Mah boi, this description is what all true tropers strive for!!A series of games based on The Legend of Zelda (as Philips didn't have the rights to the franchise name, none of them actually use the name "Legend of Zelda" anywhere) made in the early 90s, as part of Philips Electronics' deal with Nintendo's SNES CD-ROM. The idea fell through, but Philips had been given the right to make several games based on Nintendo characters (not their respective franchises, just the characters), in this case from Mario and Zelda. So, along with Hotel Mario, they made three games for the Philips CD-i system: Link: The Faces of Evil, Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Zelda's Adventure. These are not regarded as canon by Nintendo, and are ignored by the timeline inside material such as Official Nintendo Power Zelda game lists, and Zelda's 25th anniversary artbook Hyrule Historia.note In fact, these games aren't mentioned at all in Hyrule Historia. Not even so much as a footnote.The most infamous by far are the two sidescrolling games reminiscent of Zelda II: The Adventure of Link, both released in 1993. In Faces of Evil, Link had to travel to the island of Koridai to liberate it from Ganon's forces; Wand of Gamelon featured Zelda traveling to Gamelon to save her father — King Harkinian — and Link. The games are quite infamous on the internet due to their animated cutscenes, often regarded as hammy, bizarre, and unintentionally hilarious; as a result, they are one of the sources most often used for humorous remix videos known as YouTube Poop.Less (in)famous is the top-down adventure game Zelda's Adventure, released in 1995 in Europe. In a reversal from the norm, Ganon has kidnapped Link and invaded the Kingdom of "Tolemac", plunging the Kingdom into an Age of Darkness. Princess Zelda sets out to save the young adventurer, and learns from the astronomer Gaspra that she must first collect the seven celestial signs before she can conquer the dark king and bring Tolemac into an Age of Lightness. Zelda's Adventure featured live action full-motion video cutscenes and pre-rendered sprites and backgrounds (primarily through a combination of live-action footage and surprisingly impressive model effects), and was generally more reminiscent of the very first Zelda game for the NES.Believe it or not, these games are of genuine historical importance not just to the games industry, but to the entire global political and economic sphere. Specifically, this marked the very first time an American company outsourced work to Russian labor, representing a thawing in US-Russia relations in the wake of the Cold War's end on Christmas Day of 1991. Developers Animation Magic hired a team of four Russian animators to work on the cutscenes for The Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, flying them into the States to work on the project. The end result was... distinctive, to say the least, but it was this of all things that became a significant touchstone in the post-Cold War era of global politics.27 years after the release of Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, amateur developer Dopply created Fan Remakes of both games, retaining all of the original assets while updating the gameplay to be less frustrating. Their downloads were only available for a limited time, but mirrors can be found elsewhere online. Tropes specific to the remakes should go here.In 2023, in collaboration with Limited Run Games, Dopply (under the professional alias Seedy Eye Softwarenote "CD-i", y'see) would announce that he had been working on a Spiritual Successor to Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, titled Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore. In addition to Dopply himself, the development team also includes Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon's background artist Rob Dunlavey, and Jeffrey Rath (Link) and Bonnie Jean Wilbur (Zelda) are featured as part of the game's voice cast. Arzette was released on February 14, 2024. |

A Winner Is You: The final cutscene in Faces of Evil is pretty short and sudden, and ends with Link exclaiming "I won!" before the credits roll. The one in Wand of Gamelon is only a bit more substantial. Likewise, Zelda's Adventure ends with Zelda and Link holding hands and Gaspra giving a short speach about peace returning to Tolemac. |

No Hero Discount: Morshu explicitly says that he can't give Link credit if he's short on rubies, though he's at least apologetic about it (and Ganon's minions all killing people or turning them into monsters means he probably needs all the rubies he can get). The Gamelon shopkeep, meanwhile, bluntly tells Zelda to wipe out a few more Goriyas if she can't afford something. |

Vocal Dissonance |
| | The Legend of Zelda CD-i Games (Video Game) / int_3a88a563 |
comment |
Vocal Dissonance: There's a lot of this going on, in all three games. Many enemies in Zelda's Adventure make a masculine grunt noise when they get hit. This includes things like birds, spiders and dragonflies. Odranoel, the wizard-looking astronomer from Faces of Evil, is clearly voiced by a woman. Lupay has a feminine voice despite looking like Omfak from Wand of Gamelon, whose voice was a lot more befitting of his Wolf Man appearance. Grimbo, the bearded blacksmith in Wand of Gamelon who gives Zelda the Power Glove, has a very high-pitched, almost witch-like voice, and is indeed voiced by a woman. Yokan, the fisherman, has the exact same voice. Though Zelda's Adventure is clearly set in a European-style fantasy world, many of the voice actors have very obvious, if not stereotypical, African-American accents. |

Voodoo Shark: Faces of Evil attempts to justify why Link doesn't have any items: Link is about to grab his stuff only for Gwonam to say: "There is no time! Your sword is enough!" This explanation only works if Gwonam is malicious or a total buffoon, as he is incorrect on both counts; you do need the items, and you do have enough time to claim new ones, but you have to do it the slow way thanks to his advice. |

Fan Remake: Both The Faces of Evil and The Wand of Gamelon received one in 2020.

Notably, it includes high-quality assets, gamepad support, and optional Anti-Frustration Features such as removing the limited number of continues. |

| | The Legend of Zelda CD-i Games (Video Game) / int_7b7965dd |
comment |
Boss in Mook Clothing: Gleeok in both Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon. It's found in only one area in each game, and is tougher than any of the bosses despite not getting an intro cutscene (though one NPC brings in up in each game) as well as being accompanied by its disconnected heads. They each drop an item that can be traded for an optional piece of equipment, with Link getting the canteen and Zelda getting the second sword upgrade. |

Breathless Non Sequitur: "My ship sails in the morning. I wonder what's for DINNER?"note If you listen closely, you can hear the sound of a dinner bell in the background of the scene, so it's not a complete non sequitur In-Universe. |

Depth Perplexion: A common complaint about the game is that the perspective of the game, platforms, and the enemies sometimes makes no sense. One notorious example of this is in Doradung Cave, where walking to the left at the start will cause Zelda to fall into a bottomless pit found on the root of a dead tree trunk. |

Skippable Boss: Lupay's whole area in Faces of Evil is optional since it only leads to the final lantern upgrade, which turns invisible enemies visible and isn't strictly necessary, making Lupay, the rematch with Harlequin, and the Reflecting Shield all optional. You can also skip Militron's return by just walking past him in the final dungeon. |

Canon Discontinuity: Nintendo put little quality control into the CD-I games, only making sure the illustrations in the manual and cover were on-model. Nintendo dumped all endorsement of Philips' games as soon as they hit shelves, and the attitude has only gotten stronger since then. The Nintendo Power guide to Ocarina of Time acknowledged all Zelda games except the CD-I games; Nintendo Power advertised Spirit Tracks as the first time Zelda joins the adventure instead of just waiting to be rescued, even though Zelda was the player character in two of the Philips games; the book Hyrule Historia didn't even mention them at all, not even in footnotes. Nintendo Power does acknowledge the existence of the games, but only to mock them, even before the cutscenes went memetic. |

And I Must Scream |
| | The Legend of Zelda CD-i Games (Video Game) / int_a8a04f6f |
comment |
And I Must Scream: Hamsha in Faces of Evil, who is frozen. When Link thaws her, she thanks him by giving him a drink of Water of Life — then promptly freezes again. And you can just keep rethawing (and refreezing) her whenever you want. Since the mountain was frozen by Ganon, she's presumably freed once he is sealed away. Goronu threatens to do this to Link: Ganon's fate in the end of Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon is being trapped in a book for who knows how long. |

Hard Levels, Easy Bosses |
| | The Legend of Zelda CD-i Games (Video Game) / int_b4696bc |
comment |
Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: In Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, whereas a good number of the mooks can prove quite challenging to defeat, most of the bosses die with one hit. Even Ganon himself — Link must throw the Book of Koridai at him; Zelda must use the titular Wand of Gamelon to summon binding chains... and then the book inexplicably reappears again to seal Ganon. The only bosses that put up a fight are the ones that need to be killed with standard attacks or weapons that don't kill in one hit like the Power Glove. |

Metaphorically True: In The Wand of Gamelon, when Zelda expresses concern to Impa over her Father going by himself to aid Duke Onkled and his kingdom, even with the Triforce of Courage, Impa declares that "The Triforce of Wisdom promises The King will safely return"... it just didn't say when or how he would safely return. |

It Makes Sense in Context: The introductory cutscene for Tykogi Tower. It's supposed to depict the inhabitants of Sakado imprisoned there, but since all of the cutscenes save for the intros and endings use the level artwork for their backgrounds, it instead shows out-of-context clips of Mayor Cravendish saying "This is illegal, you know." and Harbanno saying "My cakes will burn!". The Game Grumps were notably confused by these characters suddenly appearing when Impa was the only person around (they're actually just visions in the Triforce of Wisdom). |

Depending on the Artist: Several characters' sprites look different from the way the same characters look in the cut scenes. The difference is so great that you might wonder if the people who made the sprites even saw the cut scenes (or vice versa). Link and Zelda appear as they did in A Link to the Past on the cover art for Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, but they take on a variety of designs in the games proper. Sometimes Link is depicted with shorter brown hair like his appearance in Zelda II, and one cutscene unmistakably gives Zelda her outfit from the DiC cartoon. |

comment |
Throw the Book at Them: Link's method of defeating Ganon in Faces of Evil is to throw the Book of Koridai at him to seal him inside. |

Expy: Some characters in Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon have a clear parallel in the other game: Gwonam and Impa: Wise old folks who accompany the hero on their overseas journey, and assist them by showing visions of the bosses and citizens in distress. Militron and Iron Knuckle: Both are covered in heavy armor that can only be destroyed by the Power Glove. Lupay and Omfak: Both are wolf persons. |

Artistic License – Space: Odranoel the astronomer claims that the night is cold because stars are made of ice. In reality, stars are made up of gases, and even the coldest stars would be considered hot for humans. Justified since the games and the franchise as a whole are medieval fantasy games, and the proposal that stars were made of gases would not be made until 1925 by Cecilia Payne-Gaposchkin. |

Aside Glance: In the opening of Wand of Gamelon, after Zelda tells Link to go find the King, she looks at the player in a way that practically says: "I just know he's going to mess this up." |

Exact Words: In the opening cutscene of Wand of Gamelon, Impa says "The Triforce of Wisdom promises the King will safely return!" shortly before the King gets captured by Ganon. However, he does safely return at the end of the game (having been rescued by Zelda), and the prophecy never specified when he would safely return, or how. |

Never Say "Die": Averted with extreme prejudice, despite Nintendo enforcing it at the time. Characters will freely refer to the act of death or killing with reckless abandon! |

Canon Immigrant: The name Harkinian first appeared in the comics and cartoon. All versions of Zelda's father in those media seem based off of the King in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Probably unintentional, but Lamp Oil, which first appears as an item in Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon, becomes a real Zelda item in Twilight Princess. There was a Lantern in A Link to the Past, but it ran on Link's magic power. Yellow Rupees also first appeared in Zelda's Adventure before they appeared in Wind Waker eight years later. Spear Moblins and Snowballs make their debut in Faces of Evil, though the latter was only an item before becoming an official enemy obstacle in Majora's Mask seven years later. |
