For information on "real" games in the Zelda series, see: [[The Legend of Zelda series|Zelda series]].'' '''The Legend of Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon''' is a [[The Legend of Zelda series|Zelda game]] for the [[Philips CD-i]]. As a [[Nintendo]] franchise, the Legend of Zelda series would normally only appear on a Nintendo console, but due to contract obligations, and a fallout with the [[SNES CD]] project, [[Zelda]] and [[Mario]] both appeared on the system. The Wand of Gamelon was released on the same day as [[Link: The Faces of Evil]] in [[1993]]. ==Gameplay== The Wand of Gamelon featured side-scrolling levels similar to [[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]. ==Plot== Duke Onkled's island kingdom, Gamelon, is under attack by [[Ganon]]. [[Princess Zelda]]'s father, King Harkinian, sails to Gamelon in an effort to assist the struggling kingdom. He then dissapears without a trace. The often called on young lad cloked in green, [[Link]], is then sent to investigate. Alas, he to vanishes. It is now up to Zelda to find and rescue her father, Link, and save Gamelon from destruction. ==Criticism== The Wand of Gamelon is considered one of the worst games in the Zelda series, the others being the other two Zelda games for the Philips CD-i. [[FMV]]s and voice acting was used extensively to show off the capacity of CD-ROM based games, but both the FMV's and voice acting are considered, even by industry standards, horrible at best. The gameplay is also considered to be a travesty due to the poor quality of the CD-i's controller. {{Zelda stub}} {{Zelda series}} [[Category:Action role-playing video games]]
