I thought I might be, but it just didn’t work for me. I sleepwalked through my current dungeon until I got stuck for more than twenty seconds, at which I promptly turned the game off.

I’m not quite sure what happened. I was enjoying this game a lot, but now I’m just finding everything about it annoying.

Got up to the Ice Temple last night. Got a couple of rooms in and realised I just didn’t want to play any more. Prior to that I’d just guessed my way through a multiple-choice “find the imposter” quest because I couldn’t be bothered to work it out.

I used to love the sailing, but last night it started to annoy me. Just watching the screen and idly tapping on any enemies that come near. And that Jolene woman is a real annoyance.

I just can’t face another puzzle-filled dungeon with an annoying boss at the end. The last boss I did took me far too many tries. If it hadn’t been a handheld game I’d probably not have bothered getting past it.

And I certainly don’t want to go back to that timed temple again. If I never see that place again it’ll be too soon. I hates it. It puts a downer on the whole game for me, knowing it’s there and that I’ll have to go back.

But, hopefully, if I leave it for a day or two then I’ll start to miss it and enjoy it when I pick it up again. Hopefully everything will seem less of a chore.

By “certain aspects”, I obviously mean “The Temple of the Ocean King.” It’s timed, it’s repetitive and it can be hideously annoying at times. I’ve just forced myself through it again and I’m not looking forward to going back.

Now, though, there’s a boss fight before I can reach Goron Island. Luckily, bosses so far have been something the game’s done right, so it shouldn’t be too painful. (Unless my touch screen messes up again – yesterday I seemed to spend more time in the calibration screen than in the game.)

Typing, however, does, so I can’t give this the write-up it deserves. Suffice to say, this is absolutely marvellous and everything about it seems to work perfectly. Glorious.
