It first emerged in the video game franchise in the early 1990s, primarily as a means to add depth to the fictional world of Hyrule. Over the years, the Hylian language has evolved and developed several distinct writing systems. In the early games, it appeared as a set of unique symbols and pictographs rather than a fully-fledged alphabet. Players would encounter these mysterious characters while exploring the game world, adding an element of puzzle-solving to the gameplay. As the series advanced, the Hylian language became more refined, with Kana based writing systems and Latin based alphabets making appearances. These writing systems allowed for in-game texts, signs, and inscriptions to be deciphered by dedicated fans, further immersing them in the fantastical universe of Hyrule.}}
