Oh, how delightful. I could talk for hours about The Minish Cap. It is one of the few games I have fully completed (the figurines take forever, but it is still better than in TWW), and I would go so far as to say it is, in many ways, my favorite 2D Zelda. You do get a nice reward, too; access to the complete soundtrack (which I will get back to).
I really love the aesthetics, gameplay (the combat system is delightfully developed and a forebear of Twilight Princess great bosses) and puzzles (the Four Sword is used well in this regard) of this game, but it goes beyond that. What I truly appreciate about it is how it ties every facet of to the same core ideals, and I feel the atmosphere created is what makes it such an endearing experience.
Khuutra, I'm a little surprised you would hark on the soundtrack. In my opinion, it is easily one of the best on the system, and one of my personal favorites of the series. It does take a little while to get going - Mt. Crenel is where it really won me over; a truly exquisite composition that incorporates motifs from the Overworld and Dark World themes. The latter tracks are all in this vein, rather than straight up arrangements (with one or two brilliant exceptions). I also really appreciated the thematic unity and progression throughout the soundtrack. And, of course, the temple themes are some of the best in the series.
