Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon is one of the three The Legend of Zelda games made for the Philips CD-i. It was released in 1993, the same day as Link: The Faces of Evil. The sequel to Zelda: The Wand of Gamelon and Link: The Faces of Evil, Zelda's Adventure was released for the CD-i in 1994. A 3rd party company, Phillips, got hold of rights to Zelda and Mario games and created these games. This game is noted for its general negative reception, to the point that it is not officially considered part of the Zelda canon, and the use of its cutscenes in remix videos (commonly known as "YouTube Poop"s), although it is noted for having had better graphics then the previous side-scrolling Zelda game, The Adventure of Link.
This game and The Faces of Evil would later inspire the 2024 game Arzette: The Jewel of Faramore.
