The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (2007)
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass is a 2007 DS game and Metacritic's 2007 DS Game of the Year. It follows Link, Tetra and Tetra's band of pirates as they set sail in search of new lands and come across an abandoned ship in a patch of dense fog. When Tetra falls into danger, Link jumps overboard to save her but ends up washed ashore on an unknown island. With the help of a fairy he sets off to find his way back home. The stylus controls make it easier than ever to control Link - tap on the screen or sweep it around him to swing his sword, draw paths for boomerangs or make notes on maps stored in the top screen while manning cannons. Players can also compete with friends over local wireless connections by guiding Link through special dungeons or commanding forces that oppose him.
