>I was wondering if anybody else has tried this game out, but it's pretty much a faithful recreation of the original Legend of Zelda with it's own "Quest Creator" so you can make your own quests for the game... or just download quest packs from their website to play.<
><
>The game includes 5 quest packs (The original 1st & 2nd quests, a demo quest, the BS version of the 1st quest & the ZC remake of the the 1st quest) & ZQuest (the quest creator). All other quests must be downloaded separately. <

The game includes the classic quests, but you can download new quests for the game as well from the website.<
><
>The only complaint I have with the game is that you can't really play the game in windowed mode as your screensaver will always kick in every 5 minutes or so unless you play the game using your keyboard. If you play fullscreen, that probably clears up. <

I've completed the BS remake of Zelda & it seems to be easier than the original because some of the monsters that were a pain to kill were missing & replaced by easier-to-kill creatures.<
><
>I've picked up "Link's Birthday" "Hidden Duality" & "Dreams of Yesterday" quests as well to play. Thankfully, Zelda Classic has unlimited slots (as far as I can see) so you're not restricted to just 3, 6 or even 9 quests... but you're probaby restricted to your HD's space. <

I've downloaded every quest in the database. Haven't played one yet, though. "As long as there are dreamers who have the courage to follow their dreams, there will be heroes. And as long as there are people who pursue the unkown, there will be new stories to be told...and new adventures to be had." ~ Skies of Arcadia Legends <

Quest files have the .qst extension & unless the quest has extra files attached to it (like graphic packs or music), all you have to do is delete the quest file to remove it from the game availablity.<
><
>If you do play the custom quests, you have to register a name first, hit "A" twice to load up the custom quest. Once you've selected the quest, all you need to do is hit "start" to play it.<
><
>Note that "A" & "Start" are referring to the "in-game" buttons & be set to a specific key or controller button. <
