The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages can be a sequel or a beggining to The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. In this game Nayru, a sorceress, (you may know her from Zelda: The Ocarina of Time) has been kidnapped by an evil sorceress named Veran. Veran has traveled back in time and you must stop her. In order to go back in time, you need the Harp of Ages. You get some help from some animals, Dimitri the Dodongo, Moosh the winged polar bear, and Ricky the boxing kangaroo.

Gameboy Color's finest moment

While no one can argue that Oracle of Ages is the best game ever, it's not quite the most original game ever made. Many of the features, such as switching between past and present, were already available in A Link to the Past, by switching between the Light and Dark world. 90% of the items are rehashes of the SNES classic as well. Even the monsters are rehashed. The game itself has some great design, but loses something for lack of originality. On the plus side, the boss fights are admittedly pretty creative. I recommend Ages over it's counterpart, Seasons.

Highly addictive

I'm going to have to say that this game might be the best Zelda game for any system. Much more difficult than Link's Awakening and I'm guessing it's twice as big. Go for it if you like the Zelda series. My only complaint: the mini-games. I don't know what kinda jerk thought these would be fun, but they aren't. It's a pain having to play a game over and over until you beat it. It wouldn't be so bad if you only played for extra prizes (like rupees, seeds, etc), but you have to beat quite a few of these games just to proceed to the next dungeon. Just a warning - this zelda game requires sharp reflexes, and might frustrate inexperienced gamers.

This is my favorite Zelda game ever!

You must get this game! I have played Seasons and own Ages and Ages is unbeatable(as in better than Seasons). If you must get a Zelda game, have a GBC or GBA, get Ages. And while you're at it, get a strategy guide for when you need one.

This game is perfect for those long road trips. I highly recommend it to all gamers. Oh, yeah. ... The Magic Staff is for Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. The harp goes with Legend of Zelda: Oracle of time.

Zelda's back on GBC and better then ever!

Legend of Zelda Oracle of ages is an extremely good game. Anyone who likes the Legend of Zelda Links Awakening will fall instantly in love with it. With tons of new items like the harp of ages, and different seeds, and a bunch of old school items like rocs feather, and the power bracelet. With 8 dungons full of mind blowing puzzles, awesome new enemies and bosses shall keep you playing for a while. The only thing that was dissapionting for me with this game was that I beat the final boss, Veren, in one try and in Seasons it took me about 15 tries to beat the final boss. If you want more puzzles - get Ages. If you want more fighting - get Seasons.

the last in a dying race proves to be one of the best

Truly, handsdown the BEST Zelda game for the GBC...

I must say, that while I am not a big fan of Nintendo, I have ALWAYS been a sucker for the Legend of Zelda games. I must reccomend this game to any of you who are interested in puzzles and adventure. Embark on a journey as the Hyrulean hero Link as the triforce calls you to the mysterious country of Labrynna, and you must rescue Nayru the Oracle of Ages from a devastating fate, and on top of it all, you MUST SAVE TIME!
This game is a must, a true must for any people who like to embark on fun, exciting, puzzling adventures.

Excellent!

This game is a masterpiece of puzzles, but once or twice I was forced to consult a walkthrough, the bosses are difficult, the gameplay is excellent, and the two seperate ages are remarkable. Superior to Oracle of Seasons in my belief, but only because I enjoy the puzzles more than the action, Seasons has alot of action and Ages has alot of puzzles. Pick them both up, I haven't finished Seasons yet but I'm playing a linked game and can't wait to find out what happens in the end.
