This game is great fun! I had tons of fun with my brother's playing this together. It blends together a mix of cooperative and competitive aspects in the game. The story mode of the game involves you and your friends trying to accomplish different missions during the game. The only thing is that the game is slightly biased towards greedy players. This makes the pace somewhat hectic as your try to scramble through a level as fast as you can so you can get more force gems than the other players. Most other Zelda games involve exploration and taking your time, so this is one thing that kind of threw me off. The other thing that threw me off was the fact that you need a GBA and link cable for each player. This is kind of an inconvenience but it makes for some very interesting gameplay. I had a blast playing with and against my brothers with this game.
