This week on Sunday Longplay, I'm playing a ROM hack for one of my favorite NES games that's been in the works for two and a half years and just saw its final release three days ago, combined with another sprite hack somebody else made for it. Welcome to Zelda II: The Adventure of Link Redux!

The original Zelda II was notorious for its high difficulty level. Zelda 2 Redux rebalances the game to make it more manageable for average gamers, makes some QoL changes, and adds some extra visual flair to the game. See the full list of changes at the hack's webpage above.

There are also optional supplemental patches for this hack including restoring some of the original game's mechanics to retain the original difficulty level with the new graphical style, a new experience system similar to icepenguin's "Journey of a Day" and "Shadow of Night" hacks (I still need to play Shadow of Night one of these days!), and a few others. In fact, one hacker who made a female Link sprite hack for the base Zelda II game recently updated it to make a female Link sprite hack for Zelda 2 Redux, so I'm combining that with the Redux hack for this Sunday Longplay!
