Post by: GamerNick on April 19, 2014, 09:21:47 AM
I am stumped...which usually doesn't happen.  I have this LOZ Oracle of Season and Ages Strategy guide...it's a mini one there is one on eBay.  But I have no clue where this originally came from.  Any info would be of great help...thanks

There's no ISBN or UPC? No UPC indicates it was a handout or insert, and the text on the front of the guide in white looks extremely familiar... can't place it though.

Nope no ISBN or UPC.  So I'm sure it was a handout...but where? ToysRus?  It's weird how it is referred to as a digest.

There's usually copyright and printing history info-- AKA the indicia-- on the page to the left of the table of contents. You might find some useful info there to go off of in further searches.

In any case, your find reminds me somewhat of the BradyGames' Oracle of Seasons / Ages Official Pocket Guide I found some time back. (the "two" on the far right in the pic below)

It also somehow reminds me of the Scholastic choose-your-own-path  books they put out, which featured strategies in the story.

Good luck in your info hunt...
