The game uses a top-down perspective and an art style similar to ''A Link to the Past''. It takes advantage of the 3DS to add vertical motion as an important element of the gameplay. In contrast, it also allows Link to become a flat image on a wall to travel in a 2D space a la [[Wikipedia:Flatland|Flatland]]. The bracelet seen on Link's wrist in artwork for ''A Link Between Worlds'' has been confirmed to tie into the image-on-a-wall ability.{{Ref|[https://www.ign.com/articles/2013/09/11/three-things-we-learned-about-zelda-a-link-between-worlds Eiji Aonuma Interview}} The game also changes up the requirement to complete dungeons in specific order, removes helpful companions (instead it features a hint system a la ''Skyward Sword''), and introduces the ability to rent or purchase an item. | The game uses a top-down perspective and an art style similar to ''A Link to the Past''.

''A Link Between Worlds'' introduced a new mechanic where instead of earning each item by going through dungeons, [[Link]] has to either rent or buy each item from a "wandering merchant" named [[Ravio]]. Nearly every one of Ravio's items is available to Link from almost the beginning of the game, with the exclusion of the [[Sand Rod]], which is accessible after rescuing [[Osfala]] from the [[Thieves' Hideout]]. | ''A Link Between Worlds'' introduced a new mechanic where instead of earning each item by going through dungeons, [[Link (A Link Between Worlds)|Link]] has to either rent or buy each item from a "wandering merchant" named [[Ravio]].
