The Wind Waker also has an open world tutorial, similar to Breath of the Wild and Ocarina of Time. This tutorial is like a nested version of the entire broader game, offering a contained open-world space that mirrors the full scope of exploration, mechanics, and progression found later on. Within this setup, players engage with the core playstyle right away, experiencing the game's open nature in miniature form without being funneled through rigid steps. It embeds the essence of the bigger adventure into the initial hours, making the transition to the main game feel continuous and natural.
