Zelda II: The Adventure of Link is the "sequel" to the original Zelda on the 
Nintendo Entertainment System. The whole layout and gameplay aspects are 
totally different in this game. There is much more of an RPG-type feel to this 
game with the addition of magic, experience points/levels, and new sword 
techniques. Also, this game is side scrolling in most parts, but is still 
overhead when you're on the overworld. Although it isn't as well known or as 
great as the others in the series are, this is still a game worth playing 
sometime!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

*At the end of a fierce fight, Link overthrew Ganon, took back the Triforce 
and rescued Princess Zelda.
*However, is it all really finished?
*Many seasons have passed since then.

Hyrule was on the road to ruin. The power that the vile heart of Ganon had 
left behind was causing chaos and disorder in Hyrule. What's more, even after 
the fall of Ganon, some of his underlings remained, waiting for Ganon's 
return.

The key to Ganon's return was the blood of Link - the valiant lad that 
overthrew the King of Evil. Ganon would be revived by sacrificing Link and 
sprinkling his blood on the ashes of Ganon. Meanwhile, Link remained in the 
little kingdom of Hyrule and lent his hand to its restoration. But 
circumstances did not look very good.

One day a strange mark, exactly like the crest of the kingdom, appeared on the 
back of Link's hand as he approached his 16th birthday. The worried Link went 
to Impa, Princess Zelda's nursemaid who was shocked and frightened when she 
saw the birthmark. When she regained her composure, she took Link to the North 
Castle.

There was a door in the North Castle called "the door that does not open. 
"Only the descendants of the Impa family who served the king knew how to open 
the door. Impa took Link's left hand and pressed the back of it against the 
door. There was a sound of a lock falling open, the door slowly creaked open 
and there on an altar in the middle of the room lay a beautiful woman. "Here 
lies the Princess Zelda." Impa began to speak calmly. "Link, the time has come 
when I must tell you the legend of Zelda handed down in Hyrule. It is said 
that long ago, when Hyrule was one country, a great ruler maintained the peace 
in Hyrule using the Triforce. However, the king too was a child of man and he 
died. Then, the prince of the kingdom should have become king and inherited 
everything, but he could inherit the Triforce only in part. The Prince 
searched everywhere for the missing parts, but could not find them. Then, a 
magician close to the king brought him some unexpected news. Before he died, 
the king had said something about the Triforce to only the younger sister of 
the prince, Princess Zelda. The prince immediately questioned the princess, 
but she wouldn't tell him anything. After the prince, the magician threatened 
to put the princess into an eternal sleep if she did not talk, but even still, 
she said nothing."

"In his anger, the magician tried to cast a spell on the princess. The 
surprised prince tried to stop him, but the magician fought off the prince and 
went on chanting the spell. Then, when the spell was finally cast, Princess 
Zelda fell on that spot and entered a sleep from which she might never awake. 
At the same time, the magician also fell down and breathed his last."

"In his grief, the prince placed the princess in this room. He hoped that 
someday she would come back to life. So that this tragedy would never be 
forgotten, he ordered every female child born into the royal household should 
be given the name Zelda."

From the stand next to the altar where Princess Zelda lay in a deep sleep, 
Impa took the six crystals and a scroll with the same crest and handed them to 
Link. "For generations, my family has been handed down these things which have 
been set aside for a time when a great king will come. They are written in 
ancient script that no one can read now. But you who have the crest may be 
able to read it. It is said that the key to uniting the Triforce is hidden 
there. Now it is time for you to read it."

Link glanced at the scroll half in doubt, but what do you know? Although he 
never seen the letters before, he found that he could read them as if they 
were talking to him.

This was written on the Scroll.

"You who'll control the Triforce of the future. I shall hand down to you the 
secrets of the Triforce. There are three kinds of Triforce - Power, Wisdom, 
and Courage. When these three are brought together, the Triforce will share 
its maximum power. Of the three, I have left Power and Wisdom in the kingdom. 
But the Triforce of Courage I have hidden for a reason.

Not everybody can use the Triforce. It requires a strong character with no 
evil thoughts. But an inborn special quality is also necessary. Unfortunately, 
I have not found such a person during my lifetime."

"Therefore, I have decided to cast a spell on all of Hyrule. A crest will 
appear on a young man with that character, who has been brought up correctly, 
has gained many kinds of experiences and reached a certain age. But, what will 
happen if someone else uses the Triforce before then? If it is misused, it 
will produce many evils."

"The Triforce of Courage is hidden in the Great Palace in the Valley of Death 
on the largest island in Hyrule. However, to enter you must first fight the 
guardians and undo the 'binding force.' When you have defeated the guardians, 
which I made to prevent enemies from invading the six palaces in Hyrule, set a 
crystal in the forehead of the statue you find. When you have set crystals in 
all of the statues in the six palaces, the 'binding force' placed on the 
Valley of Death will be removed and you will be able to enter the great 
palace. There you must fight the last guardian. And you can obtain the 
Triforce only by defeating that guardian.

There's nothing to fear. You are the one to get the Triforce. You are the 
beacon of hope for Hyrule."

Impa implored Link, who raised his head slowly after reading the scroll. "The 
magic spell cast upon the Princess Zelda will sure to be broken if the 
Triforce is used.

Please, Link. Unite the Triforce and save the princess. And bring back peace 
to Hyrule."

Link nodded silently in approval, and left the room after taking a long glance 
at the altar.

Then with a magical sword in his left hand and a magical shield in his right, 
he set off alone on his long travels. At that time, Ganon's underlings were 
calling up new allies from the Underworld, and were beginning to work 
devilishly towards the revival of Ganon.

North Castle
------------

You start the game in front of the altar where Zelda is sleeping inside of the 
North Castle. There isn't anything really important to do here, so just head 
left or right out of the castle into the overworld.

From here, just head east along the path towards Rauru. Be sure to walk off 
the path into the grassy plains or the forest to fight some enemies and gain 
some experience. After you gain a Life Level, head into Rauru, which is almost 
directly east of the North Castle.

Rauru
-----

In Rauru, go left through town all the way to the 5th house, where you'll see 
a lady in blue come out of it. Talk to her and she'll let you come into the 
house; now follow her inside. Go right and into the basement, then go up to 
the sage to learn the Shield spell. Now, go back up and leave the house, and 
then go left out of Rauru.

From Rauru, head north and through the forest until you reach a cave. Enter 
it, but be careful because it's dark inside and you can't see anything. About 
halfway through the cave, you can probably make out something crawling towards 
you; it's a Lowder! Defeat it, then continue left and to the exit of the cave. 
Back in the overworld, go right, then south to the yellow path. Follow the 
path and you'll automatically enter a side-scrolling scene where you have to 
jump across many ledges while trying not to get hit by those bubbles that are 
floating upward. Get through this scene, and then continue down the path to a 
forest area and a grassy section in the middle. Go into the grassy area and 
into a side-scrolling scene; just go right and get the Heart Container on the 
ground, but watch out for the Goriya throwing boomerangs at you to the right! 
Defeat it and then leave the area, then go back north along the path, through 
the scene with the bubbles, then you'll end up back in the desert. Continue 
north and you'll see a palace; enter it and you'll be in Palace 1.

Palace 1
--------

From the start, go right and down the elevator to enter the palace itself. Go 
left while defeating the Mini-Horseheads that are coming your way, then enter 
the next room. In this room, defeat the Bots if they drop down to attack, then 
continue left. Defeat the Stalfos, then go left and defeat another Mini-
Horsehead and take the Key at the end. Now, go all the way left to the 
previous room and pass the elevator that you came down on. Defeat any Mini-
Horseheads and continue right to the next room. Here, go right and unlock the 
door, then continue right while defeating any Mini-Horseheads you encounter 
while also trying to avoid the Skull Ball floating around. Now, continue right 
to the next room. In this room, go all the way right and defeat the 2 Stalfos 
along the way. You'll also see an elevator going down; DON'T go on it just 
yet! Instead, go right to the next room. Here, defeat the Bots and the 
Stalfos, then continue to the next elevator; go up it to the upper floor. Go 
right, then up the "steps" while defeating any of the Mini-Horseheads along 
the way, then take the Key at the top and continue to the next room. Defeat 
some more Mini-Horseheads while heading right, and then defeat the creature 
that's throwing things at you then take the Key there. Now, backtrack left 
back to the previous room all the way to the elevator. Go back down it to the 
next floor, then get off and go left. Continue through this room to the next 
one, and then keep going until you reach the elevator going down. This time, 
go down it and head left while trying to avoid the many Skull Balls floating 
around. When you get to the following room, defeat the 2 Bots, then jump up 
the steps and run across the bridge that disintegrates as you cross it. Be 
sure to take the P Bag halfway across it to get 50 experience points, then 
drop down the steps at the other side and defeat any the Bots if you want to, 
then enter the next room.

In this room, go left and defeat the creature that throws things at you, then 
go left some more and defeat the orange Ironknuckle. Now, unlock the door and 
take the Candle in that room! Now, backtrack right a few rooms back to the 
elevator, and then go up it to the other floor. Now, go right to the next 
room, then continue right to the next elevator. Go right and take the Fairy if 
your health is low, then go down the elevator to the bottom floor. Defeat the 
Ironknuckle, then jump up the steps made by small blocks. Defeat the 2 Stalfos 
along the way, then continue to the next room. In this room, defeat that 
monster that throws stuff at you, and then unlock the door behind it with your 
Key. Now, continue right and defeat the Ironknuckle, then head to the next 
room. Here, go right and you'll enter a fight against the boss, Horsehead! 
Read the Bosses section of this guide to find out how to beat it. Take the Key 
after you beat it, then unlock the door to the right and head to the statue. 
After the crystal goes into the statue and you gain a level, go right and exit 
the now complete palace!

Back in the overworld, go down and left and enter the cave. Go through it and 
you'll be back in the forest area north of Rauru. Now, go left and onto the 
yellow path. Follow the path up and left until you reach a small patch of 
forest at the side of the path. Enter it and head right while avoiding or 
defeating the Aches, and then take the P Bag to get 50 experience points. Now, 
head right out of this area, then go up and you'll see a cave in the desert. 
Enter the cave and head left, defeating the Aches and Octoroks along the way. 
Then, defeat the Red Goriya at the end, then take the Trophy. Now, go back 
right and exit the cave. Go back down to the path and head left some more. Go 
down through the forest area all the way down until you see a cave; go in it. 
Go right and defeat the Lowders and Octoroks that occupy the cave, then take 
the Magic Container at the end. Now go back left and exit the cave and head 
back up to the path. Continue left along the path to the town of Ruto.

Ruto
----

In this town, go left and talk to the lady in red in front of the 1st house to 
recover all your life if you need to. Also, talk to the old lady by the 2nd 
house to recover your magic if you need to, then continue left to the 2nd 
scene. Walk past the 1st house of this scene and talk to the lady in red that 
comes out of it. She'll let you come inside because you brought the Trophy! 
Now, go right and down to the basement. There, learn the Jump spell from the 
sage, and then go back up and out of the house. Now, go left and exit the 
town.

After you're outside Ruto, head south along the path and you'll see a cave. 
Enter the cave and head right and defeat the Octoroks and Red Goriyas then 
continue right to the next room. In the next room, defeat the Lowders and the 
Red Goriyas, then go right to the next room. There, defeat the Aches and the 
Acheman that fly down from the ceiling, and then cast the Jump spell on 
yourself. Now, go right and jump onto the higher ledge, which you couldn't do 
otherwise. Then, just continue to the right to the cave's exit. Back outside, 
go south as far as you can go then head east across the swamplands. Keep going 
east to reach the path again. You'll see an area of forest above as well as 
below the path. There's a cabin hidden in the forest area north of the path 
where you can meet Bagu. Since it's hard to explain how to do this in words, 
please refer to my GIF for help on finding Bagu. After you find the cabin, go 
inside and talk to Bagu. Then, leave the cabin and get back to the path, and 
head left and down to the bridge. Go across the bridge while trying to avoid 
the Bago-Bagos and their fireballs. Keep going right until you reach the other 
side, then go down and right. You'll see a lone patch of forest; go into it. 
Head right while either defeating or avoiding the Megmats and take the P Bag 
to get 100 experience points! Now, head right out of this area, then go left 
and down and enter the water town of Saria.

Saria
-----

When you enter Saria, go all the way left to the 2nd scene and enter the first 
building in that scene. Check under the table by pressing B to find a Mirror 
underneath it. Leave the building and go back to the first scene. Talk to the 
lady dressed in blue that comes out of the house and she'll let you come 
inside. Go right and down to the basement, then talk to the sage to learn the 
Life spell. Now, go back and leave the house and go all the way left to the 
3rd scene of town. If you needed the health or magic, talk to the old lady in 
orange or the taller lady in red by the last couple houses in the second 
scene. In the 3rd scene, enter the building and talk to the guy there. Now, 
leave that building and a bridge will appear to the left. Walk across the 
bridge and continue left to exit the town.

Now, head south and enter the cave there to be brought to the Death Mountain 
"maze of caves". First, enter the cave to the right and once inside, head 
right while defeating the Bots and Red Moblins, then keep going to the cave's 
exit. In this area, go right and enter the next cave. Here, go right and 
defeat all the Octoroks and the Blue Goriya then continue right and exit the

enter the cave to the right. Here, cross the bridge while trying to avoid the 
annoying Bago-Bagos, and then go right to the exit. Now, go down and right and 
enter the next cave. In this cave, go right and defeat the Bots and the red 
Daira then use the Jump spell to jump to the high ledges above you. Take the 
red magic decanter to completely refill your magic, then continue right and

defeat the Blue Goriyas, the Aches, and the orange Daira. Then, continue left

go down and enter another cave. Here, go left and defeat some more Bots and 
orange Dairas, then continue left and exit this cave as well! Next, go left 
and up and you'll see a cave in the ground; go into it. Go right and defeat 
the red Dairas, an Acheman, and a Lowder then keep going to the next room. 
Here, go left and beat some more orange Dairas and Megmats, then when you 
reach the elevator, go down it. On this floor, go right and defeat the red 
Dairas and go to the next room. Here, jump from ledge to ledge all the way to 
the next room. In the next room, go right and defeat the orange, then red 
Dairas. Then, take the Hammer at the end! Now, go left a couple rooms back to 
the room with the elevator. Go back up the elevator, then head left. Keep 
going left through a couple rooms until you're back in the overworld.

You'll see a large stone to the left of you; go up to it and press A to 
destroy it with your Hammer. Now, walk into the rubble and you'll drop into a 
hidden cave. Take the Magic Container when you land, then go left to exit this 
cave. Now, go right and down into the desert area again and go all the way 
right to the water, then go up to the cave. Go into it and go right and jump 
from ledge to ledge while defeating numerous Octoroks along the way until you 
reach the end of the cave. Then, go ALL the way up along the path to another 
cave and enter it. You'll automatically be brought to a beach area with a 
bridge nearby. Go right across the 2 parts of the bridge while defeating the 
Black, then Blue Moblins. Then, in the 2nd part, avoid the bubble things that 
float upward from the bottom of the screen, as well as defeat the red Daira. 
Keep going right to the end, then follow the path right and up alongside the 
graveyard. Keep going up, then right until you reach the desert. Continue 
upward until you reach the path and go left on it. You'll see a large stone 
blocking the path; break it with your Hammer, then take the path going up. 
You'll see another cave to the right with a large stone in front of it; go up 
to it, destroy the stone, then enter the cave. Go right and defeat the 
Lowders, but avoid the Myus for now because you can't hurt them. Continue 
right to the next room, then go right and take the Heart Container at the end. 
Now, go all the way left out of the cave and go left to the path again. Now, 
head left and across the path and you'll see another cave that isn't being 
blocked by any obstructions. Enter that cave and go right while defeating the 
Megmats along the way, then continue to the next room. In this room, go right 
and take the P Bag with 200 experience points inside! Then, go all the way 
back to the left and exit the cave.

Now, go right to the path and walk all the way down to where it splits. There,

cave. Inside the cave, go right across the bridge while trying not to get hit 
by those annoying Bago-Bagos and defeating the Lowders that are on the ground. 
Keep going right to the next room, then defeat the orange and red Dairas in 
this room. Continue to the right and take the bottle of Medicine there. Then,

at the end; go into the palace.

Back in the overworld, head right and out of the swamp area, then continue 
right to the path. Take the path down to where it splits, then go right and

which is located outside the palace. Go right while avoiding Moa's fireballs, 
and take the P-Bag worth 100 experience points, then keep going and take the 
Key from the ledge. Now, go back left into the palace again and continue right 
until you can drop down to the lower path. Go left and down the elevator to 
the next floor down. When you get there, go right and unlock the door with a 
Key, then defeat some Bots. Continue right and defeat the Skull Heads, then go 
to the next room. Here, use your sword to break the wall of blocks, then jump 
over the pit and defeat the Bot on the platform. Jump to the next platform and 
beat that Bot. Jump onto the larger platform and defeat the red Ironknuckle. 
Keep on going right, jumping from platform to platform and defeating Bots 
until you reach the other block wall. Destroy it with your sword, then 
continue to the next room.

In this room, go right and beat the red Ironknuckle that is coming towards 
you, then continue right and use the Shield spell. Fight and defeat the even 
harder blue Ironknuckle, then keep going right and take the Raft at the dead 
end! Now, backtrack a couple rooms back to the room with the elevator that 
brought you to that floor. Now, go left of the elevator and beat the Skull 
Heads and Bots, then go on to the next room. There, beat the red Ironknuckle 
and unlock the door behind it with a Key, then continue left past the elevator 
going down. Beat a couple of Mini-Horseheads and yet another red Ironknuckle, 
then go to the following room. In the next room, jump up the block steps using 
help from the Jump spell and go left. Defeat the many Skull Heads along the 
way. When you see the Key below, use the down-thrust to cut through the blocks 
and claim it. Now, walk left and destroy the blocks with your sword while 
trying your best to withstand the Skull Heads that keep appearing to attack! 
When you get to the real wall, jump back onto the block structure and go all 
the way right and out of the room. Go right and beat the Mini-Horseheads and 
go to the elevator; ride it down to the bottom floor. On that floor, go right 
and unlock the door with a Key, then defeat the red Stalfos you'll see. Keep 
going right until you see the P-Bag on the high ledge. To get it, cast Jump on 
yourself, and then jump onto the lower ledge, then onto the higher one to 
claim the 100 experience points contained inside the P-Bag! Then, drop back 
down to the ground and continue right to the stone warrior. Defeat it like 
earlier in this palace, then go right to the following room. Here, go right 
and cut through the blocks in your way. Keep going directly right along the 
bottom path, cutting down blocks along the way and defeat the red Ironknuckle 
in your way. Keep going until you reach the P-Bag at the end.

Cut it open with the sword as always to get the 100 experience points inside. 
Now, go all the way left and cast Jump on yourself and jump onto the higher 
ledges all the way to the top. Go right and cut through the blocks in your 
way. Keep going until you can't anymore, then cut through the floor and go 
right. Defeat the red Ironknuckle and destroy the right wall, then continue to 
the next room. In the next room, go right into the boss's room, where you'll 
fight the Ironknuckle boss! Read the Bosses section for information on beating 
it. After you beat it, take the Key that falls from the ceiling, and then 
continue right and unlock the door with it. Now, go right to the statue and 
the crystal will implant itself into it like the previous palaces. After you 
gain a level from the statue, go right out of the now defeated palace!

Now that you're back outside of the palace, walk around to and enter the cave 
on the other side of the island. Here, go left and defeat the blue Goriya, 
then some Lowders and a Myu. Continue left to the next room of the cave; 
there, go left and drop down to the lower ledge. Be sure to use the Down 
Thrust technique on the way down so you don't fall on a Lowder below 
unprotected! Defeat the Lowders, then go left and out of the cave. Now, go 
west out of the graveyard to the path, and then go up it. Follow the path as 
it turns east, then walk onto the dock and you'll ride to East Hyrule for the 
second half of the game! Once you get there, walk off the dock and head south. 
You'll see a lone patch of forest there; walk into it to enter a side-
scrolling scene. Here, defeat the floating eyeball enemies by hitting them 
with your sword when their eyes are open. Then, go right and jump up the 
ledges to reach a P-Bag. Take it to get 200 experience points, then continue 
right out of the area. Next, head east until you see a town, then go into it, 
which is the town of Nabooru.

Nabooru
-------

In Nabooru, go left and talk to the old lady dressed in orange clothes, and 
then enter her house to recover magic. Then, continue left to the next scene. 
Go left past the first house to the fountain. Walk up to the statue in middle 
of the fountain and press B to get some water. Now, go back to the house you 
just passed and talk to the lady in red outside the house and she'll let you 
inside her house. Inside the house, go right and down the steps into the 
basement, then go up to the old sage and he'll teach you the Fire spell. Now, 
go back left and up the steps, then continue left out of the house. Then, 
continue left through town and talk to the second lady in a red dress standing 
outside her house, and enter her house to recover your health. Now, continue 
left to the next scene, but keep going until you're outside of town.

Now, go north along the path and into the cave there. In the cave, go right 
and defeat the 3 Achemen. Then, cast the Fire spell on yourself and use it to 
defeat the blue lizard enemy further to the right that shoots fireballs at 
you. It can't be hurt without the Fire spell's help, so this is the only way 
you can beat it (as well as several other enemies in the game). Then, continue 
right out of the cave. Go north, then head east all the way to the water. 
You'll see a bridge there, so walk on it to be brought to the Island Maze. 
Then, go right a couple steps, then go down and all the way to the right. 
Next, go straight up, then go left and up a couple steps. Finally, go right 
and you'll fall into a hidden cave. Go right and defeat the orange Lizardman, 
then continue right and take the Child sitting there in the corner. Now, go 
back left and up the steps, then out of the cave. Back in the maze, go left 
and down, then right and straight down to the corner. Next, go left all the 
way to the end, then go up and left across the bridge. Now that you're back on 
the mainland, head all the way west. You should eventually come across a 
desert area. When you get there, go down and around the mountain barrier, then 
go up and you'll enter a side-scrolling scene. There, go left and jump up the 
small ledges while defeating the blue Octoroks along the way. Keep going left 
to the end, then when you're in the overworld view again, go left and up into 
another side-view area. Here, go left while defeating the blue Octoroks and 
avoiding the bubbles that float upward from the bottom of the screen as well. 
After you're out of that area, go up and left into the town of Darunia.

Darunia
-------

When you enter Darunia, go left until you reach the tall lady dressed in red 
standing outside her house, and then go inside with her to recover your 
health. Then, go left some more and talk to the old lady dressed in orange and 
go inside her house to recover your magic. Next, continue left to the next 
scene. There, cast the Jump spell, and then jump on the roof of the 4th house 
you see. Jump from roof to roof all the way to the right, then stand on the 
chimney on the last house and press Down to go down it and enter the otherwise 
locked house. Inside, go right and down the steps into the basement, then go 
right and talk to the Knight to learn the Up Thrust sword technique! Now, go 
left and up the steps, then continue left out of the house. Now, continue left 
to the next scene of town. Go left and talk to the lady that comes out of the 
first house in that scene and she'll let you inside because you rescued the 
child. Inside the house, go right and down into the basement, then go up to 
the old sage to learn the Reflect spell! Then, go back left and up the stairs 
out of the basement, and go left out of the house. Now, go all the way left 
until you're out of town.

Back in the overworld, go right and down through the 2 side-scrolling scenes 
like you went through on the way to Darunia. Then, head all the way east to 
the water. Cross the bridge there to reach the Island Maze again. There, go 
right and down, then go right a few steps and go up the path there. Go up, and 
then right into a side-scrolling area. There, go right and use the Fire spell 
to defeat the enemies there. When you exit the scene, go right and up across a 
bridge, then go left into another side-scrolling scene. Go left, and once 
again, use the Fire spell and your sword to defeat the enemies in this area. 
Continue left out of the scene, then go left one step and head up and right 
along the path. Go up, then left and up, and then to the right and you'll 
enter yet another side-scrolling battle scene! There, go right and up the 
ledges and defeat the Bot in the beginning. Then, continue right and cast the 
Fire spell and use it to defeat the enemies in the area, then keep going right 
to the end of the scene. Then, go right some more and then go up and left. 
Next, go up some more, and then go left. Next, go down and left, then go 
straight up to the upper corner. Then, go right, and then go down at the end. 
Go right a few steps, then go down the path, then go right and down a bit 
more. Finally, go right and into Palace 4!

Palace 4
--------

From the start, go right while avoiding the Moa's fireballs above you, then go 
down the elevator to the floor below. On that floor, simply go right into the 
following room. There, go right and defeat the blue Stalfos, then use the Down 
Stab sword technique to claim the P-Bag worth 100 experience points. Continue 
right through this room and defeat the next blue Stalfos, then take the 
elevator at the end of the room down one floor. Once there, get off the 
elevator and go right, then defeat the red Stalfos. Now, jump up the 2 ledges, 
and then continue right to the next room. In this room, go right and cast the 
Jump spell on yourself, then run across the bridge that disintegrates as you 
step on it. When you reach the end, hold Right and jump to the ledge on the 
other side of the pit below. Keep on going right and defeat a Mini-Horsehead, 
then a Stone Warrior. After you beat the Stone Warrior, continue right into 
the following room. In this room, go right and jump onto the platform in the 
air, then go right and destroy the blocks with your sword. Next, jump over the 
small flame and continue right, then jump onto the next platform. Destroy the 
blocks, and then jump over the flame on this platform, but this time, watch 
out for the Stone Warrior on this platform! Defeat it if it doesn't fall into 
the lava first, and then jump over the lava pit and land on the next platform. 
On this platform, destroy the blocks and hop over the small flames, then jump 
onto the ledge at the end and take the Key. Now, go all the way left through 
this room to the room that you just came from. Continue going left until you 
reach the large pit. Walk off the edge and hold the Right button. When you 
fall to the floor below, hold Right to land on the platform. Now, go right and 
defeat another Mini-Horsehead while avoiding the annoying Skull Ball. Continue 
right and defeat the Stone Warrior, and then go right to the next room. In 
this room, go right and defeat the red AND blue Stalfos, then keep going right 
and you'll meet a blue Ironknuckle coming towards you! Defeat it and unlock 
the door with your Key, then go into the now open area and take the Boot.

Now, go back left through this room all the way back to the one with the large 
pit. Jump into the pit again and you'll land on a disintegrating bridge below. 
Quickly run to the right to avoid falling into the lava, then continue right 
to the next room. Here, jump onto the platform suspended above the lava and 
destroy the blocks with your sword, then jump over the small flame and defeat 
the Stone Warrior waiting there at the end of the platform. Next, jump to the 
next platform and destroy the blocks on it, then jump over the flame. Defeat 
the red Stalfos there, and then jump onto the following platform to the right. 
Destroy the 2 blocks and jump over the flame, then jump over the pit and claim 
the Key sitting there while trying to avoid the Skull Ball. Now, jump back 
across those platforms and go back to the room you came from. In that room, 
jump onto the bridge that disintegrates when you walk on it, then run left 
across it while trying your best to avoid those annoying blue head things that 
float around in a zigzag pattern towards you. Keep running across the bridge, 
and then go into the next room at the end. Here, go left and defeat a Bot, 
then cast the Reflect spell; you'll need it to defeat the Doomknockers 
(wizards) in this room. Go left and beat a wizard, then continue left and 
unlock the door with a Key. Next, continue left and pass the elevator for now, 
then defeat a couple more Bots and Doomknockers and continue left into the 
next room. In this room, jump up the block "steps" and go left on top. Keep 
going left while either avoiding or defeating the Skull Heads, then continue 
until you spot the Key in a small area below you. Use the Down Thrust sword 
technique to break through the blocks and take the Key. Now, to get out of 
this area easily, you're going to have to carve some steps out of the blocks. 
A pattern such as this one will help:

         -- --  --              --  --  --
        |  |  ||  |            |  ||  ||  |
         -- --  --  --          --  --  --
        |  |  ||  ||  |            |  ||  |

        |  |  ||  ||  | Key    |  ||  ||  |
        -----------------------------------

After you get out using my diagram above, go all the way right, then drop off 
the block structure and go into the next room. Go right until you reach the 
elevator, then ride it up to the top floor. Get off there and go left and 
defeat some Doomknockers using the Reflect spell to harm them. Continue left 
past the elevator and defeat some more Bots and Doomknockers, then unlock the 
door with your Key and continue into the next room. When you enter this room, 
you'll see a Key is located right above you. To get to it, first cast the Jump 
spell, then use the Up Stab technique to cut through the blocks. Then, jump 
through the hole you made and take the Key while avoiding getting hit by the 
Skull Ball. Now, drop back down that hole and head left only to reach yet 
another locked door. Unlock it with the Key you just got, then continue left 
past the second elevator. Go left and defeat a couple of Mini-Horseheads and a 
Stone Warrior; after you beat them, just go on ahead to the following room. In 
this room, jump onto the block structure with help from the Jump spell, then 
go left along the top of it. Defeat a Stone Warrior, then cut downward through 
the blocks with your sword to claim the P-Bag worth 200 experience points! 
Now, use my diagram that I made above to get out of that little "room" and 
continue left. You'll see a Key in a little block "prison", so cut through the 
blocks to get it. Make the steps with your sword, then go left and drop off 
the block structure and defeat the Stone Warrior there. After you beat it, 
jump back onto the block structure and go all the way to the right into the 
following room. In this room, defeat a couple of Mini-Horseheads as you move 
right. When you reach the elevator, ride it down to the next floor. There, go 
right and defeat a couple more Mini-Horseheads and continue into the next 
room. In this room, go right and jump onto the platform above the lava. Go 
right on that platform and destroy those blocks and jump over the flame (sound 
familiar?), then jump to the next platform. Be sure to avoid getting hit by 
those VERY annoying floating blue head things that float towards you while 
moving up and down. Keep jumping from platform to platform and destroying the 
blocks and hopping over the flames until you reach the wall. There, take the 
Key and get out of this room by going left jumping from platform to platform.

Keep going to the left and pass the elevator going up, and go into the next 
room. There, jump onto the bridge that disintegrates when walked on and run 
left across it while defeating the 2 Myus on it as well. Keep going left and 
unlock the door with a Key, then go down the elevator to the floor below. Once 
there, go right and unlock that door with your last Key and keep going right. 
Defeat a couple of blue colored Stalfos that jump down from the above 
platforms to attack you, then continue right a little bit more. You'll see a 
P-Bag sitting on a high platform; to reach it, cast the Jump spell on yourself 
and jump onto the lower platform, then to the higher one. Take the bag to get 
100 experience points. Now, drop off the ledge and keep going to the right 
into the next room. In this room, go right and defeat a couple of red 
Ironknuckles, then continue into the next room. There, go right and into the 
boss's room. The boss of this palace is Carock, so please read the Boss 
Strategies section of this guide for information on defeating Carock. After 
you beat it, take the Key that falls from the ceiling and go right. Unlock the 
door and stand in front of the statue and the crystal will go into it and 
you'll gain a level! After that, go right and exit the now defeated palace!

Now that you're outside yet another defeated palace, walk left onto the stream 
and follow it to the end. Get onto the path by the end and walk onto the 
bridge to leave the Island Maze. Then, go west and south into the cave. Go 
left through the cave and defeat the lizard enemy and 3 Achemen. When you exit 
the cave, continue south towards Nabooru. Instead of entering town, walk along 
the path straight to the right. Keep going straight across the water and 
you'll come across Palace 5, which you should obviously go inside of!

Palace 5
--------

From the start, go right and down the elevator to the floor below. Go right 
and defeat a couple of Ropes, then continue up and right to the next room. In 
this room, go right and avoid the Skull Balls until you reach the wall. Use 
the Fairy spell to fly up to the higher ledge, then continue flying right to 
the next room. Now, reenter the room you just came from and go left. Take the 
Key you missed, then go back right into the next room. Here, jump onto the 2 
platforms, then run right across the disintegrating bridge while avoiding the 
blue flying head enemies. Take the P-Bag halfway across to get 200 experience 
points, then continue right into the next room. In this room, go right and 
defeat a couple of red Ironknuckles. Then, unlock the door with your Key and 
continue right to the elevator. Ride it down to the next floor. On this floor, 
go left and defeat a couple of Fire Droppers. Then, continue left into the 
following room. Go left until you reach the area where the blocks fall from 
the ceiling. At that point, stand under the platform with the Key and wait 
until most of the blocks have fallen. Then, use your sword to cut a path up to 
the platform above you. Follow that path up and take the Key. Now, go left and 
cut through the blocks in your way and continue left into the next room. In 
this room, go left and defeat an orange Ironknuckle. Then, continue left and 
down and defeat 2 more orange Ironknuckles while avoiding the Moa flying 
overhead. Next, go left and down the elevator to the next floor. Here, go left 
and defeat a couple of Bots and those wizard enemies that drop fire on the 
ground (Fire Droppers), and then continue left into the following room. In 
this room, go left and cast the Jump spell on yourself. Then, jump onto the 
ledge above the elevator and take the P-Bag to get 200 experience points! Drop 
off the ledge and go down that elevator to the floor below. Go right and cast 
the Jump spell again, then jump to the ledge above you and defeat the red 
Ironknuckle guarding a Key. Take the Key and drop off the ledge, then go right 
into the next room.

In this room, go right while either avoiding or fighting the Fire Droppers and 
the Moa. Just continue all the way right to the next room. Go right and defeat 
a blue Ironknuckle, then continue right to the wall. Jump right into the wall, 
and then go right to the other side and to the next room. Here, go right and 
defeat some more Fire Droppers and continue right past the elevator into the 
next room. Here, defeat more Fire Droppers and make your way all the way 
right. Go up the elevator there to the floor above you. There, go left and 
defeat a few blue Stalfos, then continue left into the next room. In this 
room, simply take the Key in front of you, then backtrack through the previous 
room to the elevator and go down it. Now, go left through this room to the

it to the floor above you. Once there, go left and defeat any Fire Droppers 
you missed before, then continue into the next room. In this room, jump 
through the wall and go left all the way through it, then continue to the next 
room. Just go left through this room into the following room. Here, go left 
and pass the elevator for now and cut through the blocks with your sword. 
Defeat the enemy there, then cut down through the blocks with the Down Thrust 
technique and continue left. Jump up and use the Up Thrust technique to cut 
through the block with the P-Bag atop it. Take the bag to obtain 200 
experience points. Now, backtrack to the elevator and go up it. There, go left 
and unlock the door with your Key, then continue left to the next room. Keep 
going left to the elevator and go down to the floor below. Go left and defeat 
some Fire Droppers while avoiding the Skull Balls floating around. Then, use

with a Key. Go right some more and defeat a blue Ironknuckle. Next, jump up 
the platforms and defeat a red Ironknuckle. Now, go right into the next room. 
Here, just go right and you'll meet the boss, Gooma. Read the Bosses section

Key and unlock the door to the right, then walk in front of the statue. The 
crystal will be placed and you'll recover your health/magic and be able to 
gain a level. Then, go right and out of the palace!

Now that you're outside of the 5th palace again, go left all the way across 
the water to Nabooru. Head south and you'll find the black River Devil. Stand 
in front of it and play the Flute (press B) and it'll disappear. Now, follow 
the path around and you'll enter a hidden side-scrolling area. Go right while 
avoiding the fireballs the red Lizardmen throw towards you. Defeat the orange 
Lizardman if you want, otherwise continue right out of the area. Continue 
following the path around and you'll enter another hidden battle scene. Go 
right through it and avoid the fireball throwing Lizardmen again and defeat 
the blue lizard by using the Fire spell. Then, continue right out of the area. 
Continue to walk around the path and you'll enter another side-scrolling 
battle area. Go right and defeat the orange Lizardman while avoiding the 
fireballs being thrown at you from above. Just keep going right to the end and 
you'll be in the overworld again. Now, follow the path southeast around the 
cemetery and continue east to the bridge scene. There, cast the Fairy spell 
and fly right along the top of the screen to avoid damage. Then, continue 
right to the end of the area. Now, go east a little bit and go north along the 
right side of the small lake. Continue north and enter the cave there. Inside, 
go right and defeat the hopping spider enemies with the Fire spell and your 
sword and continue right into the next room. Go right and defeat an orange 
Lizardman, then keep going and defeat a red and black Lizardman. Then, 
continue right out of the cave. Now, go right 2 steps, down 3 steps, and then 
right 1. At that point, use the Hammer to reveal the Hidden Town of Kasuto, 
otherwise known as New Kasuto!

New Kasuto
----------

In New Kasuto, go right and talk to the old lady dressed in blue that comes 
out of the second house. She'll say you deserve her help and lets you inside. 
(Note: You MUST have obtained the 3 other Magic Containers prior to talking to 
this old lady, or else she won't let you inside her house!) There, go right 
into the basement, then continue right and take the Magic Container there! 
Now, go left and up out of the basement and exit the house. Now, go right and 
talk to the old lady in orange clothes, then enter her house to recover your 
magic. Then, go right into the next scene and talk to the tall lady dressed in 
red that comes out of the first house. Go in her house to recover your life. 
Now, keep going right and you'll come across a building with the door open. Go 
inside that building and go right. Go to the fireplace and press Up; you'll go 
into the hidden basement from there. Go up to the old wizard to learn the 
Spell spell. Now, go left out of the basement, and then leave the house. Now, 
go right to the last scene of town. There, cast the Spell spell to make a 
hidden building appear. Go inside and go right to the wall, then take the 
Magic Key! Now, leave this building and go left all the way out of town.

Now, go up and left into the cave you came through to get to this area. Go 
left all the way through the 2 rooms of the cave and defeat the Lizardmen and 
hopping spiders along the way. When you exit the cave, go south and east 
around the lake, then continue south to the desert area. You'll find 3 stones 
in a triangular pattern. Stand in the middle of the 3 and play the Flute to 
make Palace 6 appear nearby. Now, just go down into the next palace!

Palace 6
--------

From the entrance, go right to the elevator and go down it into the actual 
palace. Ride it down 2 floors (the first floor's optional) and go right. Once 
there, go right and unlock the door with the Magic Key and then cast the 
Reflect spell on yourself. Defeat a couple of Doomknockers and the Stone 
Warrior, and then keep going right into the next room. Here, defeat the blue 
Ironknuckle, and then cast the Jump spell on yourself. Now, continue right and 
jump over the 2 pits and keep going right. Unlock another door with the Magic 
Key, then defeat another blue Ironknuckle. Then, jump up the steps and go 
right into the next room. In this room, go right and defeat a couple of 
Doomknockers with the Reflect spell while avoiding the statue heads hanging on 
the walls above you that shoot fireballs at you. Then, continue right into the 
next room. Here, cast the Jump spell and jump up and right all the way to the 
top, and then keep going right into the following room. In this room, go right 
and cast the Jump spell again, then jump to the other ledge to the right and 
keep going right into the next room. In this room, you'll notice that there 
are Ironknuckle statues on pedestals in the background. Go right through this 
room while avoiding the Moa and Doomknockers and count the statues you pass. 
When you reach the 3rd one, cast the Jump spell. Walk a couple small steps to 
the right, then jump to the right to avoid a hidden pit below. Now, cut 
through the block wall with your sword, and then continue into the next room. 
Here, go right and you'll enter a battle against a blue Ironknuckle mounted on 
a horse (remember the 2nd Palace boss; this is it). Defeat it like you did 
back in Palace 2, then take the Key that falls and keep going right. Unlock 
the door and take the Cross that's in the small room. Now, go back to the 
previous room. Cut through the blocks, and then cast the Jump spell on 
yourself and go left to the first Ironknuckle statue you see. Jump at that 
point to the left, and continue left to the next room. Here, cast the Jump 
spell again and go left, then jump to the other ledge and continue left into 
the next room.

Here, go left and down the steps and avoid the fireballs those statue heads 
spit at you. Keep going left into the follow room. In this room, go left and 
down the steps and go left to the pit. Drop into it to drop down to the floor 
below. Don't land on the first floor you see; keep dropping and hold Right to 
land on the ledge on the second floor down. Now, go right and unlock the door 
with the Magic Key, then continue right and defeat a blue Ironknuckle. Then, 
go right into the next room. In this room, cut through the blocks with your 
sword and jump across 2 pits while avoiding the flying blue head things. Keep 
going right, jumping from platform to platform then cut through the blocks 
with your sword and go into the following room. Here, go right and defeat a 
red Ironknuckle and a couple of Doomknockers, then continue right into the 
next room. In this room, cast the Fairy spell on yourself and go right across 
the large lava pit while avoiding the Skull Balls and the small fireballs that 
fall from the ceiling. Keep going to the ledge on the other side and go into 
the next room. Defeat a blue Stalfos and avoid the Moa that flies overhead in 
the next room, and then go right to the elevator. Don't go down it; instead 
continue going right and unlock the door with the Magic Key, then go right 
into the next room. In this room, go right and you'll have to fight the 
mounted horseman like earlier in this palace. Defeat it and take the Key that 
appears then go right into the following room. Here, go right to the pit and 
drop down it to the next floor. As soon as you appear in the next floor, 
quickly cast the Fairy spell and fly to the ledge, then continue right and 
avoid the blue Stalfos and go into the next room. In this room, go right and 
jump onto the middle platform and the boss, Barba the dragon, will appear. 
Read the Bosses section of this guide for information on beating it. After you 
win, take the Key and go right, then unlock the door and walk in front of the 
statue. After you recover your life and magic, and gain a level, go right out 
of another defeated palace!

Back in the overworld, go left and walk onto the bridge. Simply cast the Fairy 
spell and fly along the top of the screen all the way to the end. When you're 
in the overhead view again, go left into the deserted town of Old Kasuto.

Old Kasuto
----------

When you enter the town, you'll find that it's deserted and blue Moas occupy 
the entire area. So, go left and enter the first house. Go right through the 
house into the basement, then go right down the steps and talk to the old 
wizard to learn the Thunder spell! You can only learn the spell if you have 
all the Magic Containers. After you get the spell, go left and up the steps, 
then continue out of the house. Now, since there isn't anything of interest 
here, just go right out of the town.

Now, go back east across the bridge scene like before. Use the Fairy spell to 
quickly get across, or just get across by jumping and attacking like you 
normally would. After you reach the other side go up and left to the other 
bridge. Get across it, then continue west to the graveyard. Step into the 
graveyard, and then quickly get back onto the path so if a monster attacked, 
you wouldn't fight it. After the shadows of monsters disappear from the map, 
quickly go south through it and you'll enter a side-scrolling scene. Go right 
through this scene while avoiding the blue Moa and the fireballs the red 
Lizardmen above you are throwing towards you. When you exit the scene, go down 
a couple steps, and then go all the way left while trying to avoid battles 
unless you want to fight. Keep going left and you'll enter another side-
scrolling scene. Get through this cave area by jumping over the pit and 
defeating the orange Lizardman while avoiding the blue Moas. Continue left and 
jump over a couple of pits, then defeat another orange Lizardman. After you 
beat it, cast the Jump spell and jump over the larger gap and exit the cave. 
Now, continue going north on the path. When it splits, go along the right path 
and continue north until you enter another cave scene. Get through it just 
like you did in the previous one (it's the same exact layout), then when 
you're outside again, keep going up and into the cave. Here, go left through 
the cave while defeating the red floating eyeball enemies and the blue Moas. 
Keep going left and defeat the blue Lizardman, then continue out of the cave. 
Next, go south along the path, then go left and up the other side and into a 
hidden cave scene. Jump over the lava pit and go left and defeat the red 
Lizardman. Continue left and beat some blue Moas and a red eyeball enemy, and 
then jump over a few pits. Next, continue left and defeat another red 
Lizardman, then jump over the larger pit using the Jump spell's help. Then, go 
left out of the cave and continue north into the real cave. Go right and 
defeat a blue Lizardman, then a red one, and continue right out of the cave. 
Once outside again, just go up into the Great Palace!

Great Palace
------------

When you enter the Great Palace, go right and the forcefield will disappear 
because you've beaten all the other palaces. Go right to the elevator and ride 
it down to the floor below. Go left and defeat the Mini-Thunderbird, then 
continue left into the next room. In this room, cast the Fairy spell and fly 
across the top of the room to the elevator, then ride it down to the next 
floor. Once there, go right into the following room. Here, simply go all the 
way right across the 2 bridges to the next room. In this room, go right and 
defeat a Mini-Thunderbird, then continue right to the elevator and ride it to 
the next floor. Go right and cut through the blocks with your sword, then go 
right through the room while either avoiding or defeating the orange head 
things floating around. Cut through some more blocks at the other side of the 
room, and then go right into the following room. In this room, go right and 
watch out for the Mini-Thunderbird enemy that jumps towards you with sword in 
hand. Get past it quickly or defeat it, then continue going right. Go right 
and jump up a couple of steps and defeat a Bot. Then, cut through the blocks 
using the Down Stab technique and go right and down the elevator 3 floors. 
There, go right and defeat the Mini-Thunderbird and go right into the next 
room. In this room, go right and defeat the red Rope snake enemy and some of 
those floating orange head things, then continue right all the way to the 
elevator. Go down it to the next floor and go right. Cut through the blocks 
with your sword and defeat a couple of Bots, then go right and cut through 
some more blocks. Defeat another Bot and go right into the next room. Here, go 
right across the disintegrating bridge and defeat the red Rope, and then jump 
onto the platform at the end of the bridge. Then, continue right to the 
elevator leading to the next floor. Here, go right and try and avoid the giant 
Skull Ball. Defeat a blue Mini-Thunderbird, and then continue right to the 
next room. Here, go right and defeat another blue Mini-Thunderbird, then 
continue right and up the steps. Avoid the giant Skull Ball if possible, then 
cut through the blocks using the Down Stab technique to cut down through them. 
Next, just go right and down the elevator.

Go down through 3 floors to the very bottom, then go left. Defeat a Bot and a 
Mini-Thunderbird, and then continue left into the next room. In the next room, 
go left and you'll see a bunch of blocks on the floor. Defeat some floating 
orange head enemies that come near, then cut down through the row of blocks 
and you'll reveal a hidden pitfall. Drop down to the floor below and go right. 
Go right and hit the giant blue Bot to make a bunch of regular Bots appear. 
Defeat them all and go right into the next room. In this room, go right across 
the disintegrating bridge. You'll find a narrow pitfall below you. Drop 
through the bridge when the floor below you disappears, then fall down the pit 
to the bottom floor. Once there, head right into the following room. In this 
room, go all the way to the right as far as you can possibly go and the 
Thunderbird will appear. Read the Boss Strategies section for information on 
beating it. After you beat it, continue right and you'll fight Dark Link the 
final boss. After you defeat it in battle, you've beaten the game!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Ache
    Description: A blue colored bat that hangs from the ceiling inside caves.
                 When you walk under them, they'll just swoop down and then
                 fly back up to the ceiling again. You can beat them if you're
                 quick enough with your sword.

Acheman
    Description: This creature is similar to the Ache, but is colored red and
                 does a couple other things, too. It sticks to the ceiling,
                 but when you pass under, it'll swoop down and change into a
                 dragon and shoot fireballs. A few stabs from your sword can
                 defeat it.

Bago-Bago
    Description: This monster resembles the skeleton of a fish. It attacks by
                 flying through the air and spitting out rocks at you, but
                 fortunately you only encounter it when going across bridges.
                 There are two versions of this creature: the blue one found
                 in most of the game, and the reddish-colored ones found only
                 in the Great Palace. The blue one's fireballs can be blocked
                 with your shield, but the red one's can't be. A few hits with
                 the sword should be enough to defeat this enemy, though!

Boon
    Description: This is a really annoying and quick insect that flies above
                 you and drops rocks on your head! Since they fly above you,
                 it's best to use the Up Thrust sword technique to defeat
                 them.

Bot
    Description: Now this is as easy as it can possibly be! This blue and
                 sometimes red blob-like creature does nothing except hop
                 around, which doesn't help it at all! Just squat down and
                 stab it with your sword. There are 3 types of Bots: the blue
                 one in the beginning of the game, the red ones, and the blue
                 one in the Great Palace. They can all be defeated with just a
                 few hits from your sword!

Daira
    Description: This ax-wielding crocodile enemy can be a real pain when you
                 encounter them in the caves. There are 2 types of this enemy:
                 the orange one just swings its axe at you to attack, and the
                 red one, which throws axes at you! Just try and attack it
                 whenever it isn't attacking you.

Deeler
    Description: You can usually find this spider hanging from the trees in
                 forest areas. When you pass under it, it'll lower itself down
                 at you, but usually misses! There are 2 types of this spider:
                 the red one which I just described, and the blue one, which
                 drops down onto the ground when you pass under it and leaps
                 at you to attack! Just stab it with your sword a couple of
                 times.

Doomknocker
    Description: These enemies are those annoying wizard enemies you find in
                 the 4th palace. Your ONLY way of defeating them is to reflect
                 their spells back at them, so cast Reflect on Link, then use
                 your shield to make the spell bounce back at the wizard. You
                 can only hurt it when it's visible.

Fire Dropper
    Description: This wizard-like enemy, found in the later palaces, drop fire
                 on the ground to attack. They then teleport to another part
                 of the screen and drop more fire, which disappears after a
                 couple seconds. Defeat it by attacking it quickly with the
                 Down Stab sword technique when it's visible.

Geldarm
    Description: These long, white caterpillar-like enemies are only found in
                 the desert areas. They stand straight up and you can only
                 harm them by attacking their black pincers on top of them.
                 Cut them down to size by simply stabbing their white section,
                 and then hit them on top.

Goriya
    Description: These are creatures that throw boomerangs and look like
                 wolves walking on 2 feet! They simply walk around and throw
                 boomerangs at you, but you can block them by using your
                 shield. When you can, get close and stab them repeatedly with
                 your sword to kill.

Ironknuckle
    Description: This is an armored knight, complete with sword and shield.
                 They're found only in the palaces and there are 3 different
                 types of Ironknuckles. There are the regular orange ones,
                 which aren't too fast and only try and stab you with their
                 swords. Next, there are the red ones, which are a bit
                 quicker, but only attack by stabbing with their swords.
                 Finally, there's the blue Ironknuckles, which are REALLY
                 annoying! They are really quick, can take more hits than the
                 other 2 types, and can throw swords at you. When attacking
                 these guys, jump in the air, then use your sword on the way
                 down to hit them from above!

Lizardman
    Description: This creature is pretty much like Ironknuckle, except for the
                 fact that it's not found in the palaces. You should take care
                 of these guys just like the Ironknuckles: jump up and hit
                 them with your sword as you come down. There are 3 types of
                 Lizardmen as well: the orange ones, the red ones, and the
                 blue ones. The orange Lizardmen just walk towards you and
                 stab you with their spears. The red ones hit you with a small
                 mace like the Dairas did. Finally, the blue Lizardmen throw
                 those small spiked maces at you!

Lowder
    Description: This is a blue beetle enemy that crawls around in some caves.
                 They rush towards you when sighted, but you can easily avoid
                 them by jumping over them. Just use the Down Thrust sword
                 technique or duck down and stab them a couple times to defeat
                 them.

Megmat
    Description: These enemies move by hopping around. They're mainly found in
                 the grassy plains area. They don't have a real attack, but
                 they do follow you around and try and hit you while they're
                 hopping. A couple blows with your sword will take care of
                 them!

Mini-Horsehead
    Description: This creature is VERY harmless, as it doesn't attack you.
                 They're found in most of the palaces, and they only move
                 across the screen by hopping. You can just defeat them with a
                 single hit from your sword, so you shouldn't worry about
                 these guys! (I made this enemy's name up, but if you know its
                 real name, let me know!)

Mini-Thunderbird
    Description: This smaller version of the boss is found only in the Great
                 Palace. There are 3 types of them all found in this palace,
                 and all of them can be quite annoying! First, there's the red
                 one that hops around and throws fireballs towards you.
                 Second, there's the red Mini-Thunderbird that jumps in the
                 air and uses a sword. Lastly, there's the blue version, which
                 jumps in the air, moves quickly, AND throws swords at you at
                 a faster pace than the blue Ironknuckles! Defeat the first
                 type by hitting it numerous times with your sword, and beat
                 the other two types like you would for an Ironknuckle or a
                 Lizardman.

Moa
    Description: This flying eyeball enemy is sometimes annoying and difficult
                 to reach and defeat. It flies overhead, then makes a U-turn
                 and flies back and drops fireballs on the ground. You should
                 use the Up Thrust sword technique if you choose to fight this
                 creature. Also, there are 2 different types of Moas: the
                 orange one and the blue one. The orange Moa drops the
                 fireballs on you, like I described above. The blue Moa flies
                 around closer to the ground and is really annoying,
                 especially in tight places! Just beat them by hitting them
                 with your sword.

Moblin
    Description: Those large bulldog look-alikes are back in this game from
                 the previous Zelda adventure! They attack by trying to stab
                 you with or even throw their spears at you! There are 3
                 different types of Moblins: the orange Moblins just try to
                 stab you with their spears, the red ones throw spears at you,
                 and the blue ones are a more difficult version of the red
                 ones. You can use your shield to block their spears, then
                 attack them with your sword.

Moby
    Description: This is an orange, flying bird with a different attack
                 pattern than the other enemies. It flies straight down
                 towards the ground until it is level with you, then it darts
                 right in your direction! It's easy to avoid this enemy by
                 simply jumping over or ducking under it as it flies by.

Myu
    Description: This is a small, spiky creature that's mainly found in the
                 caves. Because of its small size, you can't get low enough to
                 attack it directly, but there's only ONE move that can kill
                 it. That move is the Down Thrust technique; just hit Myu from
                 above with it to attack/kill it.

Octorok
    Description: These are those octopus-like creatures that hop in the air
                 and spit out rocks at you. Luckily, their attacks are easy to
                 avoid, so just run in and stab them with your sword.

Rope
    Description: These small snake enemies are usually found in some of the
                 palaces. They don't move that quickly, but they attack by
                 spitting fireballs at you! There are 2 types of this enemy as
                 well: the blue ones and the red ones. They both do the same
                 thing, but the red ones are only found in the Great Palace.
                 Defeat them with a couple stabs with your sword.

Skull Balls
    Description: These are those floating skeleton head things found in the
                 palaces aren't too hard, but they can endure LOTS of hits! If
                 you want to take the time and defeat them, jump above them
                 and use the Down Thrust technique to hit them. Just keep on
                 doing that to defeat them without getting hurt by them as
                 much as you would if you went right up to them and stabbed
                 them directly!

Skull Heads
    Description: These red-colored heads are quite annoying in the fact that
                 they are practically endless when you find them anywhere!
                 They move up and down and shoot a fireball at you each time
                 it pauses. Just defeat it with a couple quick hits from your
                 sword when it isn't attacking.

Stalfos
    Description: These skeleton warriors are pretty easy to beat. You usually
                 can find them lurking in the palaces and they attack you with
                 their sword while they try and defend with their shield. They
                 also can jump in the air, too. An easy way to beat them is
                 different than fighting the Ironknuckles; you can hit them by
                 squatting down and hitting them because they never lower
                 their shield down there!

Stone Warrior
    Description: This is a blue-colored warrior whom I think is made of stone.
                 It throws small hammer-like projectiles at you, which can
                 cause lots of damage if you're not strong enough. Defeat it
                 by using the Shield spell, then jumping and attacking it with
                 your sword when it isn't throwing anything. It helps if you
                 use the Down Thrust sword technique to attack it from above.
                 Also, it can take quite a few blows, so it could be VERY hard
                 fighting this enemy at times!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-=  7. Bosses -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Horsehead
    Found: Palace 1
    Strategy: This creature is the boss of Palace 1 and is the easiest of the
              bosses. The first thing you should do is cast Shield on yourself
              to lower the damage caused by Horsehead's attacks. To beat him,
              just jump up and stab him in the head when you're in close.
              Horsehead's only attack, which is striking you with his spiked
              club; luckily it's easy to avoid! Just keep doing the jump, and
              then stab pattern until Horsehead is defeated.

Helmethead
    Found: Palace 2
    Strategy: This armored knight is the guardian of Palace 2. In order to
              defeat this boss, you should have learned the Down Thrust sword
              technique in Mido. To win this fight, have Link use the magic
              Shield again to cut the damage he takes in half. Then, jump
              above Helmethead and use the Down Thrust technique on its head
              to cause damage. Continue to attack Helmethead's head in that
              manner until it's defeated.

Ironknuckle
    Found: Palace 3
    Strategy: This blue Ironknuckle that's mounted on its horse is the 3rd
              Palace's guardian. As always, have Link cast Shield on himself
              to lower damage inflicted to him. Now, when Ironknuckle rides
              across the screen, jump up and use the Down Thrust technique on
              its head when it passes below you. Keep hitting its head with
              the Down Thrust until it finally gets off the horse and attacks
              you with its sword. All you have to do is defeat it like the
              other Ironknuckles: just jump and attack its head until it's
              defeated.

Carock
    Found: Palace 4
    Strategy: This wizard is the guardian of Palace 4. It mainly appears and
              casts spells towards you, then teleports to another part of the
              room. Since it is pretty strong, you should definitely cast
              Shield on yourself as well as Reflect so you can reflect
              Carock's spells back at it. You should stay in either end of the
              room, facing the room's center. That makes it so that Carock
              can't appear right behind you! Now, just stay in that side and
              whenever its spells come toward you, just reflect it back at it
              with your shield. (It only causes damage when Carock is
              visible.) Then, just keep reflecting its spells and it'll
              eventually be defeated!

Gooma
    Found: Palace 5
    Strategy: This giant troll with the mace is the boss of Palace 5. Cast the
              spells Shield and Jump to be able to take less damage per hit
              and to be able to jump over Gooma. Defeat it by coming in close
              and stabbing it whenever it's not attacking with its mace. When
              it does swing its mace, just avoid getting hit by dodging or
              jumping over it. Keep attacking Gooma until it's defeated.

Barba
    Found: Palace 6
    Strategy: This large dragon that comes out of the lava and attacks is
              Palace 6's guardian. Cast Shield and Jump on yourself for this
              battle, then you'll be ready for this fight! Attack Barba by
              jumping up and hitting its head with your sword while avoiding
              its fire attack by jumping over them or by jumping to another
              platform for safety. Just keep hurting Barba with your sword
              until it's defeated.

Thunderbird
    Found: Great Palace
    Strategy: This is the first of the 2 bosses in the Great Palace. First,
              cast Shield and Jump to make things a little better for Link.
              Then, when Thunderbird appears onscreen, use the Thunder spell
              on it to make it change colors, which makes it vulnerable to
              your attacks. Now, attack it by jumping up and hitting its head
              with your sword. Try and avoid it by moving around the room and
              keep on hitting its head with your sword whenever you get a
              chance. Keep attacking Thunderbird until it's defeated, then
              you'll have to move on to the final boss: Dark Link!

Dark Link
    Found: Great Palace
    Strategy: The final boss of this game is Link's own shadow! Since it has
              all your moves, you should be careful when fighting this guy. To
              win, run in towards the shadow and stab it repeatedly with your
              sword, or let it come to you, then attack it. Keep attacking
              Link's Shadow until it's defeated and you win the game!

-=  8. Items  -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Boots: You use these boots to walk across some bodies of water, such as the
       river flowing through the maze near Palace 4 in East Hyrule. You can
       find these valuable boots inside of Palace 4.

Candle: With this candle in your inventory, darkened caves will become
        lighted. You find this item in Palace 1.

Cross: This cross reveals the ghost enemies that are flying around in the
       graveyard and in Old Kasuto. You can obtain this useful item in Palace
       6.

Flute: When you play the Flute in front of the black spider creature in East
       Hyrule, it makes the spider disappear, granting you access to the rest
       of that continent. You'll find this item in Palace 5.

Hammer: When you get the Hammer, you can destroy those boulders in the
        overworld that block your path once and for all! You can find this
        item in the last cave of the cave maze in the mountainous area at the
        southwest section of West Hyrule.

Handy Glove: When you have this item in your inventory, you can destroy the
             blocks that fall from the ceiling in some palaces with your
             sword. You can get this very helpful item in Palace 2.

Magic Key: When you have this key in your possession, you have absolutely NO
           NEED for the Small Keys in the palaces. The Magic Key can open any
           locked door and is a necessity if you want to get through and beat
           Palace 6 because there are no Small Keys inside! You get this item
           in New Kasuto.

Raft: You need this item to cross the sea and reach East Hyrule and the second
      half of the game. You just have to walk onto the dock near Mido to use
      the Raft and cross the sea. You can find this item in Palace 3.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

(Note: Some spells require you to have a specific amount of Magic/Heart 
Containers, so make sure you have as many as you can get at the point of the 
game you're in; that way you can get the spells without having to come back 
later when you have more Hearts/Magic.)

Shield: This spell raises your defense power, thus allowing you to take more
        hits from an enemy. It cuts all damage taken from enemies by half. You
        get it in Rauru from the old wizard in the 5th house's basement.

Jump: When you use this spell, you can jump twice as high in the air, enabling
      you to jump over taller enemies and reach higher ledges. You get it in
      the town of Ruto after you give the lady standing in front of the 4th
      house the goddess statue found in a cave east and north of town. When
      she lets you in the house, you can just go downstairs and talk to the
      wizard to learn the spell.

Life: This spell restores 3 meters of health on your life bar. It is more than
      likely one of the most useful spells you'll get! You learn it in the
      Water Town of Saria by entering the 3rd house and checking under the
      table to find a mirror. Then, go back to the 2nd house and you'll be
      allowed in; now you can go into the basement and get the magic!

Fairy: Using this spell turns Link into a fairy, enabling you to reach places
       you couldn't normally reach because you can fly! You get it in Mido by
       getting into the 3rd house (the church does NOT count as a house)
       after retrieving the Medicine from a cave north of Saria. Then, just
       visit the wizard in the basement to learn Fairy.

Fire: When you cast this spell, it allows you to shoot a fireball from your
      sword each time you use it! This is the ONLY way you can defeat some of
      the enemies in East Hyrule. You get it in the town of Nabooru by going
      through the town to the fountain, then press B to get water. Then, go
      right and talk to the lady in front of the house; she'll let you in now!
      Then, just go downstairs and learn the spell.

Reflect: When you use your shield while this spell is activated and you can
         reflect enemies' attacks right back at them (in particular, the
         wizards' spells in Palace 4). You get this spell in Darunia by
         visiting the 1st house in the 3rd scene of the town after you find
         the Lost Child in the maze to the east. (Read the walkthrough for
         details on finding the child.)

Spell: This spell has only one purpose in the entire game. You use it in New
       Kasuto at the very last scene of the town to make a hidden room appear
       containing the Magic Key. You find this spell in New Kasuto by entering
       the 8th house (remember to count the houses as you get through town so
       you don't miss it!) and press Up in front of the fireplace, then talk
       to the wizard there to learn Spell.

Thunder: This is the most powerful spell in the game, but it's only important
         use is in the Great Palace. To get this spell, go to Old Kasuto and
         enter the very first house. (Be careful because there are many hidden
         enemies there, unless you've gotten the Cross.) There, go talk to the
         wizard and learn the last spell in the game!

   large boulder in front of the cave. Enter the cave and get through it to
   get the container.

   get this heart container). Go right while pressing upward until you can
   finally go north. Head north as far as you can go, and then go east and
   you'll enter a battle scene. Get through it and find your heart container!

   You'll enter a hidden cave where you'll find the heart container.


Magic Container Locations

   bridge, then head south and you'll find a cave. Enter it and get past some
   Lowders and Octoroks and you'll come to the magic container.

2. After you exit the cave where you obtain the Hammer, go into the desert
   area and destroy the boulder, then walk on that patch of land to fall into
   a hidden cave, You'll see the magic container right there waiting for you
   to take it!

3. In the Island Maze in East Hyrule, follow these directions to find the
   magic container. You should have the Boot if you're going to use these
   directions to get it. From the start of the maze, walk right on the water,
   then follow the stream east, then north. When it turns east again, walk off
   and follow the path left, then up. You'll fall into a hidden cave, where
   you'll find the container.

4. This magic container is located in New Kasuto. In this town, go right to
   the second house and talk to an old lady dressed in blue. She'll let you
   inside her house; now go through the house and get the last magic
   container! (You can only get this Magic Container if you've collected the
   other 3 containers first.)
