Horrible controls and linear gamplay result in a frustrating and disappointing gaming experience.
The main problem with the game is the control system. The novelty of swinging the Wii remote at enemies becomes tiresome very quickly. Plus during a frantic encounter, the type of attack you choose can appear random, despite pressing the correct combination of buttons. But, merely walking and exploring an environment is a pain - with over sensitive controls resulting in Link running off a platform when you merely intended to line him up to the edge. The fishing puzzle in the village is spoiled by the controls too: I spent hours trying to master the technique of catching fish.
The camera positioning behind link is awkward at times. Though there is a button to align it manually behind Link, it is still annoying when the camera pans round to the side, giving you an obscured view of your surroundings.
The gameplay is extremely linear to the point of boring. At the beginning of the game you basically have to travel from point A-B over and over again, and you are trapped in your current environment (indicated by the map on screen) until you complete a series of tasks. The puzzles are fairly simple and formulaic and do not provide a challenge.
After a few hours of this, I gave up and flogged the game on ebay.
