Introduction

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons is an audiovisual game ("video game", "electronic game") published by Nintendo and developed by Nintendo in conjunction with Capcom. Although the game was originally released for use on the Nintendo Game Boy Color, it exhibits special features when used on a Nintendo Game Boy Advance. (Among these include additional rings and items) This game is the sister-product of The Legend Of Zelda: Oracle Of Ages, which was released at the same time. These two games had the ability to link with one another either through passwords or via cable. A person could complete one game, and then transfer his or her progress to the other game using one of these methods.

Timeline Placement

Although the chronological order of all Legend of Zelda games is controversial and not official, it is generally accepted that The Legend of Zelda: Oracle Of Seasons occurred after The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past and before The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening.

Storyline(spoiler-free)

The protagonist of the Legend Of Zelda series (with the notable exception of The Legend of Zelda: Zelda's Adventure), Link, is transported from his home world, Hyrule, to another world, Holodrum. Although the exact method of which this happened is uncertain, it is believed that the goddesses (Nayru, Din, and Farore), sent Link to Holodrum. When Link arrives here, he meets a women named Din (unrealted to the goddess Din), who exhibits exceptional prowess in dancing. Link learns that Din is the Oracle of Seasons (that is, she keeps the seasons of Holodrum in order). She is soon kidnapped by General Onox, who wished to cause chaos in Holodrum by adversly altering the seasons. It is Link's job to save Din and restore orderliness to Holodrum.
