The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (1991)

A sword swing is immediate, rooms have readable layouts and each new tool changes both a dungeon and the wider world. The SNES game in Nintendo's Classics library is the straightforward route to the original adventure. The Game Boy Advance conversion adds other changes and should not be mistaken for an identical release. A few clues and hidden routes are less explicit than modern quest markers; talk to people and revisit suspicious places rather than expecting every next step on a checklist.
