the game was developed due to a failed partnership between both Philips and Nintendo regarding a CD-based add-on for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and is not acknowledged or endorsed by Nintendo themselves.
