Most underrated Zelda game?

Even though the "it's all a dream" trope is so overused it worked well here. World building is great with confused villagers and aware dungeon bosses. You really question whether you actually want to awake the Wind Fish but keep moving forward.

Gameplay is great with the feather and some nice overworld and dungeon design. Music is great, too.

I might rank it over ALttP even though I love both.

It is, but if you remember the end of the game cutscene there is a very heavy implication that everything in the game actually happened.

It's one of the GOAT gameboy games for sure. I have it on my 3DS and probably beat it once a year or so. The DX version with the extra dungeon was well implemented also.

I remember as a kid thinking how amazing it was to have a gameboy game that was so large. Even as an adult I play it and that game truly does have a lot of content. I liked how each dungeon had a miniboss and main boss.

That's how I feel about the original Pokemon games. Just huge games for the time.

I love it. I might like it more than LTTP. It's funny how much the ability to jump added to the game.
