Ship of Harkinian

Ship of Harkinian is a port of the source code of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the Nintendo 64 video game released in 1998. The software does not include any copyrighted material, so it is up to you to find and use a legal copy of the original game (the European version) to play it seamlessly on your Mac.

Verify your ROM before starting to play

Although at first it may seem difficult to set, the truth is that using Ship of Harkinian is very easy. The first thing you'll need to do is unzip the compressed file in any folder. Next, dump the ROM of your game into the same folder. Then, you must click on the app's executable. First you will have to confirm that you want to generate the OTR files, then select your ROM and extract it. This process will only take a few seconds. It is important to note that the app only supports ROMs in PAL format.

Smoother operation and better graphics

As soon as you start playing Ship of Harkinian, you will notice its improved visuals. Without abandoning either its original graphics or aesthetics, this version of the game offers a much higher resolution, with better textures and a much higher frame rate per second than the original 1998 release. From the options menu you can set the frame rate limit which, although by default is set at 60FPS, can go up to 250FPS. If you want, you can also apply image filters and other additional graphical enhancements.

Discover the magic of Randomizer

Ship of Harkinian offers many features, but one of the most interesting ones is undoubtedly the so-called Randomizer. It will allow you to get a totally different experience every time you start a new game. Its operation is very simple. It will randomize the appearance of different objects, zones and enemies. As a result, you can turn your favorite Zelda into a sort of roguelike that is capable of surprising you time and time again, no matter how many times you play.

Dozens of interesting features

Aside from the cool Randomizer and multiple graphical enhancements, Ship of Harkinian offers other interesting features. You can save your game at any time, thanks to more than half a dozen different save slots. You can also activate a cheat menu, which allows you to alter several key aspects of the game, making it much more accessible. What's more, you can play online with a friend (who will control the fairy) and even add mods. The online mode, of course, is fully cooperative.

One of the great classics, better than ever

Download Ship of Harkinian and enjoy what is considered by many players as one of the best video games in history, in a unique way. Playing it on its original console using its original cartridge has a lot of charm, but this version of the game offers a series of benefits and additional features, which make it the best current option. Whether for those who have never played it or those who have played it so much that they seek new challenges, this game is a real treat.
