Ocean's Heart (Steam)

Imagine a Zelda game that's basically Minish Cap in the setting of Wind Waker and you'll get Ocean's Heart, which means I loved it. There's not much in the way of large dungeons or innovative items but the game makes up for it with a superbly designed world, where exploration is extra fun, satisfying, and rewarding. It feels like every time you go down one path it leads to two more, and there are tons of secrets to find.

If I had one major complaint it's that the game is extremely easy, even compared to other Zelda games. It's a little better balanced at the start, but once you're exploring and finding health upgrades all the challenge disappears. There's an optional area you can visit to curse yourself so enemies deal extra damage, and I did this, and it was still easy but at least there was a threat of dying again. But if you don't really demand a challenge this is a fun, feel good 2D Zelda-like.
