The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
Released in 2017, Botw is regarded as one of the best games, ever. The game revolutionized open-world gaming mechanics and is lauded for its beautiful visuals. Much of this is credited to its development and Nintendo’s unfaltering vision to reinvent the franchise. Much like its predecessor, The Legend of Zelda, which is considered the frontier of RPG games, Breath of the Wild is seen as an important entity in open-world gaming. The game was released after 2 delays, after which it received international acclaim. Botwmsold over 20 million copies by 2020, which is an amazing feat as the game has been released only on Wii U and Nintendo Switch. Botw is one of the top-selling video games ever. A sequel is reportedly in the pipeline right now, which is primarily be for Nintendo Switch.
Shrines in Botw
For those of you know who don’t know, Shrines are locations scattered all over the game, which are puzzles that can be solved throughout the game. Shrines are said to be ancient figures, and look like temples carved out of rocks. Shrines also have designs outside that glow.
It sometimes feels like there’s a shrine sleeping behind every hill, there’s so many of them. Archaeologists get pretty fired up hunting down each one of them, but I haven’t got time for mysteries…

The base game gives players access to 120 Shrines or Shrines of Trials, more of which can be accessed with DLCs
