About

Have you always tried to play through Zelda II and finding out it was either excruciatingly difficulty, unbalanced, too tough or perhaps found that it just has so many quirks that doesn’t make the game enjoyable? This hack tries to address that by rebalancing the game, making some QoL changes and also some visual flare into the game, without compromising the original game’s design.
