It's a great game, but it's also "baby's first Zelda" in terms of game mechanics. It's the first Zelda game my kid managed to play through on their own, and then when I had them try out LoZ, AoL, LttP, etc. they couldn't believe that you couldn't just bump into enemies without getting hurt by raising your shield.

It's far easier than even the Gameboy original, because back in the original you only had two buttons to assign items/equipment to, including the sword and shield, and the run boots weren't an inherent ability but rather were just another item to assign to one of your two buttons.

In the remake you can simultaneously use your sword, shield, jump feather, run boots, and I believe one more item to boot. It makes it literal child's play compared to other Zelda games.

That said... I wish they would remake more of them like that, because it is a great looking and fun to play game.
