The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes is a 2015 action-adventure game developed by Nintendo EPD and Grezzo and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 3DS. The second original Nintendo 3DS entry in The Legend of Zelda series after A Link Between Worlds, this game is the third installment in the franchise to prominently feature a multiplayer campaign after Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures, albeit this time with only three players as opposed to four and a stronger emphasis on cooperation rather than competition.

Where The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes sits on the grid
The grid places every game in the catalogue on measured axes rather than on an opinion. This is where The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes lands on each map it has the data for, with the share of the catalogue it beats on each axis.
- Year
- 83ahead of 41% of the catalogue
- Reach
- 36ahead of 77% of the catalogue
Percentiles are against the games that carry a reading on that axis, not the whole catalogue: counting a game with no figure as a zero would flatter everything that has one. How the grid works.
What readers say about The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes
Reviews written by people who have played it. These are separate from the GamingPickz Score and are never averaged into it: that score comes from thousands of Steam reviews with a sample-size correction, and a handful of unverified ratings would distort it rather than improve it.
