- T-hawk 15y agoNot exactly. A rectangular world that wraps around on both axes is indeed a torus, and appears in many video games, but not Zelda. Hyrule in each of the first four Zelda games in 2D is a flat rectangular world with impassable edges. (Perhaps a game cheat device could let you walk through a wall and wrap around the edges; it's arguable whether that would mean the world is toroidal.)
