The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons (Japanese: ゼルダの伝説 ふしぎの木の実 大地の章 "Zeruda no Densetsu Fushigi no Ki no Mi Daichi no Shō", lit. "The Legend of Zelda: Nut of the Mysterious Tree: Chapter of Earth") is a Zelda game released for the Game Boy Color at the same time as its counterpartThe Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. The Oracle games may be played independently, but may also be linked by a password system to expand upon the story by connecting the incidents of the two games, and causing a different ending than the standalone game. Although both was originally released for use on the Nintendo Game Boy Color, they exhibit special features, such as additional items, when played on a Nintendo Game Boy Advance.
Story
Oracle of Seasons opens up the same as Oracle of Ages, with Link riding a trusty horse. Spying a castle on the horizon, he goes inside and is sent by the Triforce to help a land being ravaged by the ruthless General Onox. Link is teleported to the land of Holodrum and after a bit of exploring discovers a traveling troupe. After hanging around and dancing with the troupe's main attraction, Din, the sky becomes dark and General Onox strikes. In the ensuing chaos, Din gets kidnapped, taken to Onox's mountain fortress, and imprisoned inside of a crystal. As a result, the Temple of Seasons falls into the earth and the seasons of the land begin to become erratic.
Link embarks on a quest to save Din and restore order. The young hero learns from the Maku Tree that in order to penetrate to the center of Onox's fortress, he needs to collect eight Essences of Nature.
While in the process of visiting the dungeons, Link spies a shady character moving in the weeds. He sneaks by her and the girl disappears. After some exploration, he uncovers a strange looking portal. Stepping on it, he is teleported to the lava-hot underground land of Subrosia.
Looking to his left, he sees the missing Temple of Seasons. Taking the Rod of Seasons that he borrowed from the Temple itself, he learns seasons from the temple that become useful in his quest to retrieve the 8 Essences of Nature.
At the sixth Temple, Link runs into a gang of Stalfos pirates, who actually are the crew of a sunken ship's captain, who has relations with Queen Ambi, but has gone long dead, when accidentally sailing into Subrosia.
After finishing the last of the dungeons and destroying Onox and his evil dragon alter-ego, Din is released and the seasons become regular once again. But Link's Quest is not over yet. You can continue the adventure by getting the Labrynna Secret you receive at the end of the game, and putting it in a new file of Oracle of Ages, thusly starting a "Linked game."

- In both the chapter book and manga adaptations of the Oracle series games, Oracle of Seasons is the first game in the sequence.
