Link, the character you play, goes on an adventure to find his long lost fairy friend, and finds himself mugged and kidnapped by the 'Skull Kid', under the evil influence of Majora's Mask. Link suffers a lot in this game: being deformed by the skull kid; witnessing the deaths of many people in the Land of Termina and having the constant worry of the moon crashing into Termina after 3 days are over.
On his quest to find his friend, he also helps many people out with their problems and emotional suffering. He helps all those out of the kindness of his heart, and does not expect a woman's hand in marriage or money as a reward. Main points in this game that some parents may find 'iffy': - The end of the world Apocalypse cutscene is quite distressing to watch, with the text box: 'And so, the angry moon fell from the sky, annihilating Termina and all its inhabitants Many involving strobe lighting, deaths, feelings of regrets from the characters and emotional scenarios.
However, all these cutscenes have a good message in the long run. Of course, in any Zelda game you are going to get violence, violence is not a bad thing in the context in which Link performs violence to help good people. Purple like 'blood' is shown spurting out of enemies after being hit by Link's equipment, flashing strobe like effects are also present when Link kills an enemy.
Link only kills fantasy like creatures when they attack him, so it is justified violence. However, this is done in a majestic, appropriate and non-sexual fashion. They are dressed like this because the fairy's represent nature and purity, they are not portrayed in a sexual manner. These fairies give link magical powers to help him in his quest, but only if Link helps them with their troubles. The game is quite challenging, but this makes the game very satisfying when completing a difficult dungeon.
Good points of the game: - Link uses his 'Ocarina of Time' to manipulate time: Slow down time, go forward in time, and go back in time. This game mechanic is very very fun, and the cutscenes which occur when manipulating time are very beautiful.
This encourages the use of logic, learning and initiative. This encourages to help people without expecting something in return. In conclusion, I do believe this game is by far one of the darkest Zelda games. However, the messages are strengthened by this darkness. I believe that this game should only be played by those above the age of 12, but I think Age 15 is the best to fully understand the story, messages and time travelling mechanics.
This title contains: Positive Messages. Positive role models. This review Helped me decide 1. Had useful details 2. Read my mind 1. Report this review. Teen, 13 years old Written by Awesome1 January 6, It is Different from usual Zelda games, but its super fun. Majora's Mask is possibly one of my most loved games, ever. It is still incredibly scary, from its soundtrack to its graphics, its quite dark. Since in OOT, his mind is seal away for Seven years, he doesn't actually adjust to his now mature body, and then he was sent back again!
Honestly, even when I played the game i felt kind of sad, but it sends such good messages about death, and life. This whole game setting has no clear evil or good, as other games have.
It shows sorts of realistic situations, in a high fantasy game. It shows the serious sides of Death, and the importance of inter-personal relationships, but overall, it really gave me quite a shock, as its not at ALL light hearted like the start as i go through. The game is easy enough to play after a while, but it took me a longer than other games. It really comes down to if the person playing the game can handle. I played it first when I was 9, though i didn't notice all the messages back then, I did see that it was a 'serious' ish game.
If you think you can handle it, you should very much give it a try. Had useful details. Teen, 16 years old Written by VioletRaven February 9, However, this is not one of those cases. Whereas most games Nintendo puts out are bright and uplifting experiences, this is a dark and deeply disturbing masterpiece that scares me even till today.
I remember being eight years old and playing this game for the first time, only to have terrible nightmares for weeks after. Between the scowling moon that constantly hangs over your head, the repeated three day cycle of dying over and over again, or even the horribly eerie looks on the faces of those you encounter; this game constantly delivers on an uncanny presence unmatched by even the greatest pieces horror.
It is much akin to the works of Lovecraft himself. In the ultimate battle with Link, Majora's Mask transformed into three separate forms. In a separate dimension called Termina, it tries to cause the end of the world by making the moon fall from the sky. And if you think the mask looks creepy, wait until you see its other forms! Majora's Incarnation from Majora's Mask. Majora's Wrath from Majora's Mask.
Majora's Wrath attacking from Majora's Mask. Link fighting against Majora's Wrath from Majora's Mask. Majora's Wrath being defeated from Majora's Mask. Majora's Mask 's boss room from Majora's Mask. Majora's Wrath attacking from Majora's Mask 3D. Concept art of Majora's Mask from Breath of the Wild. Icon of the Majora's Mask Mii Headgear. Majora's Mask 's dragon form in the manga. This meant that Majora's Mask could not be replaced if sold, which was noted in the description of the Item.
Wearing it makes it harder for certain enemies to spot you. It's a rather rare find. It is called Majora's Mask.
It is an accursed item from legend that is said to have been used by an ancient tribe in its hexing rituals. It is said that an evil and wicked power is bestowed upon the one who wears that mask. According to legend But now, that tribe from the legend has vanished, so no one really knows the true nature of the mask's power But I feel it. I went to great lengths to get that legendary mask. When I finally had it I could sense the doom of a dark omen brewing.
It was that unwelcome feeling that makes your hair stand on end. And now I am begging you! You must get that mask back quickly or something horrible will happen! I just hope he's not plotting another one of his no-good tricks It was too much for the Skull Kid to handle. This puppet's role has just ended I shall consume.
Consume everything. You're going in, aren't you? We can't do anything down here. Let's go! So the evil has left the mask after all It's nice to see such a strong response to this title and we haven't forgotten about Link's adventures in that world.
If sold, this rare find can't be replaced. The race spoken of in the legend was destroyed, so we do not know. But many developers are wondering if they can be part of that future while SB8 is in effect. Latest Jobs. Infinity Ward Woodland Hills, California. Disbelief Cambridge, Massachusetts.

For a little while, Koizumi was still trying to divide time between Majora and other work. And my game was canned! I was in shock. A challenge of telling a story based on interviews with Japanese game developers is that Japanese game developers are almost unfailingly polite.
So, if Aonuma needed Koizumi, he got him. Nobody was used to this new arrangement, especially after the close daily attention Miyamoto gave to Ocarina. He will eventually, right? Miyamoto upends our tea table and the direction that we all thought we were going in suddenly changes dramatically. Aonuma welcomes the input.
When you get to my age, the number of people pointing out your faults becomes quite limited.
