It is an interesting element to have in a Zelda game and one you will enjoy, even if you completely ignore shields. Gondo is quite the unique guy and will be the go to person for all things repair and upgrade. The game does make use of some of these traditional items while also introducing some interesting new items like the bellows which is capable of blowing an infinite amount of wind or a whip that can latch onto enemies or objects. For fans of the franchise, you will be expecting the Hookshot, boomerang, bow etc. One of the most enjoyable elements of your exploration of the world below is the number of new items and mechanics that it introduces.

This may seem like a rather small amount of diverse areas but once you spend some time with the game, you will see the huge amount of effort that was put into making these areas feel like they are full of secrets and hidden areas. All of these unique locations will bring back some classic elements of previous Zelda titles. Once you set off on your adventure you will get to visit a lush and vibrant jungle, a volcanic mountain and a vast desert. When comparing this to Windwaker, which had a very similar smattering of random islands, there is pretty much nothing worth seeing out in the clouds outside of the story related elements. There are items that you can activate in the ground below that will activate chests on these floating islands but the rewards are rarely worth singing about. If you spend some time doing this, you quickly find that there is nothing of interest out there. You will end up finding yourself in possession of a bird that you can use to fly to and from Skyloft and the surrounding “islands”. It takes some getting used to but the game is more enjoyable to play using standard controls. Due to the right thumbstick being assigned to giving you full control over Link’s arm, you do not have control over the camera. Playing with a standard controller is almost perfect but not quite. Since Skyward Sword was designed to be played using motion controls, it is worth giving it a go but they are less than ideal with the Joycons being considerably smaller than the Wii remote.
Your time in Skyloft will get you familiar with the mechanics of the game, which are not easy to get to grips with at first. It feels like a sunny version of something you would see in a Christmas movie. Unique and colourful buildings only further enhance the pallet of vibrancy and give Skyloft the feeling of paradise. It is a beautiful place with green grass filled with flowers covering the majority of the land. This is a floating town above the clouds. The more upbeat style definitely rings true in the remaster with an abundance of colour from the moment you gain control of Link. Skyward Sword brought a much lighter tone compared to Twilight Princess which was most definitely one of the darker games in the franchise, for better or worse. Skyward Sword was originally released on the Nintendo Wii as a follow up to Twilight Princess. Is it enough to bring a tear to the eye of those that loathe motion controls? Along with some higher resolution visuals Skyward Sword HD also allows players to ditch those motion controls and play using a standard controller. Skyward Sword is the final of the 3D Legend of Zelda games to be given an HD remaster.
