The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is a 2017 open world action-adventure game published by Nintendo that follows the protaganist called Link as he explores the ruined kingdom of Hyrule and aims to defeat the evils within it.
Breath of the Wild is an amazing game with stellar visuals, creative game mechanics, an immersive soundtrack and a world filled to the brim with places to explore. The gameplay in Breath of the Wild consists of a combat system with different weapons, combos and parries, a climbing and stamina system for exploring and a runes system which gives various abilities that can be used for extraordinary things in almost any situation. The runes system can be so much fun to mess around and experiment with, the freedom that is given because of the runes is almost astonishing to actually experience, the constant thoughts of "Can I do that?" that more than not end up being proven possible even if difficult.
The kingdom of Hyrule is full of so many small nooks and crannys which let us think about what could have been in each area before the kingdom was devestated which makes exploring so much more entertaining, from the main city and castle to the small ruins of individual buildings and towns, every corner has something new to explore and add more to the slowly disappearing land we're presented with.
The freedom of the runes and traversability of the land with the climbing system coupled with the packed land of Hyrule makes for an immersive and almost real experience to what it would be like to be in a devestated kingdom with these abilities at your side and it ends up with an amazing game as a result.
