Time for the next instalment of New Game+! This is a series where we occasionally revisit a topic from the podcast in more depth for an unedited mini-episode. These episodes run around 45 minutes to an hour. Sometimes our lives get in the way of our recording but we always want to make sure you've got something to enjoy each week! These aren't released on a regular schedule but on an as-needed basis.If there's a topic we've covered before that you'd really like to hear us expand upon, then let us know on the HLTB forums, Discord, or at hltbpodcast@gmail.com.In this episode of NG+, Paula, Ric, and Alex - in the second of a planned series, and following a previous NG+ episode on JRPGs - discuss the genre of Zelda-esque adventure games. As well as outlining what makes a game fit into the genre, each host brings five game recommendations to the table both for first-time players and genre veterans!Music – Ian EdwardGraphic design – M4thew00:00:00 - Intro00:00:34 – Defining the Genre00:02:43 - Intro Game00:10:23 - Foundational Game00:17:01 - Interesting Takes00:28:52 - Modern Interpretation00:40:03 - A Hidden Gem00:46:38 – An Unfair Question…00:48:49 – Paula hates youGames Mentioned:RicThe Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, Solatorobo: Red the Hunter, Sable, Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, Knightin’+AlexOceanhorn: Monster of the Uncharted Seas, The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, Chicory: A Colorful Tale, Cadence of Hyrule, TUNIC, MinitPaulaForest’s Secret + Mystery of the Frost, TUNIC, Okami, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, Kamiko, The Legend of Zelda: Triforce Heroes
