Return to an age of magic and heroes! When an evil magician named
Agahnim begins kidnapping young maidens in Hyrule in a quest to break
the imprisoning seal on Ganon, a young boy named Link is called upon to
stop him. Link must venture into twisting mazes, dungeons, palaces and
shadowy forests as he searches for the maidens and Princess Zelda.
Traversing both Light and Dark Worlds, he must navigate eight dark
dungeons, fighting evil enemies and huge bosses. Help our hero prevent
Ganon and Agahnim from shattering Hyrule forever. Whether you are a
young knight, a heroine-in-training or a seasoned warrior, The Legend of
Zelda: A Link to the Past will delight!
