The Minish Cap
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap is the twelfth main installment of The Legend of Zelda series. It was released for the Game Boy Advance in 2004.
Like most other titles in the series, The Minish Cap features the fully explorable land of Hyrule, although it can be viewed from the eyes of a human or the eyes of a Minish, a race of tiny people and an alternate form that Link can transform into. The game is the first in the story surrounding the Four Sword and features Vaati as the game’s main villain. However, unlike the multiplayer focus of the other games in the series, The Minish Cap retains the original form of exploration and dungeons as seen in A Link to the Past, Oracle of Seasons, and Oracle of Ages, as well as returning characters and game mechanics such as Malon and the Spin Attack. New features include fusing Kinstones and shrinking to the size of a Minish.

Did you know? The Minish Cap logo used in some pre-release game materials features the Master Sword, but the Master Sword does not appear in the game! This logo was even used in some commercials before it was changed.
