Well, the time has come. As Zelda Month 2015 comes to an end, PBG bites the bullet and plays through Zelda’s Adventure on Phillips CD-i, finally finishing all three infamous Zelda titles on the horrid console. This game is extremely different from The Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, but is that actually a good thing? Does the fact that it is a lot more similar to traditional Zelda games make it worth trying out? PBG is getting into…

When it comes to stories set in a medieval or pseudo-medieval setting, soon or later you’ll run into dragons. Either in the flesh or just referenced, there is something primordial, something alluring to large serpentine monsters. Many cultures who have had contact of some kind with scaled creatures from snakes to crocodiles have eventually developed a large and mighty variant of it: from the Chinese Dong Fang Qing Long (The Azure Dragon of the East), the Iranian Zahhak (known as…

Zelda games have been known (and have been confused) by the fact that Princess Zelda is not actually the main character.

In case the Zelda CD-i games needed to be  ostracized even further than they already have been, Zelda series Director Eiji Aonuma has explained why the often-mocked trilogy wasn’t mentioned in Hyrule Historia, the art book meant to provide a comprehensive history of all things Zelda.

This is a full blown speedrun of Zelda’s Adventure, the not so highly acclaimed Phillips CD-i Zelda title. Throughout the speedrun, MC Gamer provides audio commentary that is both interesting and informative as he progresses through the game. All in all his run of Zelda’s Adventure lasts just over an hour and…

 Today, Zelda Universe descended into one of the saddest times in Zelda fanhood as they continued their 25 Years in 25 Days series. With amazing titles like A Link to the Past and Link’s Awakening now behind them, Zelda fans were left with a sad period of time without seeing much from their beloved series. Nineteen ninety-four, at least for gamers outside of Japan, was the beginning of what would be the longest drought of Zelda games so far in…

A late Merry Christmas to all of you out there. To celebrate the holiday season here at Zelda Dungeon, we will be hosting a series of Live Video Streams right here at the website. The last time we advertised a full blown live stream was back in August of this year for the websites 9th birthday when I played Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon for the Phillips Cd-I. It was quite a successful stream with many fans getting their first…
