When I was perusing some old posts of mine, few stood out as sorely requiring a revisit than a review I wrote back in 2017 about Breath of the Wild. When the game first released, it was a momentous occasion for any Zelda fan. Hyrule was larger and grander than ever before, and we had…

40 Years of The Legend of Zelda: A Month of Nostalgia and Reminiscing
In February of 1986, the original Legend of Zelda was released in Japan on the Famicon (AKA the original Nintendo console). Produced by the legendary Shigeru Miyamoto himself, the game was inspired by his boyhood adventures around Kyoto. Going on to become one of the most highly praised video game franchises of all time, it’s…

It’s time for our wildcard week, folks! While the rest of the month was dedicated to relationships, I thought I’d focus more on our surroundings for this week’s post. Because who doesn’t enjoy decorating their home for Christmas and getting it nice and festive in time for all your guests to arrive? So today, I’m…
Listmas 2024: The Duck’s Revised Christmas Guest List
Our last Listmas category before our wildcard week revolves around those characters we’d most want to spend the holidays with, whether it be due to our inkling that they’d be good gift-givers or just a lot of fun to be around. I actually wrote a similar post back in 2022 if you want to check…
Link Will Be Playable in The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom

The Duck’s Favorite Event: When the World Played Breath of the Wild Together
Although we have a decade worth of posts to look back on, I have always had fond memories of the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and the posts that came with it. While I am unable to choose one single post, I suppose I can still justify my opinion that…
I Loved Zelda-ween!
You know, it’s still kind of insane to me that we’ve managed to last 10+ years as a blog. Most of our peers from that time have, for one reason or another, moved onto other things yet here we are somehow still chugging right along. We’re all going to talk about that a bit more…
Scariest Enemies: Humanoid Monstrosities
Video games are filled to the brim with weird and creepy monsters, but if I had to narrow it down, humanoid creatures are probably my least favorite foe. It could be the inherent creepiness of the uncanny valley, or it could just be that I don’t like facing off against something that either used to…
