Zelda: Cadence of Hyrule Nintendo Switch Review - Is It Worth It?

Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring The Legend of Zelda is too chuffing long a title, but the game is what's important, so is it any good?

I got this the minute it was released and have barely stopped playing it since. Absolutely fantastic game, great gameplay, great music, great graphics, great price... just all round great.

A thing you don't knew:
If gerudo is on the bottom left, then you can get outside the map.
There you will find I am error who sells free movement boots
Many don't know about that

"Reality is never that fair." I can bet the line originally said "Reality is often disappointing."

Please IGN, don't steal this review!

I died about 50 times until I... got the broadsword and played co-op, much easier. This game is truly incredible, because it captures those feelings of exploration and discovery so perfectly!

Well, HD rumble is utilized in an item in the Lost Woods area, so it's not completely absent from the game.

One of the best gaming experiences ever playing this game. The replayability too is what really gets me.

Every time I see a screenshot I think about giving it a chance. Once I see it in motion I realize this isn't my type of game, but it looks and sounds great.

Ok, but when is the $20 expansion set that includes a red shirt for link coming out?

I’m addicted too this game! I loved so much playing it and be in this world, that I often skipped using the harp for fast travel as I really like moving through the map, battling enemies and listening to the soundtrack. It’s a very good game and the start of a very expensive upcoming 3-4 months for my Switch. So much excellent games coming!

I played this game so much this weekend that I had to get a brace for my left hand. Don't recommend that part, but it goes to show you how addictive and amazing this game is. Love it! I keep wanting to play more but having to hold back!

I remember seeing this game in a direct or something before it released and thought 'huh, that looks cool, I might give it a go' then I really forgot about it. About a year ago I saw the demo on the eshop, played it and was immediately hooked. Its now one of my favourite games of all time

So... it is an easier, Zelda themed, Crypt of the Necrodancer?

The guy that Alex is referring to that is at the top of the leaderboard is basically a god at crypt of the necrodancer.

I think the addition of rumble would also be great for deaf players or hard-of-hearing players. Fixed Beat mode does provide an option for them, but the rumble would allow for an easier entry into the rhythm game style. But even as someone who can hear reasonably well, rumble would be awesome. But yeah, looks good, I'd love to pick it up if I had the money. XP

Unpopular opinion here: The D-Pad of the pro controller is really uncomfortable to use and the stick works just fine

[supersheshu]

the beat showing on screen is an important accessibility feature

This game...my god, do i love this game so much. (it aalso got me to actually get Crypt of the Necrodancer. Happy i did as well XD)
The best part is honestly the co-op though.

Playing as Link and Zelda or Cadence and Zelda or Link and Cadence or....any of the above and the little deku scrub. So fun <3

So playing this solo i found the beat difficult at first, i was swapping back and forth, trying to get used to it. Then we tried playing multiplayer without it...death count skyrocketed. LOL! So we were forced to play on the beat...and the more we did, the better i got. And the more and more i fell in love with this game.

This is an amazing and fun game, i am so pleased i picked this up, as well as Crypt of the Necrodancer. I cannot recommend these games enough.
