Set in the mysteriousworld of Terminarather than the series’ usual Hyrulean haunts, 2000’sThe Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Maskwas a risky departure from the formula established by its predecessor,The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time, only two years prior. The second fully-3D entry in the iconic franchise,Majora’s Masktasked players with tracking down a series of magical masks to thwart the mischievous Skull Kid and save Termina from being crushed by a menacing moon. The title’s unique, time-hopping gameplay mechanic - which required players to repeatedly circle back through a 3-day time loop in order to progress through the story - gave the game a markedly distinct feel when compared to previousTheLegend of Zeldatitles. Now,The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Maskis widely regarded as one of the best entries in the long-running franchise.
