One day, Link is asked by the mayor to run an errand in Castle Town, but things suddenly go wrong… The land becomes dark, and strange creatures appear from another world called the Twilight Realm, which turns most into ghosts.
Link, however, becomes a wolf.
After becoming a wolf, Link is aided by Midna, a resident of the Twilight Realm.
Midna helps Link find a way to turn human again along with other tasks.
The wolf cannot use a sword or other items.
Instead, as a wolf Link must use his senses to solve puzzles and get past obstacles.
The beast can also dig holes to find hearts and rupees and to get in places.
It can push blocks with its head to climb higher or reveal hidden passageways.
Additionally, it can attack enemies by biting or pouncing on them.
As a human, Link can move around quickly, aim his bow, swing his sword, and even fish.
Link also collects many different items, which allow him to perform varied attacks and reach places he couldn't before.
Link performs many attacks with his sword and can even learn other sword moves.
The game's art is similar to the naturalistic style of Ocarina of Time , rather than the cel-shaded look of The Wind Waker .
Chronologically, the game takes place between the two aforementioned titles, and quite a few locations from Ocarina of Time can be visited.
The main adventure takes place in several provinces with dungeons and temples.
With the help of Midna, you can easily travel around quickly later in the game.
About Nintendo GameCube
Nintendo's GameCube (2001) used a compact optical disc format and was the company's first console with online capability, though it never matched the PS2's commercial success. GameCube discs are comparatively durable, making complete-in-box collecting approachable, while a handful of Japan-only and limited-release titles (some tied to promotions) are the platform's genuine chase items.
Gamevaro tracks The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for Nintendo GameCube with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This GCN release dates back to 2006.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo GameCube titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
