Product Description
The epic story of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker continues as Link finds himself lost in a new adventure. Link and Tetra, the leader of a band of pirates, discover a ghost ship in dense fog. Link falls into the ocean when Tetra gets into trouble, and he wakes up alone on the shore of a mysterious island. Throughout the game, Link collects sand for his Phantom Hourglass, which allows him to explore deeper and deeper into a time-limited dungeon in his quest to find Tetra. Featuring intuitive touch-screen controls and innovative puzzles, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass offers new challenges for fans of the series and an easy-to-grasp introduction for gamers new to The Legend of Zelda. The robust single-player adventure will have Zelda veterans and newcomers alike engrossed by the story as they move through the game with the stylus. A special two-player battle mode lets players connect locally or via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. One player controls Link as he tries to gather as many Force Gems as possible, while the other player manages the enemies who pursue Link. The replayability of these winner-take-all matches is virtually endless.

 100% Recomended September 30, 2008
This game is so fun. When I first bought it, I wasn't sure how much fun it would be, until I started playing it. It has a gret storyline, controls are easy, and there is so much added stuff to keep you occupied. The puzzles are fun, too.
 Huge dissapointment for a Zelda title September 25, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Being a sequel to The Wind Waker, I expected alot more out of this game, sadly, it was a major flop. The story is as expected bad because your just chasing after to find out where Tetra is so you can turn her back to normal after being turned into stone. The sylus controls handle well however it would have been nice to have been able to use the d-pad and the reason why this game is bad is because they force you go through the same dungeon atleast 5 times, and you have to do the ENTIRE dungeon over again and more, also you have a time limit and have to complete it in usually less than 10 minutes which requires you to remember everything about it while avoiding invincible, yes, invincible enemies.
If you werent forced to backtrack to many times, then this would easily be one of the best DS titles out there, unfortunately, it isnt.
Best.....Game.....Ever.......... September 19, 2008
i love this game. I think it is one of the best games I own. It is a challenging but not impossible game. It incorporates the best attributes of the DS including the touch screen, microphone, and both screens. You get to draw on your maps and draw the path for your boomerang. I would recommend this game to anyone, especcialy people who like action, strategy, or puzzle games.
Big hit with my Grandson September 14, 2008
I don't know much about these games but I can tell you my 12 year old Grandson called me several times to tell me how he was doing with the game and how much he liked it.
Amazing September 13, 2008
Honestly me and my brother used to think the series would suck.... until we played this game. It's great.
CONS:
-there are no cons
PROS:
-Great Plot
-amazing graphics for the DS
-Takes advantage of the touch screen very well
Overall I give it a 95/100. It made me a fan of the series. =D
