The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild The Complete Official Guide: -Expanded Edition

Best book ever by my 9 year old son. This book helped him so much in progressing in the game. It is filled with useful information including strategies and even a full walk through. It is beautifully printed and contains detailed pictures of game scenes, characters and items. Plus text as well.

I bought this book back in 2020 while playing through BOTW and it is worth its weight in rupees. While I do enjoy the challenge of discovering and working through things on my own, I appreciate having a crutch. Listen, once upon a time I’d never think to reach for the book and scroll through its glossy, illustrative and detailed pages for a hint. However! I’m a grown man with nothing to prove and less and less time on my hands. While working full time + OT and managing a kiddo at home, it’s not even close to my intention to spend a shameful amount of time figuring something out. I particularly appreciated the recipe book and found it very helpful. Well a finished BOTW while my daughter was a wee little one and am thankful to have had the assistance of the book when needed. I’m now finally getting to TOTK as she’s nearing 3. I’ll be damned if I’m not buying Piggyback’s guidebook for that as well. I remember reading several reviews prior to purchase that the text was too small. I cannot deny that the text is smaller than I would call ideal but it’s absolutely legible to an average eye. Only other slight hiccup I can recall is being slightly disappointed when the book arrived with a few dings and a tear on the spine. Probably not the sellers fault at all and a shipping issue, it still reads just fine!! Not only is this book very detailed, contains MANY useful images (even if they are screenshots! Guess what? You’re going to see the same thing on your screen!! It’s as if this book is intended to help guide you through the game. Oh wait….) This book is ART and will always be a wonderful momento.

Zelda Breath of the Wild Fan here! I play this game a few hours nearly every day, and I was amazed at the content! The books is a 1000 pages of good info. Also, there's a map insert that is perhaps the best part of this, as I now use it to locate shrines. Once i find the shrine, I go to the guide when I get stuck on puzzle and it guides me.

I am so happy that I bought this book! A few days after starting BOTW for the first time, I saw this at a store and thought, "wow, that would be great!" but with the $40 price tag I left it on the shelf. Later that day I went on Amazon to look it up... lo and behold it was on sale for $22! I ordered it immediately, and have used it every day since. As a brand new BOTW player this guide has been invaluable. I've heard such wonderful things about this game for years and had a feeling I would love it too, and while that was true from the start, I still found myself very overwhelmed by just how vast this game is. I didn't really know where to start and had a hard time figuring things out on my own since the game offers little in terms of tutorials and whatnot. I was Googling every time I got stuck (which was a lot lol) and while the internet is a great resource, it began to feel like an even grander jigsaw puzzle trying to piece together info from dozens of different articles. Enter this book, and my gaming life has changed. It has just about everything I could need and more. The primer in the beginning was fabulous with all the tips about combat, environmental factors, etc, and all of the other chapters about specifics in the game are amazing. I seriously would have never figured out some of those shrines and side quests without this guide, or anything else for that matter lol. My gameplay has improved ten fold since buying this book and I'm enjoying BOTW more than I would without it, surely. I have the book open on my desk every single time I play now. And the MAP! The map is wonderful. I haven't unlocked the whole map in the game yet, so having a paper copy to refer to is really helpful. It's a little cumbersome to open/fold up every time, but honestly there's something about having a physical copy that's easier to look at than "interactive" maps online sometimes so I'm not bothered by it. As far as the physical aspects of the book go, I'm happy with the copy I got. I saw a lot of reviewers had issues with damage, and the top right corner of mine is a little bent from transit but otherwise the book is in really good shape. I agree that the text could be bigger too, but with the whole book at a whopping 500+ pages I understand why it's so small. I don't see any issues with the pictures either, they're good enough quality for me and show what I need. If there's anything I want to see a little more in depth I still turn to the internet, but overall the book is my first and usually last resource every time. And of course, the cover is beautiful too--it'll be a great display/collector's piece for whenever I'm finished with it. To sum up this long review, I couldn't be more pleased. This guide is worth every penny of the $22 I paid, and after cracking it open and seeing all it has to offer, it's worth the full $40 price tag too. I foresee myself enjoying BOTW for a long, long time to come with this book right by my side. And whenever I get to play TOTK, I'll be buying that guidebook too! I'm officially addicted to the Legend of Zelda franchise and this guidebook is partially to thank for it. :)

Words cannot describe how well done this guide is. this is on par with the guides from future press, and that is saying a lot. My favorite guidebook ever was the one for Bloodborne, but the BOTW guide by Piggyback, rivals that masterpiece as well. I cannot stress enough how impressed I was with this guide. Considering the hit or miss quality of most of the prima guides, it's refreshing to see one so comprehensive and exhuastive. The first thing that stands out to me is the index and table of contents. it's hard to find guide books nowadays with a good index or TOC, even books half the size of this struggle to include anything but the barest of content lists. I knew as soon as I opened the book and saw the table of contents that this was going to be a good book. it starts out with a primer and introduction to the basic systems and gameplay mechanics, then goes into the walkthrough for the main story line. the sidequests are organized into a seperate section, along with the shrines and other compendiums. While has maps with subsections of different areas, it also includes a poster that shows the locations of all treasures and Karok seeds. I'm so impressed with the organization of this guide. The strategies are effective and obviously tested. Instead of the vague methods to attack certain enemies listed in other guides, this one gives you step by step instructions about how to beat them. it goes through the enemy move list and how to counter them and offers suggestions as to what weapons and armor you will need to compete. This is definitely a guide that's setup for on demand help. If I'm looking for the resources needed to upgrade a certain armor set, or tips on a tricky part of a shrine, I can quickly find the information without having to read through half a section. This tome has all the information you need to succeed in the game. At over 500 pages, Piggybacks BOTW guide is a massive tome. But the game itself is just as big and it's so refreshing to see a guide that is worthy of the game. If you are looking for a guide book for Breath of the Wild, look no no further. An impressive, comprehensive and complete work, it is something every Breath of the Wild player needs to experience along their journey.

Makes me want to collect guides for other games now!

I have been a fan of Zelda since the original NES. My favorites are the N64 Majora's Mask and Ocarina of Time. I actually had a walk through book for both games when I was younger. I started playing BOTW without a walk through or help guide and would get stuck on quite a few things. I ended up constantly Googling help. I eventually decided to bite the bullet and get the book and WOW! My game play has really advanced. I have noticed some slight discrepancies as I am playing and will sometimes find easier shortcuts to solving some of the puzzles then what the book describes to do but because BOTW is so open I think that to have a book with ALL the information would be way too much. The book can be slightly difficult to navigate at times especially when you first start using it. Because the game isn't really linear in play you are constantly jumping around in the book. I tend to use bookmarks in sections I am constantly frequenting through the game play. It is also a very heavy book and not something you want sitting on your lap or in your way when playing. I keep mine propped up on some throw pillows next to me that I use as an armrest when playing and can flip through it as needed. I was a little disappointed when the book came as it had a dent in the side. I noticed this was a problem with earlier reviews of the book and was primarily due to shipping. I will say the book was packaged correctly with bubble pack but it still had the indentation and so I figure it's more how they store and pack it that is causing the damage. I however did not buy the book as a collectors item but something to be used and therefore it will experience wear and tear anyways so it isn't a huge deal to me. For those that are collectors or want something in pristine condition I would make sure to do a full inspection when you receive the book. Another thing I noted is some of the print is really small and difficult to read. I have perfect reading vision so I know it isn't me and I sometimes have to put my nose up to it to see things. I suppose larger font would mean more pages and a bigger book but it can really be a pain trying to read some things. My final issue with it is the large map that comes with the book. It is actually very helpful especially early on as you locate shrines etc... however it is so thin and because you have to keep opening and closing it and flipping it over it is already starting to rip slightly at some of the seams. Again I use my map and therefore expect some wear and tear but I do wish they had used a sturdier thicker paper for the map. I am very careful with it but because of the large awkward size it's only a matter of time before it is in pieces. If you are a gamer looking for some help this book is great and packed with tons of information. Because the game is so big there is no way I would have found or figured out half of it without the guide. If you are however someone looking to collect I would definitely be cautious about this purchase and give it a thorough inspection when you get it.

I bought this Expanded Edition, even though I already own the Deluxe Edition, because the Expanded Edition was released after the DLC dropped for BOTW, and is the only edition that covers that content. This was very helpful as I was taking on the Trial of the Sword in Master Mode. Also a gorgeous book for Zelda collectors!

And see what is inside..mycket bra hjälp medel specielt med kartan när du har tappat orienteringen eller bara sugen på att klara spelet 100 procentig t..yes!

The item is well protected for delivery. Just like most reviews, the wording in the whole guide is quite small. However, it can still be read easily because you will only read bit by bit while you are playing the game. The pictures are clear for you to understand what is to be done in order to get the items or where to move in order to reach somewhere. Highly recommend to every gamer that is looking for a complete guide book.

Produto maravilhoso, melhor que esperava, maior que imaginei, acompanha um pôster do mapa com detalhe bem grande dos dois lados, cada um com informações diferentes. Entrega e embalagem da Amazon deixa muito a desejar, os responsáveis pelas operações esquece do cenário brasileiro, rodovias, automóveis, recursos etc. só vem solto enrolado em um papelão, o livre veio amassado o canto inferior, isso quebra a experiência, esse é um item de coleção, deveriam ter uma atenção especial nesse tipo de entrega…. Todas minhas compras na Amazon tem esse problema, quando é um produto que tem sua embalagem original vem vem por já ter as proteções do fabricante, quando é um item avulso, como, jogo, livro, etc. sempre tenho problemas.

Love it

Kupiłem na prezent. Jest to wspaniałe wydanie - i myślę, że syn będzie bardzo zadowolony.
