The Legend of Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon

The Legend of Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon is an action-adventure video game for the Nintendo Switch and Wii U that is part of The Legend of Zelda franchise and a remake/re-imagining of the 1993 Philips CD-i game Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon. The Wand of Gamelon is remade in a completely different style to that of the original game. Instead of being side-scrolling and 2D, the game features a 3D open world with overhauled gameplay, placing it more similar to Breath of the Wild. As in the original, players control Zelda in the kingdom of Gamelon and must save Link from Ganon.
==Changes from Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon==

*The game features enemy types from other Zelda titles that do not appear in the original game, such as Lynels.
*Zelda's armor and clothing can be changed.
*Players can cook food to increase health or craft potions and elixrs via campfires.
*Shrines like those from Breath of the Wild return.
*Ganon receives a redesign based on his appearances in the original The Legend of Zelda and A Link to the Past.
