The Legend of Zelda Board Game From The 80s Is Surprisingly Boring

YouTube user Cinemassacre has published another very amusing episode in his series Board James, regarding video games turned into board games. Most of them are admitted failures, however there is one upside: the most ‘impressive’ The Legend of Zelda board game. The illustrations and layout may “look promising”, as Board James states in the video, but it is hilariously bad. Watch the video to find out why – you’ll have a chuckle for sure!

Perhaps with more imagination, these board games could compare to their video game originals. However, there is only so much one can do with such flawed designs. Perhaps we’d be better off with our Zelda themed Monopoly. If you could make a board game version of Zelda, what would it look like? More RPG, like Flying Frog Productions? Or perhaps DnD based, like Munchkin? Let us know in the comments below!
