I make a little list with all the Zelda-like games that I can find. I will upload them alphabetically

I'm searching for mostly top-view 2D Action RPGs. So:
- No 3D
- No strategic combat
- No menu combat
- Mostly Top-View but some

God damn it, that game was good.

I think it was originally going to be Capcom's response to Zelda but they ended up slapping the Willow brand at the last minute.

I wounder what would have happened if developed it's own Zelda-like franchise.

they're called zelda clones. Before anyone spergs out over the use of clone remember FPS games used to be doom clones. and the word clone is akin to like in this case rougelike = zelda clone. If you want to be upset by the word clone you are autistic as fuck for taking shit so literally.

Ninja Taro is a decent zelda clone on the gameboy you walk a little slow though.

Sword of Mana and LoZ are actually fine, as most Ports/Remakes are fair game here. So I would omit all non-retro but those two.

LoZ is quite redundant though, considering the nature of this thread, though SoM is different enough for people to not enjoy it.

If Landstalker counts, Dark Savior should count as well, at least it's worth mentioning. It's technically 3D but it plays like an isometric game, there's no multi direction roaming, it's snapped to the axis.
