Phantom Hourglass. I didn't even finish it.
It felt like they were too interested in making a touchscreen based Zelda. I haven't even tried Spirit Tracks because of this game.

This. THIS.
Although Spirit Tracks is decent, it learned from the mistakes this game made. For one, a song for each dungeon rather than an 8 second loop, and not having to redo an entire dungeon just to uncover a part of it.(temple of the Ocean King Aaaaaaaaaa) Instead the Tower of Spirits lets you directly access the next area rather than force you to do the entire thing up until said point.

But yeah. Phantom Hourglass is bar none the worst Zelda game out there. Twilight Princess, in my opinion comes as a close second because of how much it tries to drag the story with copious amounts of cutscenes.(also those damn escort missions)

I really don't like Four Swords, it feels too much like an arcade game and not a Zelda title.
As far as Phantom Hourglass goes, sailing was monotnous (but it was in WW also), and the Temple of the Ocean King is a *******. That's about it.

Which Four Swords are you reffering to? The GBA Four Swords which was a side-game on the Lttp Port or Four Swords Adventures?

Either one was a party game at most. Meant to be played with friends.

I liked Four Swords for a few reasons 1.) It was free on the eShop 2.) It supports multiplayer 3.) It was fun!

GBA that was ported to eShop. I'm not saying it isn't fun as much as that it isn't very Zelda.
I'd probably enjoy it so much more if I had someone to play it with.

Four Swords Anniversary. It wasn't bad, but it was just not what I expect out of a Zelda game. All the reasons Fox posted are what I feel regarding FS 25th.

I'm gonna have to say Zelda II. Although it was a good game i didn't think it stacked up to the rest.

But you also have to remember that it was only the second game in the series, and while it was very different that the first game, it contributed many elements to the series.

For me, the worst is probably Phantom Hourglass. I agree with the reasons stated above, but that doesn't make it a bad game by any means, especially considering the series it's in.

I'm not sure what to say, I really liked Phantom Hourglass, I found it quite fun.
