The Phillips CD-i Zelda games, Zelda: Wand of Gamelon and Link: Faces of Evil, are among the worst games ever released. In a surprisingly turn of events, though, an individual has decided to port them over on the PC, remake them, and fix most of their issues.

Features include widescreen mode, remastered mode for less frustrating play, subtitles, touched up sprites, unlockables, and more. They are not 1:1 remakes, with many differences, but I believe they capture the spirit.— Seth Fulkerson (@thedopster) November 27, 2020

According to their creator, these PC remakes feature widescreen support and a remastered mode for less frustrating play. They also come with subtitles, touched up sprites, unlockables, and more.
Now what’s really cool here is that these Zelda remakes are available for free on the PC. Yeap, you read that right. You can go ahead and download these two games for free.
Needless to say that we highly recommend downloading and playing them. Additionally, and since these remakes are complete, Nintendo won’t be able to take them down. So yeah, apparently PC gamers can now enjoy two of the worst Zelda games ever released, re-imagined on the PC.
Have fun!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

that was amazing
Contemplating if I should download them or not. They’re beyond horrible in terms of games, I can’t quite put into words just how awful they actually are. On the other hand, this is a remake that does fix some off the most glaring issues of the original releases.
I wonder if they’re actually good now?
Lol i don’t think they magically became good, but it’s still good news to have them secured and available, they’re hilarious
Remaking the games but improving them defeats the entire purpose of it. The games are known for being terrible, changing that is a really strange choice.
Agreed, I would have just made them like traditional overhead Zeldas instead. This remake is just polishing a turd.
