I wish some of these characters in the game can make a comeback in future Zelda games. The king was my favorite character and I'm kinda bummed the people at Nintendo forgot all about him.

This game is the greatest achievement in gaming history. Some incredible gameplay, scrpitwriting, who could forget the iconic lines "you must die" , "i just wonder what ganon's up to" and of course, "Gee, it sure is boring around here.". Masterpiece. RDR2? Fallout New Vegas? nah, sit down boys, link: the faces of evil is taking over now

Best Zelda Game Ever
yolibarvueswag4 August 2020
Even better than Breath of the Wild, The Faces of Evil drives the already great series into a world full of fun, creative, hilarious, and colorful characters and gameplay. Despite the gameplay being pretty bad and stiff, the cutscenes make you question if ever, could we have seen a more breathtaking piece of art. I just wish we got Switch Ports, because I noticed not too many have played it on the CDI, and that's disappointing. Overall, Phillips made a astonishing and beautiful game that definitely had a few flaws, but nonetheless is a classic and unforgettable game.
Better Than TotK

I've played Breath of the Wild, and I've always thought it really blows. Link: The Faces of Evil is one of the greatest--god I don't even want to say Zelda games, but just games in general! The main character is perfect, the villain is perfect, the romance is perfect, the songs are perfect, and even the design of sprites, just look at them!
I could play this game a million times and never get tired of it. When I Played Tears of the Kingdom, this is the game I thought I was gonna get. Now, lets talk about the absolute best aspect of the film; the story.
Ganon and his minions have seized the Island of Koridai, and only Link can defeat him, so Link and Gwonam go off To Koridai to stop Ganon and The Faces of Evil.
Now, let's talk about the good stuff, becuase there's a lot. Let's talk about what everybody remembers: The villains.
The Faces of Evil are all fantastically awesome villains. They do all the horrible things that all the other Zelda villains do, but they actually make them complex. Thay all Try to convince themselves that they're all just soldiers for god and yet they're constantly doing horrible things, then they tries to justify it every single time, I love it that's a great character! But it doesn't just stop there. The stuff they do with Link is UNBELIEVABLE. This is probably one of the best characters of all time. I don't even know what else to say it's just so good. The dynamic between Link and Gwonam is also very likable. And though The CDI isn't technically that great, there's just so much passion and effort put into it that you just don't care.
It's best shown in one scene, in which a rather rotund merchant tells Link that his wares are Links, as long as he has the rupee's to buy them. And if link doesn't have the money, The merchant will tell Link that he can't give credit, and to come back when he's a little richer.
By god! Look at the animation on the Ganon! I don't know who animated him but give them all grammies! If I really had to nitpick anything, I mean really anything, its that in this game, I HATE Seth Mcfarlane, but like I said that's really scraping the bottom of the barrel in terms of nitpicking. To be honest I have no problems with this game at all. I think It's one of those perfect gamesthat you could play for days and never be bored of it. However there is a downside that isn't even in the game at all; It came out the same year as Sonic 3 & Knuckles, so everyone went to see that same rehash that wasn't even that good in the first place instead of this really funny really smart artistically put together film. Oh god do I hate Sonic 3 and Knuckles, it's right up there with Breath of the Wild with just no creativity, no spontaneity no passion no effort, it's just pure phoned in trash. God, I think it would scar most kids. But with Sonic 3 and knuckles I couldn't find much to like in it. If I had a kid and they wanted to play Sonic 3 and Knuckles, I would just make them play Link: The Faces of Evil again. Sonic 3 and Knuckles just sucks!
