The Legend of Zelda series is filled with colorful characters that leave an unforgettable impression on players.

Theme

Music is an important part of any Zelda title. It can make a game seem epic exciting, expansive, and captivating. However, Twilight Princess is criticized for its erratic and sporadic soundtrack that doesn't convey the emotional impact of certain moments. Contrarily, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask are enthralling soundtracks that explode at precisely the right moment to create a feeling of grandness and eerie.

Toru Minegishi and Asuka Ohta were the composers for the sound design and music in Twilight Princess, with Koji Kondo overseeing the series's composers for the first time since Wind Waker. The soundtrack for Twilight Princess is a bold departure from the usual approach to the series, with an approach that is minimalist in terms of the melody and arrangement. The majority of dungeon and field music begins with a single instrument creating a mystical and atmospheric atmosphere for the player. Midna's Lament, for example, uses a simple keyboard to create a feeling of sadness for the player.

The themes of dungeons are the most well-known examples of this trend towards minimalism, with numerous dungeons featuring a dreary and ominous atmosphere. This is evident in the Twilight Realm theme, which features a soundscape that could fit in the soundtrack of a David Lynch film. The ominous and unsettling nature of this track is accentuated by the absence of recognizable melodies and traditional arrangement, with dreary drones and peculiar patterns interspersed to create a bleak texture.

A more uplifting and joyous track is Link's hometown theme, "Faron Woods." This song employs a variety of gentle sounds and strings to create a calm and secure experience for the player. The song is an ode to the most famous scene in the franchise because it has a thematic riff that's similar to the famous melody that plays at Ocarina of Time's beginning.





Twilight Princess also has dynamic songs that change depending on the player's location, the activity they're doing and what's happening. For instance the Hyrule Castle Town theme has various versions for each part of the town with Central Square having a more boisterous and full version of the tune. These variations are a nice feature that adds an atmosphere of immersion and depth to the world of Hyrule.

Story

The story of Twilight Princess revolves around Link trying to stop Hyrule from being engulfed by the corrupted dimension known as the Twilight Realm. To accomplish this, Link takes on the form of a Hylian or as well as a Wolf and is aided by a woman called Midna.

Midna was the original ruler of Twili but she was supplanted and cursed by Zant to transform into her imp form. Link and Midna are told by the Ancient Sages that only defeating Ganondorf will be able to free them from their curse. The Sages reveal that the Mirror of Twilight is the source of the darkness in the Twilight Realm. Midna and Link travel to the Spirit's Spring, where they encounter hostile monsters that kidnap children. Utilizing Wolf Link's sharp sense of smell, they track the children's scent to a bridge, and then move into the Twilight Realm.

They enter the Forest Temple, battle Diababa and receive the first Fused Shadow. Faron informs them of their next destination, which is the Eldin Province in the west (Wii), or east (GCN).

At the Lakebed Temple in Lanayru, Midna transports Link to the fiery rock and uses her power to melt the ice that lies at the bottom of Lake Hylia. The spirit of Rutela, the recently deceased Zora Queen, Rutela, then appears and tells Link that he has to visit the Lakebed Temple in order to access a treasure of the Zora.

Twilight Princess allows you to ride Epona the horse from Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask. In contrast to the set name used in the two previous games, Link can now decide the name of the horse himself.

Midna and Link can recover the remaining Mirror Shards once they arrive in the Twilight Realm. The Sages inform Midna that she is the true ruler of the Twili. She was passed by the monarchy and had turned to the god of power. The Sages also tell them that the only way to defeat Ganondorf is to bring him to the light and break the alliance between the Twilight and Hyrule kingdoms.
