Pontinho rates this game: 4/5Four Swords Adventures isn’t a bad game at all, and is great when played with a few friends. One of its best features is, unlike the first Four Swords, that you can play the game by yourself when there aren’t any friends around. While it doesn’t have a mind-blowing plot or an epic locale, it’s a solid multiplayer Zelda.
Sabathia rates this game: 3/5Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure revolves around Link seeking a way to stop Vaati's forces and plans. Unlike previous Zelda games, up to 4 people can join up for co-op or competitive play. Beyond the multi-player aspect, the game is what you would expect from a Zelda title with an A-typical, but fun, RPG storyline on an Action Combat platform.
