Zelda-like Gameplay Shines in Ocean’s Heart RPG

Hey all! I’m back with yet another game review for you to enjoy. It’s Ocean’s Heart!

Plot: The plot is fairly simple, you are a young woman named Tilia who desires to be the equivalent of a local guard on her home island. Stuff happens and she is forced to set out on a journey to find her father and her best friend. If that sounds similar to The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker, it’s because it is. Frankly, the plot is pretty standard, not anything to really note, it’s the standard hero’s journey.

[...]

Overall: A decent Zelda clone, it’s worth the price but it’s still not a true Zelda game. Some tricks from those games won’t carry over, but some will.

Score: 3.5/5
