Review – Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is a polished hack-and-slash that nails a satisfying blend of strategy and action, straying from its inspiration in many great ways.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity might be right up there with my favorite Zelda games, however it's hard to recommend when the frame rate is so choppy, and the lack of commitment for Nintendo to go hard at the prequel hardships. Still, if you want the best look into the lore of Hyrule, this is well worth your time.

Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is a breath of fresh air compared to other Warrior installments and is worth playing if you loved Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. The story, characters, and music are the best I’ve seen out of a Nintendo Warriors game in a long while. Even though the AI is severely lacking and multiplayer could use some improvements, it still is not enough to drag the game down from being the best Nintendo Warriors installment I’ve ever seen.
