It's often noted that Majora's Mask paved the way for deeper storytelling in the Zelda series following Link's Awakening. The game is also well known for its grim, disturbing atmosphere, as well as its thematic examination of issues such as despair and inevitability. These include helping a young couple reunite with each other and defending a farm from cow-stealing UFOs. Numerous people in Termina need help of some form or another, and by exploiting the 'Groundhog Day' Loop, Link can help all of them (albeit temporarily) to acquire Pieces of Heart, new Masks, and other rewards. Majora's Mask has only four dungeons (though they're much harder than any of the ones in Ocarina), so the gameplay places great emphasis upon various sidequests. Link chases after the trio, but falls down a rabbit hole of sorts and is transformed into a Deku Scrub by the mischievous Skull Kid. As he wanders through a mysterious forest on his trusty horse, Epona, he is mugged by a masked Skull Kid and his two Fairy Companions, who steal Epona and the Ocarina of Time before fleeing. The game was notable both for being the darkest entry in the series at the time, a title that it's still in the running for to this day, and for being one of two games that required the N64 Expansion Pack alongside Donkey Kong 64 (though technically Perfect Dark needed it as well in order to function properly).Īfter the end of Ocarina of Time, Link embarks on a personal quest to reunite with a lost friend. Fitting, as the devs only had that one year to make it, owing to a bet Eiji Aonuma made with series creator Shigeru Miyamoto. A followup to Ocarina of Time in terms of both story and gameplay, the development team re-used the engine and character models from Ocarina of Time, which reduced the development time of this game to one year. Majora's Mask is the sixth game in The Legend of Zelda series, released in 2000.
