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|[http://ca.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, 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''.

== Prologue == | |||
“There is a legend oft told in Hyrule Kingdom. It is the legend of the Triforce, once kept within Hyrule itself. Said to be a gift of the gods, the Triforce could grant a wish of all those who touched it. So of course, many wanted to get their hands on it. Wars were fought for the Triforce. The Royal Family summoned the Seven Sages, who sealed the Triforce in the Sacred Realm. But a thief of notorious repute broke into the Sacred Realm and claimed the Triforce. With its power, he became the Demon King Ganon who sought to dominate all Hyrule. | |||
But just as Ganon had the kingdom in his evil clutches..a legendary hero answered the call of Hyrule’s princess. And this hero, wielding the Master Sword, took up a quest to challenge Ganon’s might. He joined with the descendents of the Seven Sages to seal the Demon King in darkness. The Triforce was divided into three – its tempting power out of any one person’s reach. One part stayed with the Royal Family, while another slipped into Ganon’s possession. Legend says that the third part found its home in the heart of the hero eternal. And while legends come to us from the distant past, others have yet to be written..” | |||
