The first game I got for my 3DS ended up being A Link Between Worlds! d=(´▽｀)=b (tbh,idek why I was looking round for DS games when I knew Zelda was always going to win because it's very special to me)
( Here's a picture to break up the review)
What makes the game play different to other Zelda handhelds:
✿The ability to merge with walls as a painting, this adds to a greater variety of dungeon puzzles to reach different platforms and so on.

✿ A loan system where by instead of getting an item in each dungeon you can rent any device at any time from Ravio.

THE GOOD✿ The story line was pleasantly surprising, I was worried that it would be a repetitive arc, or would have you in the same temple at least 10 times. (God dammit hourglass) but it had a few good twists in store. (ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
✿Challenging, but not so much that you would be at a walk-through 24/7.

THE BAD
✿ Save points.... are we in the 90's?..... (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻ It was incredibly disappointing to find out the game relied on save points so you had to do a dungeon in a whole sitting. This I feel is a bad move for a handheld as the whole point is that you can play on the move.

✿ When you die you have to give all your rented item's back to Ravio and re-buy them again when you reboot. I guess this is why they added the save point function otherwise you can semi-bypass giving up all your items by constantly saving.
✿ Not playable in 2D the dungeons heavily rely on 3D graphics which means if you have a 2DS your going to be at a loss onto what floor your on and what platforms are higher ect.

So I kinda focused more on the bad side but it's worth playing if you are a zelda fan or wanted to be introduced into the series. It took me around 16 hours to Finnish the main story line, but I feel it could last another 4 if you tried to find all the heart pieces and maimai's.
I would probably say it's also the best Zelda game for the DS so far despite its flaws.
