In Breath of The Wild, Link awakens to a world of chaos—Calamity Ganon has taken over the seat of Hyrule, and the Divine Beasts, great machines created to stop Ganon, have gone haywire, unable to be controlled. Link must return the Divine Beasts to the people of Hyrule’s control, recover memories from his past, recover his strength, and the master sword in order to finally stop Calamity Ganon and save Princess Zelda, who has been holding Ganon back while he slept safely for 100 years.

There's now a page showing our ranking of the games! 🎉 We've played so many now, and while editing, I thought the ranking discussion was kind of hard to follow. Our ranking up to our April 1st/Spirit Tracks episode is out.

[trifriendheroes]

In this game, a burgeoning train engineer must partner up with the ghost of a princess, traveling the land and restoring the spirit tracks that had kept the demon king Malladeus under control, until he was released by a suspicious double-hatted chancellor and an apprentice lokomo who desired more power.

Thank you for listening and make sure you join us May 1st for Skyward Sword! 💖

We've play so many games now that I thought the ranking discussion was kind of hard to follow, so I made this page of our lists:

It's March 1st and you know what that means! Our Phantom Hourglass episode is here! In this game, Link must partner up with a sailor named Linebeck to sail the seas, collecting pure metals to create a sword that will enable to defeat the evil Bellum, return the Ocean King’s power, and revive his friend Tetra, who has been turned to stone on the Ghost Ship. … BUT WAS IT ALL A DREAM?!?!?

Today's the day! It’s finally time to discuss The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. In this game, a ranch hand named Link is suddenly caught between worlds in a battle for power. He teams up with a guide from another world to free Hyrule from the Twilight, or maybe an even greater power that’s lurking within… 

Next up is Phantom Hourglass, coming March 1st. Thank you for listening and we’ll see you then! 💖

132 Days Until Tears of the Kingdom Release. Happy New Years Eve. Have a surprise picture because I just started playing Minish Cap and Link is so tiny. He's like ten pixels.

[trifriendheroes]

Happy new year, y’all! Today we’re discussing The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap. In this game, we shrink and shrink and shrink to become teeny tiny little picori-sized Link, sneak around, restore a magical blade to its former glory, and destroy the troublemaking tri-force-seeking demon Vaati. 

Join us February 1st for Twilight Princess! Thank you for listening and we’ll see you then.💖
