Overview
The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap (Japanese: ゼルダの伝説ふしぎのぼうし Zeruda no Densetsu Fushigi no Bōshi) is the twelfth game in the series. It was released on Nintendo Game Boy Advance in Japan And Europe in 2004 and North America and Australia in 2005.

Critics praised the art style, which is reminiscent of The Wind Waker, as well as the music and the dungeon designs, saying they are some of the best in the series.
