The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
While not necessarily the greatest Zelda game ever developed, A Link to the Past is definitely the quintessential Zelda experience; it established many of the items, enemies, and tropes that appear in almost every Zelda game. Once again players control Link, the once and future hero of Hyrule, in his quest to rid the land of evil. Along the way, he crisscrosses a huge world map filled with oddball characters, ingenious dungeons (A Link to the Past has the most dungeons of any Zelda game), and more secrets than the life of an American teenager. If Ocarina of Time, The Wind Waker, and Twilight Princess achieved greatness, it's because they stood on the shoulders of this giant.
