This section is devoted to detailed outlines of the story of each game, and to presenting important continuity theories that tie all the games together. The Game Storylines try to tell the full storyline of each game in as much detail as possible. In general, these storylines are limited to the story within each game; they don't try to tell how the games connect.

The continuity theories try to demonstrate how all of these storylines connect together into one self-consistent Hyrulian history. I give no "justification" or "proof" of the continuity theories presented here. I simply present them in what I believe is their best and most representative form. If you are interested in the reasoning behind some of these theories, please visit the Articles section.
