A great adventure. It's this combination of unique elements that creates and action-RPG experience unlike any other, and it still holds up well today.

This is the only Zelda game I can think of that used experience points to level-up. Other than that, you're dealing with a typical (and engrossing) Legend of Zelda experience.

Any game that holds up more than a decade later is definitely one to watch, and Zelda II is one of these games.
