It is ten years to the day since Ganondorf was banished to the Twilight. An era of peace reigned in Hyrule. Now, the tides have turned, and the Zora race is deteriorating. With the Hero of Time gone, who will save the doomed water tribe? Only Link, a child from Kakariko, holds the courage to take on this dangerous task. Link travels to the past to save the Sage of Water from death, which should have saved the dying race. Instead, evil has spread, and Link must have the courage to collaborate with all the races and solve this mystery.LoZ: RoS is a more unique Zelda. While keeping the good theme of puzzles, dungeons, and items, Realm of Shadows revives many engines of the past, such as the ability to play as another character (seen in MM as Kafei) It also makes way for newer engines, taken from other games.
Realm of Shadows brings back a classic character, Sheik. Taking part in a new engine, Sheik will partner with Link on his quest in a M&L:SS style buddy system. While the player will not have the ability to switch between the two characters whenever they wish, there will be plenty of traps and puzzles involving teamwork.
Stay tuned; more to come!
