We are back and celebrating 400 episodes of the Zelda Cast a few weeks later, and we've brought some friends along too! This week, we're joined by Adrielle Munger, Jules Gia, Nicole Scott, and Rod Lloyd to play a classic forum game called Hurt & Heal! The premise is simple: 20 Zelda characters start off with zero points, and each turn, players need to take a point away from a character and give a point to a different character! Every 3 rounds, the character with the lowest point total is eliminated! This is an episode you might want to watch the video of just to keep track!
We're also taking a minute to acknowledge the horrible couple of weeks in the real world - stay strong and stay safe out there, friends. Thank you for all the support over these last 8 years!

We're back for another Hyrule Historia episode, where we focus on the lore of a specific topic and dive in to give context, our opinions, and our thoughts! This week we'll be diving into the strange and fantastical world of Termina from Majora's Mask! Just what is Termina? To answer such a question we'll be exploring fan theories, official Nintendo books, and sprinkling in our own thoughts to get to the bottom of this mystery! Come hang out as we talk all things Termina!
All this, PLUS Our Nintendo Switch 2025 Year in Reviews, Al's thoughts on the recent Animal Crossing: New Horizons update, and our thoughts on the recently revealed Ocarina of Time Lego set!

Come and enjoy a nice and breezy episode this week as the gang answer some Zelda Dungeon Daily Debates! On tap today: did Age of Imprisonment's roster limit the appeal of the game? Would we play a Zelda dating sim? Which game gets the most undeserved hate? Which game took the biggest swing? Where would we rank Age of Imprisonment in the series? Do the Hyrule Warriors games have too much content?
All this, PLUS some thoughts on Avatar: Fire and Ash, as well as Andy playing NEStroid next Sunday in the MetroidHQ Marathon! Come hang out!

Happy new year! We're kicking off 2026 in style by discussing what we want - and what we expect - from the Zelda series in 2026! A big emphasis on the 40th anniversary of course leads the way, as we want the return of the Zelda Symphony, Zelda All Stars collections, a long overdue localization of a fabled Zelda game, new life for Four Swords Adventures on NSO, Zelda movie casting and trailers, and of course the big one - the announcement of what's next in the form of a new 3D open world Zelda game.
All this, PLUS a little recap of our new years, Stranger Things and Heated Rivalry, and so much more!

This episode contains spoilers for Age of Imprisonment!!
Welcome back for another episode of The Zelda Cast! This week, Andy is off handling Metroid business now that Metroid Prime 4 has released. That leaves Al to play host, and she is joined by the podcast’s Social Media Manager, Jules!
We discuss Jules’ overall impression of Age of Imprisonment, as well as answer some thought provoking Daily Debates. Do the comparisons to Zelda game design make us want to play Metroid Prime 4? Should the stable system return in future Zelda games? Is Calamo a response to the “Korok Space Program”? Alasyn and Jules discuss these topics and more, so come hang out!

This episode contains end-game spoilers for Age of Imprisonment
This week on the show, we are answering YOUR questions about Age of Imprisonment, tackling topics like: do we want the Hyrule Warriors series to continue? How in the world can Zelda be a descendant of Rauru and Sonia? Who were our favorite new characters to play as? Were Ganondorf and his Grim-gang compelling villains? Does Nintendo truly understand why fans were upset with Age of Calamity? What were the biggest missed opportunities with the games story?
All this, PLUS we go over Fall Brawl, talk about the latest episode of Middle-Earth: The Podcast, and wish Andy farewell as he takes the next week or two off for Metroid Prime 4! Come hang out with us!

We've reached the end, folks! This week we're going over our thoughts on the ending of Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment! What did we think about the final chapters of the game? By the end, what did we think of each character's story arc? Is the post-game enjoyable? Do the connections between Age of Imprisonment and Tears of the Kingdom feel properly portrayed? And most important of all, what is our final review score??
All this, PLUS our thoughts on the first official images from the Zelda movie, and Zelda Dungeon's Charity Art raffle for No Kid Hungry! Come hang out with us!
For Next Week! We’ll be recording an Age of Imprisonment Q&A episode! Message us on Bluesky or submit your questions to our new The Zelda Cast category over on Zelda Dungeon’s Discord where we now have a dedicated Q&A question channel!
