I just beat the game. Damn, sad it's over, I love this game. Final boss (Ganon) was the most difficult in the game, primarily because if you fall off the edge, you exit the battle area and have to start the fight over. Final dungeon, Ganon's Tower, was also the most fun dungeon. The developers made it a combination of several previous dungeons in terms of strategies, enemies and even bosses -- the player gets to fight the first and second bosses again as as normal monsters. Ice flooring was brought back fromm the ice Palace dungeon, and nearly invisible floors were a theme throughout the tower. This is the first game chronologicaly that has brought back previous bosses, unless the original Final Fantasy was released before this, and I think it was, so maybe it was the second game. regardless it is a fun and nostalgic idea to remind the player what he or she has been through to get to the final part of the game, and was very well done.
I really enjoy playing this game. Although nothing stands out as amazing, the game is simply "good" all around and at every moment (using a flute to call a goose to fly you to various locations is the coolest part). At the time, the dungeons are difficult. I remember as a 7 year old begging my sister to help me through the Ice Palace. I was stuck in a room and couldn't figure out what to...for a couple weeks (literally, I would spend at least an hour a day trying to figure it out). All I had to do was pull out a statues tounge and voilla! I was onto the next stage. Overall, a great game, and a must-play for any SNES gamer.

I played The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past back in 2nd grade, which would be 1994 (I was 7 years old). I am replaying the game now, a second year collge student age 19. The game is very fun and lets the player interact with the world in lots of ways. Link can pick up items to throw them at enemies, use lots of different items to kill enemies or open passageways/secrets. The levels are challenging enough to have fun, and there are lots of optional items the player can get. The gameplay is great, if you dont mind the graphics. Some bosses are hard. The story is somewhat bland, but still exciting to find out what is next. The breaking up of the game into two worlds is also very cool, and the player is able to teleport between them using a maghic mirror. I really enjoy playing this game -- a must play.
