Majora's Mask is the sequel to the first 3D Zelda game, Ocarina of Time, and uses the same engine, as well as many art resources. In addition, Princess Zelda does not play a major role she is only seen once in a flashback scene from Ocarina of Time.
Majora's Mask is one of the few Zelda games in which Ganon does not play any role whatsoever. Unique among The Legend of Zelda series, the game includes a time system that spans three days, and this cycle must be reset periodically to progress through the game. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask is the sixth main installment of The Legend of Zelda series & the fifth game in the series to be released on a Home Console, first released on the Nintendo 64 in 2000.
