 The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords is a multi-link video game for up to four players on the Game Boy Advance platform.
The game does not have a single player mode, so it is required that one plays with at least one other player, who must also own their own copy of the game.
Though unlike the other Four Swords games, it was exclusively single-player, and the gameplay returned to a style similar to the Oracle games and Link's Awakening.

 The Legend Of Zelda: Four Swords Review - GameCube
Four Swords is the first Zelda game that gives you unlimited bombs, arrows, slingshot ammo, etc. The catch is that you can only use one of those items at a time.
Four Swords is pure 2D gameplay and the graphics are purely two-dimensional, but the effects are like a cartoon come to life.
Four Swords isn't a hard game, but having less than four clues made it difficult to complete.

 The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures - GameCube Review
Shadow Battle is a simple out-and-out death match for two to four players, in which players battle it out in a variety of arenas (both side scrolling and top-down) using the weapons and tools from the game.
The Hyrulean Adventure is a tale for one to four players (each using a GBA as a controller).
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures, in addition to having a mouthful of a title, most definitely falls into the third category, sitting right next to Mario vs. Donkey Kong and DK: King of Swing.

 The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords Plus Review
Because The Legend of Zelda: The Four Swords plus doubles as a party game due to the battle mode, Tingle's mini games and the Tetra's tracker mode.
The four player Shadow battle mode pits you against another Link, up to four Links in a battle to see who loses all of their hearts first.
Nintendo made sure that they didn't have to alter the levels or the design of the game to make up for single player gameplay.

 Review - The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures // Gamecube /// Eurogamer
Four Swords Adventures is not really a traditional Zelda game.
It may sound like a step backward to those Zelda fans for whom concepts like "levels" are blasphemy (and we sympathise; we worried about it too), but the result is more like a genuine step forwards for multiplayer gaming, wrought from some of the best single-player game design ever put out to pasture.
We're not going to rail on Four Swords for using this split-levels approach.

 CiN Weekly - Player 1: The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
I thoroughly enjoyed Four Swords Adventures and, like the earliest Zelda games, I was sucked into a time vortex each time I started a new level, playing for hours and hardly noticing until I looked up and checked the time.
Since all the game controls must be GBA friendly, there are only four to master: move, use/swim, grab/lift/roll and attack.
Likewise, the game action moves from the TV screen to the GBA when players submerge or enter a building.

 1UP: Zelda: Four Swords Mini-Games
Most people would consider the Hyrule Adventure portion of Four Swords to be the main game, with Shadow Battle and Navi Trackers (only in the Japanese version) serving as nice mini-games.
But as we discovered playing through the Japanese version of the game, there are eight additional bonus games you unlock as you play through Hyrule Adventure.
The point of each of these mini-games is to win more force points than your competitors, so at the end of each round, you meet up with Tingle who determines who the winner is. He also causes a shower of extra points to fall from the sky that you all compete over.

Randomly generated dungeons in Four Swords ensure that the game is different each time you play.
The more you play Four Swords, the more of Four Swords there is. Every time you play, the dungeons are different than the last time you plundered them.
What makes Four Swords so fun is the communication and cooperation it requires between the players.

 The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure for NGC video game review and cheats
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure is a fantastic game that uses the GBA link in a meaningful way, turning a pretty good single player game into an over the top joy to play multiplayer experience.
You can plan the entire game in single player mode, controlling the four Links in tandem, formation or one at a time, but to truly enjoy the game you need some friends with GBAs.

Not only is it a port of the beloved Link to the Past of SNES to the Game Boy Advance, but it also is the very first multiplayer Zelda game, in the form of Four Swords.

Four Swords is creative, challenging and very cute to boot -- worth a purchase, too, as the gameplay even for one player is dozens of hours, with a host of additional games and multiplayer options offering potentially dozens of additional gameplay hours as well.
The Legend of Zelda Four Swords Adventures is quite different from the past Zelda games.

 The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures - The Next Level GameCube Game Review
A lot of obstacles rely on the fact that four Links are playing, and even if one player is at the helm, there are always four of our favorite Hylian on screen.
There are also Force Gems scattered through the levels, and those can be nabbed to power up the Four Sword, buy goodies, and act as the official "points." Here's where the competitive aspect comes in play.
Which means a lot of puzzles can range from easy to infuriating, depending on who and how many people you play with.

The bad news is that you do not get to choose which color you play as, and even in single player mode you cannot choose which link leads the rest in the formation.
The major announcement made was that a multiplayer Zelda game was under development, which required the feature of connectivity to play.
For instances in which you play with less than four characters, the extra colored Links will simply follow closely behind the other character(s) who are in charge of them.
