The Zelda games on the Game Boy and Colour are unique within the Zelda series as a whole. Strange plots, enemies, music, mystery and even gameplay plague the three games. Hell, in Link's Awakening half the enemies are straight up from Super Mario Bros. And the oracle games come with novels and feature interconnected password systems, animal companions (who vary depending on your own actions) and areas unique in any other Zelda games (Subrosia). It's almost as if these 3 games exist in a void unto itself.
I recently watched a playthrough of the Unreal remake of Link's Awakening. Those plus the Oracle games are imo, some of my favourite Zelda games. Anyone know any games similar? I alreayd know of and love Lenna's Inception and Anodyne but I want more. I wrote an article about Link's Awakening and what I call Lozgbc games with a few more listed. Anyone know any other ones I could add?

Alone: The Horror Begins is allegedly (more on that later) a J2ME game developed by Centrescore, a company I can barely find any information about. This company is hard to track down. After scouring their old website I still can't figure out where they were even located. I guess somewhere in the U.S.A. but even then all the info I have is circumstantial. In their lifetime none of the games they made were that popular. They never quite made it out of obscurity. A cursory search indicates their most successful game being "Surviving High School '07", a coming of age group of minigames. Alone was their only foray into horror games before their disappearance. It appears that in 2006, Vivendi Games purchased Centrescore, eventually bringing all their IPs under that Vivendi hood. Under the Vivendi hood they were dissolved and all of their games forgotten. Makes you wonder why Vivendi even wasted the money acquiring them.
This game was apparently released in November 2005 to various digital storefronts. Some claim it unreleased but there's at least one link that proves it was public and for sale. It was, at some point available for sale on EasyEdge, a now discontinued mobile phone service.
During the search for this game a lot of inconsistencies came up.
This game is known as a J2ME game, a simple web search will back me up. But looking at that EasyEdge page one can see none of the phones listed were actually J2ME phones. They all ran BREW, a whole separate system. For comparison it's like saying a games was made for the SNES but it was really a Genesis game. BREW was on some whole other thing.
Here's some links:
https://web.archive.org/web/20071106212646/http://easyedge.uscc.com/easyedge/GameDetail.do?1697 - EasyEdge page, confirms it was released.
https://web.archive.org/web/20090420025521/http://www.centerscore.com/index.htm - Centerscore's old page. More proof the game was released.
I ended up writing a full article about the history, attempts at recovery and link dump of all the places the game was mentioned. It's a damn shame too. J2ME horror is a super underrated genre and this looks like it would be a fun game. You can read the article here:

If anyone has any idea of where I could find this, or leads, people to contact, etc. Do get in contact with me. I feel this game has to exist somewhere still. Hopefully one day someone finds and posts it. I'd love to play it.
