About Zelda: Four Swords Adventures
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

This is the latest game in the Zelda series. This game is very similar to the 
Four Swords multiplayer game that was included with the GameBoy Advance 
version of Zelda: A Link to the Past. In this game you control Link, after 
he has been split into four separate versions of himself. Using the team of 
Links, you make your way through the many puzzles of Hyrule and save Zelda 
from the Wind Sorcerer, Vaati. 

This game has two different modes of play: Hyrulean Adventure and Shadow 
Battle. 

Hyrulean Adventure can be played by yourself using a GameCube controller or a 
GameBoy Advanced hooked up to the GameCube. It can also be played with 
friends, but all players are required to use a GBA. Hyrule Adventure is a 
story mode where you travel across Hyrule using a "level" system. It's 
similar to other Zelda games but here, you go to one area of Hyrule, collect 
Force Gems (instead of rupees) pick up weapons (one at a time) and find the 
boss. As you collect more Force gems, your Four Sword powers up and can then 
shoot out beams, like past Zelda adventures. Once you defeat the boss, you 
start a new area - empty handed. If you have played Four Swords on the GBA, 
you know exactly what to do.

Shadow Battle is a multiplayer game much like Hyrulean Adventure. Beat up 
your friends and be the last Link standing.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
GameBoy Advance Connectivity
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Nintendo wants us to hook up our GBAs to our GameCubes. They even give you a 
free link cable when you purchase the game. Using the GameBoy Advance,
you and your friends can take on Hyrule together. Whenever you enter a cave, 
house or something not on the TV map, the GameBoy will show the inside of 
that area. If you don't have a GameBoy Advance, it's okay. You can still play 
Hyrulean Adventure, but instead of showing the inside of an area on the GBA 
screen, a window on the TV pops up and acts as the GBA.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Formations
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

When playing on your own during Hyrulean Adventure, you control the way the 
Links move together. 

Cross Formation: 
This will put all Links back to back in all directions. Use this when there 
are alot of enemy on screen to defend all sides of the group.

Wide Formation:
All Links will line up horizontally to push certain blocks.

Long Formation:
The group will go into a vertical line, allowing them to push certain blocks.

Box Formation:
Links will go into a box shape and this allows them to get through tight 
spots and again, push blocks.

The Box and Cross formations are not available in two - three player modes.
You can not use any formations if there are four players. And you can't make 
formations in side scrolling areas.


=================================================
III. Characters
=================================================

Link -
The Hero of Time. His quest is to take down the Wind Sorcerer, Vatti using 
the Four Sword and dividing into Four seperate Links.

Princess Zelda -
Princess of Hyrule. She was kidnapped by Vaati along with the young maidens.

Tingle -
A human mapmaker who wishes to be a fairy. Along your quest, he will try to 
grab Force Gems that you don't get to quickly enough.

Kaebora Gaepora -
The very wise owl from Ocarina of Time is back to give you more info during 
your quest.

Vaati -
Wind sorcerer who likes to kidnap young maidens. Now Vaati is terrorizing 
Hyrule and kidnapped Zelda.


=================================================
IV. Game Controls
=================================================

You can use a GameCube controller or Game Boy Advance to play Four Swords 
Adventures. To use a GameBoy Advance to play, you need a Nintendo 
GameCube/GameBoy Advance link cable. You can only use the GameCube controller 
on the single player mode, but the GameBoy Advance can be used for any mode.

GameCube Controller -
---------------------

Analog Stick: moves Link around

L Button: displays formation window

R Button: lift items or another Link (when formation is broken)

Control (D) Pad, X Button: breaks formation - use Links separately

C Stick: Formation Quick Change

Z Button: closes GBA window (appears only when using the GC controller)


GameBoy Advance -
-----------------

Control (D) Pad: Move Link 

L Button: displays formation window

R Button: lift objects or another Link (when formation is broken)

A Button: use weapon (if you have one)

B Button: use sword

Select: break formation and use each Link separately.


==========================================
V. Walkthrough 
==========================================


      My walkthrough is based on the single player mode. I have not 
      played using multiplayer so I can get this done faster. Most 
      puzzles will apply to multiplayer mode anyway, but not all of
      them. Don't e-mail me if I mention in a sidenote that a certain 
      area is known to be different in multiplayer. I can't help you.
            I am also using a GameBoy Advance as a controller.

                      === Stage 1: Lake Hylia ===

Wake up the Links and start heading west. You will pass a red house with a 
gate surrounding the backyard. Inside is a man who will teach you about 
formations. After your lesson, head west and push the large block in the 
water to create a bridge. Look for the cave with a stone blocking the way. 
Pick up the stone with the R Button and go inside. Step on the switch, head 
north and grab the boomerang. Now leave the cave and head north where some 
Octoroks are playing. Use the boomerang to grab the key in the northeast 
corner and unlock the door Shadow Link locked. Go through the back door and 
lift up the large stone. Now you have the Fire Rod. Head back to the front 
and burn down the tree stumps surrounding the large stone. Head down the 
steps and get to the other side. Hit the switch on the way to make a bridge. 
Head west and you will find Shadow Link pounding the ground with a magic 
hammer. When he leaves, step on the big switch and a ton of Force Gems will 
fall. Pick them up and head north. Jump into the water and go under the 
bridge. Go up the steps and pick up the large stone. It's Tingle! 

After your chat, jump into the water and swim south of the rocks, going east. 
Go up one of the four tall ladders along the west side of the waterfall. Enter 
the cave and jump into the cannon. Blast up and to your right is the exit.
Go into the next cave and grab the boomerang, then blast up and out to the top 
of the waterfall. head north and behind the waterfall, notice three cave 
openings. Head into the 3rd one on the right and step on all four switches. 
This will create a bridge to your left. Leave and go into the middle cave, 
cross the bridge. There is a star shaped switch near a gap. Have one Link 
stand on it while the others cross the gap and press L to regroup and head 
south. Jump down the waterfall and at the bottom, dive for some Force Gems. 
Now go into the whirlpool in the southeast corner. Swim to the other side and 
push the large stone south. This will make four squares appear. Have each 
Link stand on all four squares and they will be sent across the gap. Step on 
the switch to your south and open the chests to get a blue braclet. Now head 
north and go up the stairs. Pick up the stones and cut down the bushes to 
find a hole. Jump down the hole and make your way to the other side. 

Here you come across a bridge with a group of Blue Soldiers after you. Take 
out the guards and go north where there are some bushes. Chop down the bushes 
and have the Links stand on all four switches, making 2 chests appear. Inside
is a Heart Container and some Force Gems. Go west to find another group of 
soldiers, including a bigger, more armored guard. To kill him, slash at his 
back. When all the guards are dead, it starts raining Force Gems, enough to 
power up your sword to the next level. Walk west and you find the dark 
barrier. Slash each of the eyes and you complete the level.

                             --- Sidenote ---

If you do not have 2000 Force Gems by the time you get to Vaati's barrier, you 
will be asked if you want to go back in time. You cannot break the barrier if 
your sword is not powered up. Go ahead and travel back in time. When you do 
collect enough Force Gems, you are warped back to the barrier, where you can 
then destroy it.


                     === Stage 2: Cave of No Return ===


Make your way through the darkness and grab the lamp. This will let you see a 
wider area around you. Light the torches near the door and go north. Light the 
torches as you pass them to collect some Force Gems. Go to the top of the ring 
of fire and push the blocks out of the way to get in. In each corner of ring, 
there is a block. Push all four of them into the corner and the ring of fire 
will disappear. Open the chest and pick up the small key. Unlock the door in 
the northeast and go in. Push the blocks and kill the rats until you get the 
small key. Head east and unlock the door. Have each Link push their colored 
block to get to the other side and grab the lamp. Light the torches and go 
through the door. This room has 4 traps in the floor. If you fall, oh well. 
One of them leads you to a heart container. When you get to the other side of 
the traps, kill the water jellies and two doors will open. go through the 
east door and destroy all the pots. On the right side of the room a pot has a 
small key inside. When you find the small key, leave this room and go north. 
There is a gap on the left side. Press select and throw a Link to the other 
side and grab the Bow. Press L to regroup and head north. Use your arrows to 
light all the torches and a flock of Geese appear. Line up horizontally and 
shoot them all down. On the other side is a switch that will make a bridge 
appear. Hit it before all the bats die. When all the Geese are gone, it will 
rain Force Gems. 

If you didn't hit the switch yet, they all fall into the abyss instead of on 
the bridge and you get nothing, so make sure you hit the switch before killing 
all the enemies. Head north and down the steps. Here you will meet the first 
of many mages. 

(I don't know about you, but I can't get over the music they play in here....)

Head into the northeast cave behind the mage and open the chests. Keep going 
and you will see another mage. This time go into the northwest cave and open 
some more chests. Head north and you see two more cave but no mage. Head into 
the northeast cave and go up the stairs. There are two handles in the wall. 
Line up vertically and pull the left handle to get a heart container. The 
right one will open the north door. The next room contains Shadow Link. Hit 
hitting him with your sword while you avoid the bombs he drops.  
The bombs he drops can also be used against him if they explode near him.
Eventually, he turns into one of the Four Links. Hit him with the color 
Link he is and he will go away. Go north and break the dark barrier to 
complete the stage.


                       === Stage 3: Hyrule Castle ===


Head north to the castle entrance. There are two guards on the top throwing 
bombs at you. Go to the left side of the entrance and pick up the big stone. 
A stairways appears, so go down the stairs and get to the other side. Now you 
should be on the top of the castle where the bomb guards are. Push the blocks 
out of the way and hit the switch. That will open the front gate and allow you 
to enter the castle. As soon as you go through the gate, you are greeted by a 
group of soldiers and thier leader. Hack away! When the guards are defeated, 
open the chests and grab the Heart Container and Force Gems. Head north and 
pull the switch on the right to open the castle door. 

Inside the castle, go up the stairs to your right and go right one screen. 
Walk down the path and leave the castle going south. You should be on the 
right side roof. Walk into the back of the small building and grab the bow 
that is inside. Shoot an arrow through the door on the other side of the gap.
It will hit the switch on the other side and a bridge will appear along with 
some blocks that disappear. Now you can jump down into a field with some 
brown rocks and bomb plants. Pick a bomb and throw it at the crack in the 
wall. Go into the new opening and you are taken to a side scrolling area with 
some cannons. Jump into the cannon on the right and launch up to the chest and 
get the small key. Now jump into the cannon floating on the left and you will 
be launched onto the roof of the castle. Leap down from the ledge and go back 
into the castle. Walk into the central area of the castle and unlock the 
north door. Head north up the stairs and back outside. Keep going up until 
you enter a courtyard. 

Defeat the guards and a ball and chain appears. He is pretty stong, so be 
careful. When he is defeated, a fleet of guards appear, but you can defeat 
them easily by getting in the cross formation and hacking away. Now you can 
advance forward. Take a left here and get into a wide formation to pull the 
big handle. This will open a gap in the castle. Go into this gap and enter the 
castle. Upstairs there are four different weapons to choose from. Grab the 
bombs and go north. Blow the east wall and talk to the Zora (that's what they
are if you think about A Link to the Past, not Ocarina of Time) that is split 
in half. He will follow you so he can find his other half. Leave this place 
and go west where you will find Shadow Link. You will probably fall down the 
trap near him. Jump into the cannon and blast back up. Avoid the trap and you 
will see 4 black switches. Get into a cross formation and do a spin attack. 
This will hit all 4 at once and create a new path. Walk up to the door, but 
don't go in. Head left from here and you will see two Armos statues. Smash 
the pots behind the statues to find a star shaped switch. Push a statue on 
the switch and a board disappears of some glass pane. Now go into that door 
to your right.

Smash the pot and push the block. Head up the stairs and step on the switches 
under the pots to open the door. You found the other half of the Zora thing. 
Now head back to the barrier in the front of the castle. Go inside and cut 
down any curtains you see. Enter any doorways you find and step on all 
switches you see. This will make the blocks disappear, allowing you to go 
north on the castle roof. Defeat the group of blue guards that appear and 
enter the new door. Inside, defeat the large Armos Statues and cut down any 
curtains you see to get some good stuff that sit behind them. Now push the 
large throne to the right and cut dwon the curtain behind it to get out. 
Here, just blast yourself up until you get back on top of the castle. 

                    --- BOSS BATTLE: Phantom Ganon ---

Have you played the Wind Waker? If you have, then you know what to do for this 
boss. Phantom Ganon is back, and he is the same as before. When he shoots that 
ball at you, knock it back and forth until he is stunned. Then hack away at 
him. Keep doing that and he goes up in a cloud of smoke. Grab the Force Gems 
and head into the new opening. Now save the maiden and Level 1 is complete!

                       === Stage 1: The Coast ===


Move the large stones and jump down to the beach. Head into the cave nearby 
and push the block up. Grab the bombs and blow the north wall. Open the 
chests and blow the other side. Now you are back on the beach. Go south and 
then east. There is no way to get past the house, so you have to go around. 
Walk behind the red house and cut down the bushes. Plant a bomb in the 
spaces in the mountain wall. Some openings should appear. Go in the cave on 
the right and head north. Smash the pots on each side and step on all the 
switches. A bridge will appear. Now head north and you will find a three way 
path. Blow out each of the walls in all three directions. Explore the cave 
and when your ready, go into the north hole and you will find a switch under 
a pot. Have one Link stand on the switch and have another go around, smash 
the pot underneath the other Link and stand on the other switch, and a bridge 
will appear. Press L to regroup and head south, where you can blow up the 
wall. Now you should be outside in the red house's backyard. 

Go east and jump down onto the beach. Go past the blue Octoroks and continue 
east. Here you step on a switch and some Zora's will appear. Go into the 
whirlpool. Inside the whirlpool, swim left and go into the right cave. When 
you get the slingshot, go into left cave and give it to a Great Fairy so she 
can make it a Lvl. 2 Slingshot. Now head back above water and shoot the 
Zoras. When they are all dead, you can head east. Make your way through the 
crabs on the beach and collect the million Force Gems that fall when all the 
crabs are dead. In the next area, you have a fun game with Shadow Link. He 
drops a huge bomb on the beach and you have ten seconds to get underground 
before it blows. When it does blow up, get up above ground and get as far as 
you can, then go back underground. Make sure you grab the bombs you come 
across, you're going to need them. Keep doing this until you get to the other 
side. 

Go east and you will see some bushes and Octoroks. Cut down some bushes and 
you will find a hole in the ground. Hop down in there and you will get a heart 
container. Head east and there are some more bushes to cut. You should 
eventually find a hole. Fall into the hole and it leads to a large block. Push 
the block to the left and go down. There are three openings to go through. Go 
through the one all the way to the left. Now you are on a beach. There are 
three big Force Gems sitting there. Or are they? Attack the Gems before you 
walk into them and you will realize they are enemies dressed as Force Gems. 
Kill the enemies and you will get your reward. Head east along the beach and 
go behind the large tree. Walk through the cave and you will end up back 
outside on the coast. Destroy all the pink Octoroks and head east. There you 
will meet Shadow Link and his big bombs again. Just dive for Force Gems and 
when you are done, head northeast to the boss.

This boss is not too hard. Hit each claw with the corosponding Link color 
until he is destroyed. Head north and destroy the barrier. Stage Complete! 


                 === Stage 2: Village of the Blue Maiden ===


Go through the village gate and talk to the owl. After that, cut down the 
bushes near the pool to the left. Step on the switches and two chests will 
appear. Look at the flower patch near the owl's perch. It shines for some 
reason. Go talk to the old man near the gate and he will give you the Moon 
Pearl. Carry the Moon Pearl to the flower patch and a portal appears. Go into 
the portal and you are taken to the "mirror" side of this area. Go into the 
central portal and you are taken to the other side of the original area. Go 
left and you see a guy called Secret Agent Two. He isn't important right now, 
so go south from where he is standing. Talk to the mage and she will give you 
a Moon Pearl. Take that moon pearl and go to the central area. Now go north, 
then west. Here you will see a long line of people. Go to the bottom of the 
line and you will see a shine. Walk into it with the Moon Pearl and you are 
taken to the "mirror" part of the area. Make the Links go into a box formation 
and step on the switch. Talk to the lady and she tells you to find her friend 
in 20 seconds. When you get to him, he will let you have the Pegasus Boots. 

Now you can break those bricks near the lady. Go back through the portal. 
Using the boots, break through that line. Talk to the green guy, Secret Agent 
One. He will tell you about the secret entrance to the Seeker's Guild. Go to 
the right of the house and walk in. Talk to the pirate guy and he will ask 
you to help him with the Mage problem. Talk to Agent One and he will give you 
a clue - "The Six..." Now go back to Agent Two. He gives you another clue - 
"Deeply connected to this village..." Now go east two screens until you get 
to a building with four doors that seems to be blocked off by a fence. Go 
into the house to the right and grab the lamp. Use this to burn the stump 
near the gate to get in the four door house. Go into the fourth door and talk 
to another Secret Agent. He gives you another clue - "Beautiful!" Now go west 
then north and go up. The last Secret Agent will give you a clue - 
"Protect..." Now that you have all the clues, go back to the Seeker's Guild 
leader in the house where everyone is standing in line. Talk to him and he 
will ask you what you think all the clues are about. Select "Maidens" and he 
will give you a shovel and tell you to dig by the house of pots in the 
southeast part of the village. 

Dig in the front of the house and a hole appears. Go down the hole and climb 
the ladder to get to the other side. Now head south to the rest area and cut 
down the bushes. Break formation and get Link to step on each one and a Moon 
Pearl and 100 Force Gem falls from the sky. Grab the moon pearl and take it 
north. Go up between the two trees and a portal will appear. This takes you to 
the "mirror" version of the area. Go into the blue house in the northeast 
corner and talk to the left girl. She will give you the Fire Rod. Use this to 
burn down the tree stumps in front of the four door house. Go inside, grab the 
Force Gems and get out. Go through the secret passage on the east side of the 
four door house and talk to the girl. She has a letter she wants you to give 
to her boyfriend. Go in the portal, in the hole, through the other side. Go 
east one screen and north. See the huge patch of grass and the guy standing 
there? Give him the letter and he will give you Roc's Feather. Go inside the 
long blue house to the left. Jump across the space and have Link push the 
barrels out of the way. Talk to the Mage and she gives you a book to give to 
Iris. 

Now go left one screen and using the box formation, push that fat lady to the 
left so you can get in the shop. Drop the book and open up the chest. It's a 
moon pearl. Now you have two items though. What are you going to do? Press 
select and have the red Link grab the book. Press L and now 2 Links are 
carrying something. Remember that for the future. Go right one screen and walk 
up behine the Secret Agent. A portal will appear and you are sent to the 
"mirror" version of this section. Go to where you gave letter to the guy and 
instead you see Iris. Give her the book and she will make a house appear on 
the other side of the portal. Go inside the house to find the couple safe in 
their home. Go down the stairs and make your way back outside. Go right and 
you will see Tingle in the air. Get to the other side and get that purple 
Force Gem before he does. After that, jump up to get the green Force Gem and 
go right. It starts raining. Go right another screen and Shadow Link appears. 
He will transport through here and the "mirror" world. Follow him between 
portals and slash at him. Eventually, he will turn into one of the Links. 
Whatever color tunic he is wearing, use that Link to hit him. Eventually, he 
will give up. After the battle, the people from the village come to thank 
you. Now head north and hit the Vaati barrier to end the stage.


                       === Stage 3: Eastern Temple ===


This place seems familiar....

Head inside and you will see some pots. Smash them and step on the switches. 
You get a small key. If you go right, you will see some tiles on the floor. 
Get into a cross formation and step on the tiles and two chests appear. Get 
the Force Gems and go left and through the locked door. Kill the stalfos and 
go north. Make your way past the flying marbles and kill the snakes. Go north. 
Defeat the Stalfos and Shadow Link. Grab the slingshot and step on the 
switches on the left side of the flying Force Gems. Go west. Shoot the 
switches north of the spikes to get them back in the ground. Push the block 
left and head north. Defeat the Wizzrobe and avoid the Stalfos skulls. A 
chest with a moon pearl will appear. Grab the Moon Pearl and go south. Push 
the block south and go left.There are two chests sitting in the miidle of the 
room. The right one has 100 Force Gems, the other one, a huge bomb, the kind 
Shadow Link likes to play with.If you do open the one with the bomb, jump 
down one of the holes on the left before it blows. Now you can see why I 
wanted you to go left. There are chests on this side. Keep going down each 
hole until you get the small key (you should have the moon pearl still). Go 
back to the block and push it right and go south using the key. Talk to the 
old ghost man. He tells you about the moon pearl. 

If you are going by my guide, you have it and you can just ignore the old 
fogie. Walk below him and a portal appears. Go through it and you notice all 
the marbles that would be hitting you without the portal. Walk past the few 
that do appear in the "mirror" section and back into the other portal. Step 
on the tiles on the platform to open the door to go east. Go down the stairs 
and grab the bow. Go back through the marble path and near the portal, notice 
two red eye. Shoot them and a chest appears. Inside is a blue braclet. Now go 
back to the block and push it north and head east. 

See the vines on the north wall? Slash them and a passageway appears. Go in 
and shoot arrows through the large hole in the east wall and you will notice 
that they hit switches where the Force Gems are flying. Hit all four and a 
bridge will appear under the Force Gems. Now step on the raised tile on the 
east side of the bridge to open the door. Jump down to where the rats are and 
go through the north door. Defeat the Wizzrobes and a Moon Pearl will appear. 
grab it and go to the shiny part of the floor. In the "mirror" part of the 
area, you will see four handles. Line the Links up horizontally and pull all 
four. A bunch of red Force Gems will appear along with bombs. Hurry back 
through the portal and grab the Gems before they disappear. Grab the bombs 
and leave. Go east and blast the hole in the east and south walls without 
being hit by the marbles.

The upper east hole has a force fairy, the lower east has a small key. The 
south holes lead to the same place, some chests with Force Gems. Go west and 
unlock the south door. Break the pots and step on the switches. When the 
spikes go down, head south until you fall down a trap hole. Watch out for the 
huge marble, it has a mind of it's own and will follow you. Push the blocks 
out of the way and go up the stairs in the northwest corner of the room. Go 
through the west door and you will come to a series of small rooms with vines 
and cracked walls. I don't need to explain it, just blow up walls and cut 
down vines. You will end up in an area with blocks. Push the blocks out of the
way and continue on until you get the lamp. 

                              --- Sidenote ---
 
   I get numerous e-mails about this area. If you are playing multiplayer,
   this area of the temple will be different. I do not know how to get
   through this part in multiplayer. Don't e-mail me unless you are playing
   single player.

Now make your way back to the bridge where you got the flying green Force 
Gems, lighting any torches neccesary. When you get to the bridge, go north 
and light the torches, and the door will open. Here you face the famous 
flying tiles - and statues. Yeah, after the tiles are done, Armos Statues 
will start flying, and these guys are big. When the dust clears, head north 
to the next room. Here,there are four Shadow Links. Let them run into the 
wall and they will get dizzy, allowing you to slash them dead. There is long 
row of bombs surrounding the room. Throw one of the middle ones at the row 
and it starts a chain of explosions, letting you go north to the next room. 
Some annoying Wizzrobes are back and instead of trying to kill you, they 
steal your hard earned Force Gems. 

Kill the rats and then go after the Wizzrobes. Don't worry about the Gems, you 
get paid quite well after defeating them. I do not know how to open that chest 
in the middle, if it is even a chest. When I figure it out, I will add it. Go 
north and it's boss time.

                     --- BOSS BATTLE: Stone Arrghus ---

This guy isn't too bad. First, jump down one of the holes in the ground and 
grab the boomerang. Now get into the cross formation and use the boomerang to 
grab pieces of rock and kill them. When all the rocks are dead, it's eye will 
turn red. Slash at the eye and he will sit there until he gets fed up, jumps 
into the air and tries to pound you. Watch for his shadow and move to any 
corner of the room before he comes down, you will not be stunned. Continue 
slashing at his eye until he turns into a cloud of smoke. Head north and 
free the maiden.

                 === Stage 1: Death Mountain Foothills ===


Head east then north. Here you will find an area controlled by green guards
with arrows. In the northeast corner of this area is a house with arrows. Grab 
them and kill the guards in the house. When all the guards in the area are 
gone, the path leading north is opened. Cross the bridge and you will find two 
Shadow Links burning down some grass. Hit them while they are doing this to 
get 100 Force Gems. Pick up the bomb plant and throw it in front of the hill 
where there is a dirt patch. This will create a cave you can enter. Take 
another bomb and place it in front of the tree on top of the hill. This will 
make a new cave too. 

Have one Link stay on the left side of the cave and have another go on the 
right side and stand on the star shaped switch under the pot. Then the left 
Link can shoot arrows at the crystals and this will create a bridge. Press L 
to regroup and head north. Defeat the Cukemans and head to the ladder in the 
northwest of the area. There are two ladders here. Climb the left one, go 
right and jump down. Talk to the old man and then pick up the stone next to 
him. Jump from the ledge where the stone was and continue east. 

Go past the rock enemies and keep going east. Here you will see a house with 
flames coming out of it. If you talk to the man inside, he will tell you that 
the house is so light, that Links can push it. So go ahead and push that house 
around and kill all of the rock enemies in the area. If the house gets stuck, 
just leave and come back. The house will go back to where it was, but the 
enemies that you killed will still be dead. After all the enemies are 
destroyed, Magic Hammers will appear in the northwest part of the area. Pick 
up the hammer and go west. Use the hammer to kill the rock guys and go north, 
where there are stakes in the ground. Hammer down the stakes and continue 
north. Here Shadow Link is hanging out. Get near the gate and hold down A. 
This will make a shockwave and blow up the bombs in the field. This will 
eventually burn down the tree trunk near the front of the gate. Now you can 
enter the field if you want. Pound the stakes that block the path and go east. 
Here you will see a giant Cyclops. Hit him and run so he dosen't pound you. 
He is strong, so watch it. When he is defeated, the path leading north is 
opened.

Step on the switch here to start another battle with Cyclops, but this time, 
there are three of them. Use the same technique as before to kill them, then 
head north. Yeah, when I walked in this area, I freaked out too. Go directly 
into the cave to the east. Here you get the Quake Medallion. When you leave 
the cave, throw the medallion and all of the enemies turn into harmless blue 
blobs. Destroy them all and head north up the ladder. In the middle of the 
ladder is a weird warp spot. This takes you to a Lost Woods type puzzle. 
Just go up. No matter what you think is going to happen, just keep climbing 
up and you will get to the other side of the ladder. Here you wil go against 
a bunch of guards and their leader. When they all bite the dust, you can move 
east, break the barrier and complete the stage.
 

                      === Stage 2: The Mountain Path ===                     
			

Talk to the owl and he will tell you about the Goron's problems. Head north 
and a Goron will ask you to put out the fire with water jars. In the cave 
behind that Goron are some water jars. Use those to put out the fires on the 
hill. When all the fires are out, head up the ladder going north. Now you 
have to go through a series of caves. There are 3 on the bottom level. Go 
into the first one on the left and get water to put out the fire blocking the 
third cave to the right. In the second cave in the middle, grab the Magic 
Hammer. Go into the third cave and that will lead to the fourth level of the 
mountain. Pound the stakes in and drop down from where they were. Inside you 
will see some boulders. Push these and they will roll into the gaps in the 
ground, making a bridge. When you get to the Goron, have all 4 Links pick up 
a red jar of oil. Don't break these, you need them soon. 

When all the fire is out, take the jars of oil up the huge ladder and go 
north. On the wall you will see white ropes. Have one Link throw his jar of 
oil nearthe ropes. The camera will show you where it will lead. If it hits a 
black pot, run into the nearby cave, cause that sucker is gonna blow! Inside 
that cave is a boomerang, so grab it. When all four pots are gone, climb up 
the ladder and jump down the hole. Give the fairy your boomerang and you will 
get a Lvl. 2 Boomerang. Now head east. Let a rock go inside the gap and then 
hurry up and cross. Use your boomerang to grab Force Gems on the way if you 
like. When you get to the end of the path, go north up the ladder and you 
will come upon a house on the summit. 

Inside the house is a Magic Hammer. Grab it and pound the stakes surrounding 
the house. Then push the house aside to get into the cave. Inside is some oil, 
but you don't need it right now. Head east from the house and you will see two 
Gorons and a lot of fire. They tell you about a Goron that has a key. Get into 
a cross formation and charge up your hammers and pound near the flames. Two 
Gorons come out of nowhere and one has the key. Grab the key and go into the 
cave to unlock the door. Inside are some water jars. Use the jars to put out 
the fires in front of the ladders. Go up the ladder and head north. Now you 
battle Shadow Link X 4. Do whatever you did to kill him before. If he runs 
into a house, go ahead and follow him. When he is defeated, the path going 
north is unlocked. Head north and talk to the owl. He tells you about the 
giant bird and flys off. Go east and the boss awaits.

You problably knew by now the giant bird everyone is scared of is actually the 
Helamroc King, the bird who kidnapped Aryll in the Wind Waker. This is an 
intresting battle. First, throw a bomb at him when he flies by and avoid the 
rocks that fall when he is flying. If a bomb hits, he will crash into one of 
the dirt huts. Go inside and hit him in the head with the hammer. Do this 
enough and his crown will fall off, showing his chicken head. Avoid the rocks 
that fall when he is flying. Keep throwing bombs at him and slashing your 
sword at his head until he is defeated. Destroy the Vaati barrier and the 
job is done.


                       === Stage 3: Tower of Flames ===  
  

Walk on in and you will see two statues shooting out flames. When they stop 
shooting the flames, pick up the jar on the left side and underneath is a 
switch that activates a slingshot. Grab the slingshot and use it to hit the 
floating switches on both sides. One of them is out of sight, so power up your 
slingshot to see it. head north avoiding the flame statues and go upstairs. In 
this room there are more flame statues. Walk around them and when you get to 
the other side, grab the boomerang. Head east into the next room. Either knock 
the enemies into the lava or stun the guys with the boomerang and slash at 
them. When they are all gone, the north door exit will open. Before going on, 
break the pot in the southeast corner and step on the switch. A Heart 
Container appears in a chest. Open the chest and head north. 

Get on the floating platform and go west. Throw a Link onto the platform where 
the Armos statues are and regroup. Smash the pots and push the statues onto 
the switches. This will activate the tiles and they will start flying at you. 
When all of it is over, Roc's Feather will appear. Grab it and go east. Jump 
the platforms, opening chests on your way and head into the northeast exit. 
In this area, two Shadow Links run into the wall and get dizzy. Take them out 
and get some Force Gems. In the middle of the room is four pots in between 
flame statues. When they are not blowing fire, destroy the pots and step on 
the switches, turning off all the statues in the room. Break the pots along 
the north wall and one should reveal a hole. Go down the hole to find a 
platform surrounded by lava. Try to get Link to go down the right hole and 
find the small key. When you get the key, climb back up and unlock the door on 
the west side of the room. In this next room you have to fight a ball and 
chain that has a ring of fire around him. Jump over the ring of fire and hold 
B, to stab him. Keep doing this until he is destroyed. Now you can go north. 
In this room, grab the arrows to the left and hit the switches as needed to 
get to the other side. The next room requires you to do the same thing. 

Exit to the north. Same thing again, exit to the west. Now you fight two 
Shadow Links. You've done it before, now do it again. When they are dead, 
continue north. In this room, throw a Link across the gap and have him step 
on a switch. This will close some of the gap.There is also another four set 
switchin between to flame statues. break the pots and stand on the switches. 
This will make bombs appear. Pick up the bombs and go east to fight the boss. 

                       --- BOSS BATTLE: Small Dodongos ---

Dodongos. Makes sense. If you played Zelda before, you know what to do. When 
they breathe in, toss a bomb in their mouth and blamo. But these guys are no 
picnic because now they can shoot long streams of fire out of their mouth.
When all three are dead, exit north. There are flames blocking the north exit,
so head east. Outside, the owl flies in and tells you about Hyrule Castle.
When he is done, go back and the flames are gone. Time to head north and 
rescue the maiden. Level 3 is complete.

                         === Stage 1: The Field ===   


Go up and talk to Malon. She asks that you take her with you. As if you had a 
choice, go ahead and say yes. Now cross the path of the cannons. Be careful
because if Malon is hit, you die along with her. Go east along the path until
you get to Talon. He thanks you by giving you some carrots. Now you can ride
on horseback. Go down the steps near the house and grab the boomerang. Go 
east and read the stone. It will give you a carrot. Use the carrot and you 
will get on a horse. Ride the horse down the path, jumping fences on the way.
When the path ends, a gate will close up behind you and the sun will come 
out. Go north pass the grass field. Now go one screen left and you should see 
a red house. Go inside and the man asks you to destroy the one eyed beasts
walking around. He gives you the key to the storage shed. Go east to the shed
and grab the pegasus boots. Now head north and you will see Tingle fly by
and a huge log blocking the path going north. Line up horizontally and pick
up the log and head north. Pick up the stone and go down the steps. Give
the Great Fairy the Pegasus Boots and you get the Lvl. 2 version. This
will allow you to run over holes. Head south and then west. Go north and
pull the log out of the cave to get inside. When you get out, go left
and pull the log back so the path over the holes is clear. Have one Link go
inside the north cave and stand on the star-shaped switch. have another 
go back and run across the holes to the left. 

When one Link gets to the other side, push the block, regroup and go up the
stairs. Head north into the cave. Go left push the blocks so you can get
the key. Now go east and unlock the north door. Keep going north and grab the 
bow. Now head back to the fields and kill all the one eyed creatures. When
that is done, talk to the man who gave you the storage key. He will give you
the shovel for destroying the creatures. Take the shovel to the Great Fairy
and she will give you the Lvl. 2 version that makes the GBA beep when you
are near a hole. Use it in the area where Tingle is flying to find the hole 
that leads to the end of the level. On the other side, pick up the 1000 
Force Gem and go east down the path until you get to a red house and some 
soldiers. Defeat the soldiers, and two ball and chains appear. Defeat them
and another group of soliders appears. Hit the leader that is hiding in the 
west trees to start the fight. When all are dead, head north to the boss.

You enter and see a large blue platform in the ground with two Stalfos
walking around. Kill the Stalfos and you are sucked into another 
dimension with a large Stalfos knight. Do your best to defeat him and 
complete the level.


                          === Stage 2: The Swamp ===  


When the owl is done flapping it's jaws, head north, avoiding the poison 
swamps. Shadow Link is back, throwing his giant bombs. Go into the little 
cave for shelter. When the bomb goes off, take the bomb from the southeast
corner and throw it in front of the hill at where the bulge comes out. 
This is hard to describe, but you will see what I mean. Take this cave to 
the other side of the hill. Now there are some poison spots you need to 
cross. Throw one Link over the poison and regroup. Keep doing this until you
get to the other side. Be quick about it because you are still effected by
Shadow Link's bombs. In this area you will see a large stone. Pick it up 
and go down the staircase. Go east and down the ladder to pick up Roc's
Feather. Get back above ground and jump the lilypads until you get to
another staircase under a rock. Use the jump and stab attack to break the
rocks through out the cave. When you are finished exploring, use the cannon
to blast out of there. Head west to do some more lilypad jumping. When you
get to the other side, you are greeted by a group of soliders. If you
still have Roc's Feather (which you should), get into a cross formation, 
jump in the middle of the group and do a jumping stab attack. This should 
take out the crowd in two hits. 

Go west to find four Zoras that hide underneath lilypads. Step on one and 
wait until it lauches you in the air. Now aim the Links toward the grass. 
Do this to get to the west side of the area and cut down the bushes you see. 
Stand of the switches that appear and have two Links step on the switches in 
the middle of the north area. This will cause a big Force Gem to fall. Now 
head north. Kind of like before, use the lilypads to get to the switches. 
This will make more lilypads appear, allowing you to go north. Jump to the 
other side of the posts in the ground to get a heart container. Now go back 
to where a bomb sits and throw it at the wall right there. This will make a 
cave to get through. When you are done in the cave, you will end up in a
graveyard. When you first enter, push the first row of tombstones back.
One will lead you to a hole. Down here, jump left and do a jumping stab 
attack to break the pot behind the block. Step on the switch, grab the bow,
hit the switches and out we go.

By the way, there is a tombstone in the northeast corner in between some 
stones that leads to a blue braclet. 

Head north and then go south where the two tombstones and the ghost girl are.
This path will take you to another graveyard. Push the middle tombstone back 
to reveal a hole. When you get down there, go north and hit the two switches 
with your arrows. Head west and shoot the two orbs that are in your reach.
Nothing happens but that's okay. Now go east two screens and open the chest.
Go west one screen and north one. Here you see four of those things that 
shoot at you if you walk past them. Go west and kill the 3 Keese that are 
sitting there. This will make a bridge for you to cross. Go south and shoot
the other two orbs and a key will appear. Grab the key, go north, then east,
and unlock the east door. Grab the moon pearl and head back to the graveyard.

Notice that poison lake east of the little ghost girl. Near there is a flower
patch. Take the moon pearl there and you go to the "mirror" world. Walk to 
portal on the other side and you are next to the house with the big ghosts.
There are four bushes near the poison pool. Cut the bushes and step on all
four switches to make all the ghosts disappear and the pool will go as well.
Go inside the house and you will find Dampe, doing the same job he's had
since Ocarina of Time. Open the chest next to him to get a power bracelet.

The game says this allows you to lift almost anything. So I'm thinking 
tombstones or something. Not uprooting trees. Go behind the little ghost 
girl is a tree. Rip it out of the ground and head east to the Forest of
Darkness. Here try to avoid the spotlights, or a circle of ghosts will 
surround you and you will have to fend them off. Grab the lanturn in the 
southern part of the area and head east, uprooting some trees. Head north
and light the four lanturns in each corner of the area by standing on the 
switches that lie next to them. When all four are lit and the four ghosts 
are gone you meet the boss.

He's back, but just his head. Wind Waker fans will remember Jalhalla from the
Earth Temple. Have one Link stand on a switch to keep a lanturn burning.
Then Jalhalla will absorb the light. After he absorbs the light, he will
become vulnerable. Slash him and he will spread out some ghosts. Kill the
ghosts and he will get smaller. Keep doing the same thing until he is
destroyed. Head north and destroy the barrier. Stage Complete.


               === Stage 3: Infiltration of Hyrule Castle ===  


Head north to the outside of the castle. If you make noise, the spotlights
will catch you and you are sent to a jail cell. 

If you do go to the jail cell, break the jars in the cell and go down 
the hole. On the other side, grab the boomerang and go back to the first 
cell. Use the boomerang to break the jars south of the cell and grab the 
small key. Unlock the cell and go west towards the exit.

Make your way west along the castle walls, avoiding spotlights. Dive when
you need to. When you get to the end of the path, go into one of the four
doorways in the wall. Head north and you will be in the Basement. Avoid the
red guys and head south. Go right and you will see a stone rectangle with 
four red guys in it. Go around and push the block down to get in and grab
the small key from the chest. Take the key and go east. Head north here
and pull the switch out of the wall and go left into the previous room.
When the red guys aren't in the way, pull the large switch out of the 
wall and a Moon Pearl will fall. take the moon pearl back to where you got
the small key and a portal will appear. Go into the "mirror" version
of the room and push the blocks out of the way to get the bow. Now head 
back to the dark room with the orbs on the right. 

Shoot the orbs with an arrow to light up the platforms. Now they are always
there, but you cannot see them without shooting the orbs. Open all the 
chests you might find in the room and one of them has a small key. When you
are ready, go to the southeast corner of the room and unlock the door.
This next room has you light all the torches by shooting arrows through
the lit lamps. When all the torches are lit, a path will be created.

Walk through one of the southeast doors. Now you're back outside. Once
again, hide from the spotlights or you are sent to jail. 

If you are spotted, you are taken to a different jail cell than before. 
Escape and head west. Go down the hole in the roof and soon you will be able 
to jump off the side of the roof. When you get down, there are some jars, a 
chest and more searchlights. Don't be tempted to break the pots, just grab 
the key out of the chest and go back into the room with the torches. Now 
that you have the key, you can unlock the door in the northeast corner. Go 
inside and grab the lamp. Go to the four unlit torches in the middle of the 
room. Get into a cross formation and light all four at once to open the north
door and make a big Force Gem fall. Head north and light the torches to enter
the boss chamber.

                       --- BOSS BATTLE: Big Poe ---

I thought we got rid of him last time. Nope. Jalhalla is back and this is 
much more like the battle you had in the Wind Waker. Light all four torches
before he blows them out. When all four are lit, he will become vulnerable.
Slash at him and he will suck you up. Inside his belly, attack the little 
green guy and he spits you out. Continue doing this until he is gone for
good. Head north and save the maiden. Level Complete!

                       === Stage 1: The Lost Woods ===  


Go east and then south, avoiding enemies on the way. Keep going south as
far as you can, where you will see a large switch. Step on the switch and
Wizzrobes will appear. Defeat the enemies and pick up the small key. Go into
the skull head in the corner, unlock the door and grab Roc's Feather. Leave
the skull and head north one screen and east one screen. Get into a cross
formation and hit the switches. Jump over the gap and grab the Moon Pearl.
Go east, then north, and east again. Talk to the Deku Scrub and he has
something intresting to say. Next to him is the portal to the "mirror"
world, so carry the moon pearl over there and jump into the portal.
Grab the lamp and go back to the normal side of things. Go west one screen,
south once, burn the stumps and go west. Head west again and then south to 
find an area with a portal. Don't go in yet. Go down and you'll find a Deku
Scrub standing there. Next to him is a shadow. Go into the portal now and 
talk to the other Deku Scrub and agree to help him. He will tell you to
bring his friend three items in a certain order. When he gets all three
items, the underground Deku Scrub will give you a Power Braclet. Use
this to lift the trees that are blocking the path north of here. Go west
and you will find a bunch of bushes and four black switches. 

Hit all the switches and burn all the bushes. There are a couple of holes
in the ground now. Go in the northeast hole and grab the bow. Go north now
to fight a boss. This is just a really big one eyed freak from before and
he also shoots fireballs. When he dies, go east, pick up the log and toss
it. Grab the key and throw a Link over the holes. Select that Link and
regroup on the other side. Pick up the trees to get out of there and go 
north one screen. Destroy all the enemies in the area and the stone in front
of the skull will go away. Go inside to find the Great Fairy. If you want, 
toss the bow in there, but you won't have it much longer.

From this point, go south a screen, east and north a screen and you will see
a group of Deku Scrubs. Go inside the skull they are surrounding and grab the 
shovel. Take the shovel to the Great Fairy and upgrade it. In the area left
of the circle of Deku Scrubs is where you need to dig. When the beeper goes
off, start digging and you find a hole. Jump down the hole and on the other 
side is Shadow Link. He throws giant bombs this time. In the area in front 
of the bomb is an area that makes the GBA beep. Dig until you find the hole 
and jump down. Go up to the other side and it's stage complete!


                     === Stage 2: Kakariko Village ===


After the owl chat, head into the burning village. Go the the house in the
southeast corner of the Kakariko. There is a hole surrounded by bushes.
Go down that hole and you will see two more holes in front of you.
Go down the one you landed in front of and two more show up. Keep going down
the hole in front of you until you get to the bombs. Go inside the house 
next to the hole and blow up the north wall. This will take you to the 
backyard. Grab a Cucco and take it to the house in the front of the village,
where the lady is standing. Inside the house is a lonely old man. Give him 
the Cucco and he gives you the key to unlock the block next to him.
Unlock it and grab the Force Gems then go up and open the other two chests. 
One of them has a power bracelet that lets you pick up trees. 

Head for the house in the northeast corner, Inside is a man who put up fence
to keep the theives from escaping. Your job, if you want ot leave the village, 
is to find all ten thieves and throw them in the pen next to his house.
When you find a thief, hit him with your sword to stun him and pick him
up with your new bracelet. Here is the location of the thieves:

1.  Under a tree in the beginning of the level where you talked to the owl.
2.  In the trees on the west side of the village.
3.  Under a stone in the south part of the village. 
4.  Inside the back of the southwest house on the right.
5.  Near the pen in the northeast corner of the village.
6.  Near the pen in the northeast corner of the village.
7.  Under the rock in the northeast corner of the village.
8.  Under the rock in the northeast corner of the village.
9.  In a hole near the shovel man's house, east of the village.
10. Under a bush, in a hole, left of the house where thief 4 was.

When all the thieves are in the pen, the spikes go down allowing you to head
north. Go through the fire maze and lift up the stone at the end. Get the
Flame Rod and head north. Light all the four torches around the old guy and
it will start to rain. Yay! The fires are out! Now go east of the village
and the shovel guy's house to fight Shadow Link.

There are four of them and they will hide in holes in the ground. Have each 
Link step on a switch near each hole and have the last Link fight Shadow
Link. When you are done, head east. Follow the river flow until you get to
the boss. 

This is another fight with a Stalfos Knight for the green Jewel. Do what you
did last time to beat him and it's stage complete!


                    === Stage 3: Temple of Darkness ===


Head into the temple and hit the switch. Cross the path and open the chests.
Grab the bow and head north. Line up horizontally and and hold down A to
fire charged up arrows at the army of enemies. All of them will die at once
and the door on the right will open. Hit the red crystal to lower the blue
posts and head north. Do not open that chest! There is a huge bomb inside 
and you know what will happen in ten seconds. Just let it be and head west 
up the wall and into the room with some stalfos. Beat the stalfos with the
key and go down the steps. Get the Magic Hammer and go back to the crystal
and make it red. Go north and go up along the east wall and unlock the block
with the key you got from the stalfos. Jump down and open the right chest,
open the other one and you get another big bomb. Now head south and down the
stairs. Grab the bomb next to the spikes and blow the north and south walls 
of the stone hut looking thing. Inside you will see a Deku Scrub that 
explains that is both sides are blown out, the foundation can be moved.

When both sides of it are blown out, push it so it runs over the two spikey
blocks. Now push it south so it creates a "bridge" over the gap. Now go
south and hit the four switches and the big spikes will lower into the 
ground. Now push the foundation over the other spikey blocks so you can
exit through the southeast door. Pound the moles and get on the wooden
platform. Ride over to the handles and pull them out of the wall. This will
open the door to the north. Go around and exit through that door.

                             --- Sidenote ---

      The wooden platform does not seem to be in the multiplayer version 
      of the level. I have received numerous e-mails about it. Credit to
      David Bulit for bringing this to my attention. Once again, I do 
      not know how to get past this part in the multiplayer part of this 
      game. 


      --- This is a multiplayer solution provided by Scott Hammack ---

 | In the room with the foundation for the statue of Ganon, after you've  |
 | lowered the big spikes, push the foundation around so that it destroys |
 | all the spiky blocks in the room and both of the doorways in the east  |
 | wall are accessible. Divide your party into two pairs of Links, then   |
 | send two Links through the top doorway and two through the bottom      |
 | doorway at the same time. Whoever has the Magic Hammer should be on    |
 | the bottom. In the new room, have the bottom set of Links pound the    |
 | moles, then go to the pedestal and exchange your Hammer for the        |
 | Slingshot, then break the pot and stand on the switch. This will open  |
 | a path for the top set of Links, who should take the Hammer off the    |
 | pedestal, pound the top set of moles, break the pot, and step on the   |
 | switch, which will open more of the bottom path. At this point both    |
 | sets of Links should be able to proceed east to the end of the         |
 | corridor and break the pots. Have all four Links stand on these        |
 | switches at the same time to open the way forward and make a giant     |
 | Force Gem (worth 1,000) appear. You will then be able to proceed       |
 | north to the room with the ball and chain trooper.                     |
 |________________________________________________________________________|


In this room is a ball and chain surrounded by breakable blocks. Avoid
his attacks and defeat him. Go through the southeast door to get a heart
container. Go back and through the west door. Here you will find three 
bouncy guys. Hit them into the pit and open the chests. Grab the moon pearl
and go east and into the northeast door. Walk into the upper corner and 
the moon pearl will activate a portal. In this area, there are five black 
switches and a slingshot. Grab the slingshot and hit the 1st, 3rd, and 5th 
switches. This will clear a path above to get to the northeast door.
Get the magic hammer back and go back through the portal. Head east, pound
the stakes and go through the north door. Here you have to battle some
stalfos knights. Fall into the black water and you will end up in the
alternate side of the room. Destroy the guards and go back up. Fall to the
west side and hit the skull and anything else that lives. When all the 
enemies are destroyed, grab the key from the chest, fall down and unlock the 
block. Go back up and west through the door. 

There are two room right above you. Head into the left one and grab the bow.
Hit the switch on the other side that is behind the pot with a charged arrow.
There's another one south of the Force Gems, so hit it. When you have hit all
the ones you can, go into the left room and grab the Pegasus Boots. Head 
into the right room and push the blocks in a way where you can dash into the
cracked block. Grab the boomerang and go back out. Try your best to 
diagonally throw the boomerang and hit the last switch, which will activate
the bridge. Go south, break the four pots and step on the the switches. Now 
take the key out of the chest and go north, then west, unlocking the door.

Hit the orb so the blue pegs are down. Go east and grab the lamp from the
left weapon room. Now go south where you fought the ball and chain, then
go west. Now you can climb the stairs and go west. Go down the steps and 
light all the torches. A large hole will open up in the middle. Fall down
in it and go to each corner of the dark room. One of the chests has a small
key in it. Pick it up and exit in the southwest corner. Go out the way you
came in and head for the four way bridge. From there, go west and you'll
see four blocks. Get into a box formation and push the fourth block to the
right up, and this will make the north door open. Also, hit the orb so it 
turns red on the way out to the north. Here you have to fight some pretty
annoying Wizzrobes on moving walkways. Do your best to kill them before
they rob you blind. When you are done, go west and make your way through red
and blue orb maze, lighting torches along the way. When all the torches are
lit, the path in the northeast is opened. 

In this room, you should see four pots of oil on the left wall. Have the
Links pick up all four pots and line up vertically. Do not break the pots.
When all four have a pot in their hands, line up vertically and push 
against the left wall where the pots where. This will make the room shake
and eventually a part of the wall will crumble. With the pots still in hand,
line up horizontally and push against the wall where there are four shaded
tiles. Another part of the room will crumble, allowing you to move east. 
Open the chest on the way to get the moon pearl. Use this to open the 
portal on the southwest corner of the room. There's nothing but Force Gems
down there. When you're ready, exit to the left. 

This room is filled with those blue bouncy guys. Knock them into the pit
or blow them up to gain access to the north exit and the boss.

                     --- BOSS BATTLE: Phantom Ganon ---

It looks like Phantom Ganon is back for another crack at you. With all the 
talk about Ganon from the Deku Scrubs, you knew the boss had something to
do with him. Anyway, do what you did last time and don't even worry about
his clones, the balls they shoot just break apart when they hit the sword.
Concentrate on The green balls and line up horizontally to get a better aim.
When he is defeated, so north and save the maiden. Level 5 is complete!

                      === Stage 1: Desert of Doubt ===    


Go north into the Gerduo vilage and talk to the people in the tents. Talk
to the lady in the northeast tent and she will give you permission to pass
the gate. Tell the girl at the gate and she will open it for you, letting you
go north. Push the large yellow stone right that is in front of a little
pryamid that has a doorway. Go inside and you will be in a side-scrolling
area with quick sand. Go right and you will notice some Pegasus Boots. Let
the quicksand take you down just enough to get under the rock and on the
other side of the boots. Go up the ladder and grab the boots and dash through
the bricks on the right and open the chest. Now head up to the surface.

Head right and dash through the enemy in the circle of quicksand and go into 
the cave. Here you see a bunch of rows with brocken blocks in front of them. 
Dash through the blocks and on the other side is three chests, one 
containing the Moon Pearl. Take the Moon Pearl outside and to the right
of the cave to open a portal. Now destroy all the mummies in that area and
they turn into Stalfos that go to the other side of the portal. When all the
mummies and Stalfos are dead, the bones blocking the path disappear.

Head north from where the other portal is and you will see four Shadow Links.
Avoid their Flame Rods and go to the northwest cave. Push the colored blocks
to get to the large floor switch. Step on it and a few enemies appear. Defeat
them and three doorways open up. Go through the center one and give the Great
Fairy your Pegasus Boots. Now with the Lvl. 2 Boots, head east of where the
Shadow Links were. Pick up the large stone and use the boots to run over
the sand pit going north. Now you should be in the Zulu village. Do some
exploring and head west. Jump down from the little opening on the north 
ledge and walk west. You will probably fall down a pit. Inside the pit
you will notice small sand circles. That shows you the location of the pits
above you. Use your Pegasus Boots to run across the pits and get to the tree.
Near the tree is a whirlpool. Go into it and you are taken to the west side 
of the area. Make your way through the catus maze and go into the north cave.
Inside is a large switch that gives you a giant blue Force Gem. Head south 
and you will see some vultures and a staircase. Fall dwon the pits to see 
where you need to walk. Go west and you will fall down a large pit. Next
time you walk over it, line up vertically and walk slow across the pit
door, lift up the coconuts and go west.

Have each Link stand on the four switches on the four corners of the large
sand pit. When they are all stepped on, the pit will go away and a 
staircase will appear. Take the bomb from the south wall and throw it at
the middle of the north wall to create a cave entrance. In here is a 
heart container. Head back out to where the three holes are. Now this one
had me for a while. Go down one of the holes and all you see is three 
ladders that all lead back to the same place. Well theres more to that 
quicksand on the bottom than you might think. Let Link get swallowed up and 
you will be taken to the bottom of the cave where you are spit out. 

Go up the left ladder and then the up the steps. Now head north and defeat
Shadow Link. When you are through with him, head north up the mountain.
Time to destroy another Stalfos Knight for the Red Jewel. Stage Complete!


                      === Stage 2: Desert Temple ===


Walk inside and pull the large Armos statue back to enter the north exit.
Head east past the Shadow Links and into a room with a large switch 
surrounded by large stones. Near these stones are four black switches.
Separate the Links so each one is standing near a switch, Now press select
and slash each switch as quickly as possible. When all four light up
at the same time, the stones around the switch will go away. Step on the
switch and the room fills with sand and Magic Hammers appear. Take the
hammer and go west. Destroy the enemies by slamming the hammer, flipping 
them over and slashing them. When they are all gone, charge the hammer
and pound the ground. You will notice some spots that have "humps". Hit the
"humps" with the hammer and something will fly out. A key should be one 
thing. Take the key to the locked block in the southwest corner and break 
the pot behind it. Step on the switch and the west door will open. 
Pull the large statues out of the way and go north. Here there are two
guards that will wake up and attack if you go near them. Get the right one
away from the wall level do you can pull it out. This will make stairs
appear, so go down them and grab the bow. Use the bow to shoot the guards 
eyes and the north door will open.

Explore the room if you want, but there's not much here. Head north and 
destroy the group of stautes. When that is done, the north door will open.
Before you go, step on all the switches and grab anything that comes up. 
One chest that appears contains the level 2 bow, Grab that and head north.
Get into a cross formation and shoot the switches with an arrow. Two 
chests will appear. Open them and get the Moon Pearl. Take the Moon Pearl
back to the room with the laser statues. On the right side of the middle
laser is a place where the Moon Stone will create a portal. Go into the
portal and get the key on the left side of the area. Go back up and use 
the key on the west door. In this room are two annoying Shadow Links
with magic hammers. When they leave, light the two north torches with the
arrows and defeat the two statues. Head north.

There are a group of red marching statues and a bunch of laser statues.
Your job is to light all the torches using the arrows. When all the 
torches are lit, a key will appear in the northeast corner. Grab the key
and unlock the west door. Now head south through the four doors and you
end up outside. Shoot arrows at the sand pit monsters and when they are
all gone, the rocks blocking the path in the west go away. Step on the 
large switch that the Shadow Links are standing by and an army of mud
monsters comes after you. Defeat them all and go north through the four 
doors. A giant one eyed bug is waiting for you here. Destroy him and go 
north. 

Destroy the four Shadow Links by going in and out of the portals. When they
are all gone, head north and destroy the barrier. Stage Complete!


                         === Stage 3: Pyramid ===


Head north into the Pyramid and pull the handles out of the wall to open 
the north door. Defeat the mummies and go into the now opened door. In 
this room, pull the left handles and the door will open. Smash the pots
and step on the switch to open the door. You will probably fall down the
large pit in front of the two chests. Get back up andopen the chests next 
to Shadow Link and grab the small key. Head north and unlock the door. 
Shadow Link is dropping bombs in this area, so make your way through the
hallways and doors until you get to the north door with 6 handles on the
wall. Pull the four mid handles and head north.

Go north and you'll see something sticking out of the wall. Push it in and 
the door next to it will open. Go inside and grab the sling shot.
Now head back and go north some more to see another block coming out of
the wall, push it in and go in the door. Here there is a small building to
the left and some enemies. Destroy them and doors on both side of the 
small building will open. Go inside, get into a cross formation and shoot
seeds at the two black switches on each side. This gives you a small key.

Take the small key to the east side of the long hallway and unlock the door. 
Inside is a pile of pots in the middle of statues. Break the pots and step
on the switches to make some mummies appear. Take them out and get the Moon 
Pearl out of the pot on the south side of the room. Carry the Moon Pearl
to the north part of the room and go down the portal. Defeat the stalfos
and grab a lamp. Go back to the large hallway and go to through the west door
where got the slingshot. Light the 4 torches that are infront of the door
next to the slingshot. Inside that room is a Great Fairy. Go to the south
part of the big hallway and light the torches next to the closed door.
The door will open and inside are Pegasus Boots. Take the boots to the
Great Fairy and she will give you the Lvl. 2 Boots. 

Now head for the northeast door in the big hallway. This rooms is covered
with large pits. The only way across is to run over them with the Pegasus
boots. If you fall, climb back up and try again. On the other side of the 
pits is a moon pearl. Leave the room and go left into the empty space in the
corner where a portal will appear. Go into the portal and run across the 
gaps until you get to the big floor switch. Step on the switch and go left
into the other portal. Go left and defeat the mummies and Shadow Link.
Then open all the chests. One chest has a big key. Use this to open the 
chest in the middle and collect 1000 Force Gems. Lucky you! The other
chests have force gems and some bombs. Keep the bombs and let the boots sit 
there. Blow the north wall to get out.

Go east and on the north wall are several cracks in the wall. Blow them 
away and go inside. Kill all the snakes and go into the north door. Grab
the slingshot, line up and hit the 5 switches. This will make boards come
out of the wall to make a path to the other door. Go in and shoot the 
switches from the other side and the boards will change position.
Now throw Link so he can get to the other side and regroup. Now head north
along the path, killing Moldorms along the way. 

                      --- BOSS BATTLE: Big Moldorm ---

This is sorta familiar... A giant Moldorm is the guy you got to beat.
This time, he has a multi colored tail. Hit the tail with the same color 
Link. Eventually he will split in two. Attack the tails some more until 
they are destroyed. Then it's off to save the last maiden. Level Complete!

                        === Stage 1: Frozen Hyrule ===


Head north to the frozen pond and destroy the turtle like enemies. Go to
the west side of the lake and pick up a stone to reveal a staircase. 
Grab the bomb near the staircase, rush down stairs and throw the bomb
at the cracked blocks before it blows. This will give you access to four
different weapons. Choose the arrows and head north. There are two large
snowballs rolling around. Go to the east and have a little war with some 
green soliders. Hide behind the stones when they fire and then shoot them 
with the arrows. When they are gone, you can head north or head back
to the place where you got your arrows and grab the bombs. It will
make things easier later on. 

Whatever you decide, head north of where you fought the soldiers and
continue on, past the house where Shadow Link is, go east. There will
be two small snowballs that will follow you. Just run away and go north.
Keep going north and a blizzard will start. That is not always a problem,
but when the wind is blowing hard, you do take damage, so keep that in
mind. Keep going down the path, going into hidden stairways along the way
until you get to a dead end at a rock wall. If you have the bombs, blow
up the middle of the rock wall. If not, cut down some bushes south of the
wall and there will be bombs inside the hole. Grab the bomb and RUN to the
wall and blow it up that way. When the cave entrance is blown, go in and
get the Flame Rod. Now you can melt all those frozen Force Gems and walls
of ice. Head back to where the two small snowballs were just sitting there
and melt them with the Flame Rod. One will give you a key. Use this key
to open the house left of here. Go down the stairs inside and you will end 
up on the west side of the area. Go left and open the chest that is 
surrounded by broken ice. If you fall in, get up and try again. Inside
the chest is a power bracelet. When you got that, go back to the house
and then to the giant rolling snowballs. 

Head west and until you get to a frozen pond. Step on the large floor switch
and an army of penquins comes after you. Hold down the Flame Rod and burn 
them all to ashes. When they are all dead, you get a moon pearl. Take
that to the four way junction and head north. Melt the ice wall and go north 
some more and the portal should appear. Go in the portal and go up. Pull
the four handles out of the wall and this will lower the spikes up above.

The giant cliff north of here has many bombable spots. Notice the small
differences in the bottom of the cliff. When you see the small difference
in the formation on the bottom of the cliff, throw a bomb there. This may
sound confusing, but you will see what I mean. When all six caves are
opened, go inside each of them and pull the handle. Something will happen
for each one. After you are done, walk up the ladders that appeared when you
pulled one of the handles. At the top, jump down into the middle and head 
north. Here you need to take care of another multicolored crab. Hit each
claw with the same colored Link and presto, he's dead!

Now it's time to get the last jewel. Defeat the blue guards and then the 
Stalfos Knight. When you are done, destroy the barrier and complete the 
stage.


 		     === Stage 2: The Ice Temple ===


When inside, destroy the pots and get into a cross formation. Step on the
switches and a chest appears. Grab the key out of it and open the north door.
Let the Shadow Links run into the wall and slashe them. Grab the Force Gems 
and go into the left room. Pull the large handle out of the wall, then go
into the right room. Grab the boomerang and go north through the middle
room. Go north and cross the icy path. If you fall, get up and try again.
In the next room, there are two Wizzrobes. Defeat them and the east and west
doors open. Go east and you will see a big platform in the middle of the
room. There are little skull logos on some of the tiles. Throw bombs
onto the platform and destroy the skull tiles. This will make a Flame Rod
appear. Get the Flame Rod and go east. Along your way, melt any ice
chunks that get in your way. Soon you find yourself in a room of bouncing 
mice. This room made me curse a little. Try your best to avoid the mice and
the bouncy blocks. Melt the ice in this room to find four, star shaped 
switches. Get all four Links on a switch and the west door will open.

Melt all the ice blocks on the south path and open the chest with the small
key. Head north and unlock the door, leading to a Shadow Link battle.
Defeat the Shadow Links and the north door will open. Cross the round 
platform and get on the moving wooden platform. Go north and you will be
in a cross shaped room. Go west, light the torches and go through that door.
Keep going west into the next room. Push the different colored blocks so 
they land on all the switches. Then break all the pots and stand on the 
other switches. This will make the upper east door open up and a chest appear
in the middle. Open the chest, get the Force Gems and go through that 
other door. Go down the steps and give the great Fairy the Flame Rod.
This will get you the Lvl. 2 version that can make blocks and platforms.
Get back upstairs and use the rod on the question mark block. This will
make a platform that takes you to the exit. Get back to the cross shaped
room, light the east torches and go through the just opened door.

Throw the bomb on the ice to get them near the black switches. When each
one has been hit, some chests appear. Grab the key you get and go east. 
Unlock the north door and you are in a room filled with question mark
blocks. get to the west door and inside are four torches. Get in a cross
formation and us the Rod to light all four. This might take a few tries.
Open up the chests that appear and go east. Go through the opposite door
and you'll find a room with a lot of pots. Destroy the pots and step on 
the switches (throw Link if needed) to get a chest with a small key.
Now unlock the north door in the question mark room. 

This next room has you destroy an army of soldiers. Now head north upstairs
where you have to destroy the pots and step on some switches. Instead
of stepping on them though, you need to put blocks on some using your rod
becuase there are more than 4 switches. When all 5 are either under Link
or under a Rod block, a Roc's Feather will appear. Grab the feather and go
north. Defeat the ball and chains, Head north and a cutscene will start. 
Stage Complete!

			
		     === Stage 3: Tower of Winds ===


                            --- Sidenote ---

  Because of all the doorways in and out of the main tower, It's 
  hard to explain this place in the best way. I apologize in
  advance if things get confusing. E-mail me if you get confused and I 
  will gladly help you.


There is alot of side-scrolling in this stage. Defeat the blobs and then 
go up the ladder to the next level Go into the left door and get the 
slingshot, then go to the top door in the middle. In here is a large switch.
Stand on it and four Stalfos appear. Defeat them and go left. Step on
the switch under the pot and a hole will appear south of you. Go down the
hole and open the chest to get a key. Take the key back up to where you
stood on the switch and go right. Go up those stairs and unlock the south
door. Get on the platform in a horizontal line and shoot the black switches 
with the slingshot. This will make ladders appear in the tower. Climb the
right ladder and go into through the door. In here are four colored blocks,
so have each Link push their block. A little platform appears. Have one 
Link pick up another and get on the platform. Throw the Link onto the switch
and a bridge will appear. Cross it and grab Roc's Feather. Now head back to 
the tower. 

Go down a level and jump over to the left. Climb up the leftladder and grab 
the Flame Rod. Now go back to where the colored blocks were and go up the 
stairs. Go through the north door and you end up in the tower.
Melt the ice blocks in your way and go through the next door. You should see
some stairs and a door way to the south. Go in that door and four Force Gem
guards are there. Defeat them for thr Force Gems and go up the stairs.

When you get to the Thwomps, there will be two doorways on the right side. 
Go into the lower one to get a blue braclet and a heart container. Then 
step on the four switches next to each Thwomp and a key will appear. Take
that key into the top doorway and unlock the south door. In the next you'll 
find a large switch. Stand on it and enemies will appear. Defeat them and go
west. Get into a cross formation and hit the four black orbs. This will
create a ladder above the Twomps. Climb up that ladder and go right down the 
path where the sharp ice falls. Follow that path until you get to a ladder 
near a doorway. Go into the door and step on the big switch. Four Force Gem
guards will appear. Defeat them and go east to get the Flame Rod.

Now climb the ladder near the doorway and go east. Melt the large frog 
looking ice sculpture and climb the ladder. Melt the ice blocks and go into 
the doorway. Step on the four switches and go into the west door.
Grab Roc's Feather and go through the LEFT, north door(work with me).
Now climb the ladder that is near the bomb mice hole and go through the 
nearest doorway. In here you should see some platforms you need to jump
on and get to the other side. Hit all the black orbs and a doorway will 
appear in the tower. Go through that doorway. In this room are six
black orbs, but you only want to hit 4 of them. Get into a cross formation 
and hit the four on the right. This will open the east door that leads to a 
heart container. Now head north of the switches and up the ladder. 

This takes you to some flying enemies. Kill them and a pile of blue blobs 
fall from the ceiling. Destroy all of them and climb up the steps to get to 
the to the north (or ceiling). In the next level of the tower are five
rooms in a neat order: northwest, northeast, southwest, southeast, middle.

There's nothing but pots in all the rooms but the southeast room. There are
Flame Rods in there. Grab a Flame rod and melt the ice around the middle
door. This will take you to four black orbs. Hit them with a cross formation
and a ladder in the tower will appear. On the other side of that ladder is
one scary looking boss.

                      --- BOSS BATTLE: Frostare ---

This one is no pushover. Melt the ice on the right side of the room and 
go into the doorway. Grab Roc's Feather and go back out and jump into
the second doorway above the first one. Break the pots and stand on the
switches to make two platforms appear under the boss. Use these to jump 
to other side and to the second door on the left. Climb the ladder inside
and you will see a red creature. Defeat him and the giant eye will come out
of the ceiling and start flying. Stab that eye as much as possible and
he will fall. When he is stunned on the ground, slash as fast as you
can at the eye. Keep knocking him out of the air and hitting the eye
and he will soon end up in a pile of smoke. Head up the ladder and
save Princess Zelda! Level Complete!

                    === Stage 1: Realm of the Heavens ===


Go east past the flame statues and defeat the guards. This will cause the 
flames from the statues south of you to go away. Head south and defeat the
guards. In the whirlpools are some chests. Open them and head back up.
Now go north, defeat the team of guards and keep going north. Go down
each of the whirlpools and grab anything you want. Now go into the east
whirlpool and go up. It looks like the others, but behind the portal are
four switches. Hit them in a cross formation and some guards on top of
the cloud will appear. Defeat the guards and a chest with a moon pearl
will appear. Grab the Monn Pearl and take it south to the other whirlpool
area. Go in the northeast corner and a portal will appear. Grab Roc's
Feather and get out. Now go north and jump over the gap and head east.

Here you should see two laser statues. Jump across the clouds and go east.
Now you will see a Fire Ball and Chain. Use the jump and stab move to kill
him. When he's gone, it rains Force Gems. Grab them and go south. Defeat
the multi-colored crab and get some more Force Gems. Now go north two 
screens. Do your best to stay on the path while the wind is blowing.
Hit the black switches to get stop the wind for a bit. Go down the whirlwind
at the end of the path and you are in another small room. Go up and behind
the portal exit are Magic Hammers. Grab one and go back to where you fought
the color crab. Pound the ground with charged up swings and you will see
bumps in the ground. Hit these bumps with more charged swings and a key will
eventually fly out. Take the key north one screen and unlock the block to 
the right. Kill the three guards that are hanging out on clouds and the
passage east is opened. 

There is a multi-colored bridge here that keeps changing. If a Link gets on
a part of the bridge that isn't his color, he is going to fall and keep 
falling. When you are on the other side, defeat the Tektites and go east.
Traverse the colored bridges and get Link to stand on the four different 
switches. Pegasus Boots will appear in the middle of the area. Grab them 
and go north. This will take you to another color bridge, but you have to use
the boots to get across fast enough. When you get across, go east. Get on
the button controlled platform and make your way to the southeast corner of 
the area, avoiding the flame streams along the way. Hit the switch here and
bombs will appear. Grab the bombs and go east.

Some Dodongos, not that bad. Toss some bombs down their throat and it's
all done with. See, some chests appear along with that Zelda good job music.
Oh wait, whats that boss music for? I thought I was done. Must be for that 
giant blue Dodomgo that just appeared. Grab the Lvl. 2 Bombs out of one of 
the chests that appeared. Just like the small guys, toss some bombs down 
it's throat. After three gulps, this baddie is done, and so are you.
Go east and destroy the Vaati barrier. Stage Complete!


                       === Stage 2: The Dark Cloud ===


Go east and destroy the Vultures. When they are dead, a platform will appear.
Take it east and go through the doorway. When you blast up out of the 
cannon, to a stab attack on the cracked blocks to your right. This gives you
access to the door. Go inside and grab the bow. Then step on all 4 switches
under the pots. This will make a cloud platform that takes you east.
Over here is a fun little mini-game. Shoot the four orbs with an arrow on
the moving platform. You get a bunch of Force Gems and another platform 
going east as a prize. Now there are a bunch of doorways. Just keep going 
right without climbing a ladder. In between two doorways outside is an orb.
Charge your arrow and shoot it and a bridge between two higher doors will 
appear. Keep going right and you will see a room filled with pots. Above 
these pots are some bombs. Grab the bombs and go west. Climb the laddder 
and blow the blocks until you get to the top. When the blocks are gone, go
back and get your bow. Shoot the orb on the the left side of the area and
a large wooden bridge will appear to take you up to the next area. Before
you leave, get the bombs back.

Shadow Link is back again, and he's playing with the giant bombs. Go into the
doorways to avoid the blasts. Inside the small rooms are switches that make
cannons appear. Use the cannons to get to the right side of Shadow Link.
Hit the switch thats under the pot in the right doorway under Shadow Link.
Blow up any blocks in your way and when you should be above Shadow Link.
Go west and step on all the switches under the pots. A big metal ladder
will appear. Climb it and go into the beam of light. This takes you up to a
new area. Head north and step on the large floor switch. An army of blue 
bouncy guys appears. Blow them up or knock them out and a chest will appear.
Grab the Moon Pearl from the chest and go south. A portal will appear, so go
down and find the eight black switches. In a cross formation, hit the left
four and Magic Hammers appear above. Hit the right four and Stalfos will 
appear. Get the Hammers and go north.

Hit the red mole guys in your way and go up and down the stairs until you
get to the other side. Now you have two choices, go east or north. East
takes you to a field of hidden spikes. Hit the floor with your hammer to see 
where the spikes are and try to hit the black orbs along the way. This
will make a path with Force Gems on them. It's a pretty big area, so 
have fun. 

I suggest going north, this is where you got to go anyway. You will see some
statues with electricity going through them. Go east from here and walk 
along the windy path. At the end of the path are some Slingshots. Grab these 
and go back to stautes. Get on a Tetris looking platform and shoot the black 
orbs along the way. Go north, then west a screen. defeat the gray guards and
open all the chests. Some have Force Gems, others have giant bombs. The one
you want is the Moon Pearl. Take that and go east. Hit the orbs so it creates 
a path across. You don't have to hit them all. Carry the M.P. across and go 
east. Go down and a portal will appear. Go inside, out of the other one 
and go north. Defeat the two units of guards and collect the Force Gems.

Head north and go down the left staircase. Grab the lamp, go up, and light
the two torches in the middle. Then go down the right staircase and grab
the bow. Use this to light the rest of the torches and a path will appear.
Grab some hearts from the pots and go north.

Battle the Shadow Link. As you fight, notice how they just keep coming back.
Well, some comes to take care of that. Now defeat the rest of them and head 
north. Time for the final level. Stage Complete!


                     === Stage 3: Palace of Winds ===


Jump down off the ledge and head north. Here you will see a large floor
switch. Step on it and enemies will appear. Beat all the enemies and head 
north. I'm going to do this area in four separate section so we don't get
confused. There are four Moon Pearls you have to obtain. There is one in each
of the rooms to your northwest, northeast, southwest and southeast. Pull the 
handle out of the wall in the northeast corner and four different weapons 
appear. Grab the bow and head through the northwest door.

Northwest Room:
Head down the staircase on the left. Fall off the right side of the ladder 
and you will see an orb in the wall at the bottom.
Climb up the ladder again and this time charge up your arrow. Now fall and
shoot the orb on the way down. This may take a few tries. When you hit it, a
bridge will appear above you. Go right across the bridge and you will see
an orb in the ceiling above a hole. Charge your arrow so it is pointing up
and fall down the hole. Shoot the orb before you get to the bottom and climb
up the ladder. Now shoot an arrow through the spaces in the ceiling. This
will hit the orbs on the floor above you. When the orbs are hit, the north 
door will open. Go through that door and a maze of spikes appear. You want
to shoot an arrow at the orbs in the room, but have to do it from far away 
because if you get close, spikes get in the way. When all four are lit, 
the spikes surrounding the chests and grab the Moon Pearl from one of them.
Take the Moon Pearl to one of the shining spots in the main room and create
a portal. 

Southwest Room:
Grab the boomerang and go into the southwest room. Throw the boomerang at
the black orb on the small platform. Now go to the northwest room and throw 
the boomerang through the wall and hit the other orb in the southwest room.
This will create a bridge for you to walk on. Go back to the southwest room, 
cross the bridge and go into the door on the west side. Push the two blocks
on both sides of the door right and a portal will appear. Have one Link go 
into the portal and then look at his shadow on the TV. Using "Shadow Link",
pick up a Link that is on the TV and throw him on the switch in the middle
next to the statues. This creates a small bridge for you to walk on.
Push the statue out of the way and throw a boomerang at the black orb.
Now go through the now open door and open the chests. Inside is a small key
and a moon pearl. Take the M.P. back to the main room and make another portal. 
Unlock the northeast door but don't go in yet. Grab the Magic Hammer and head
into the southeast room.

Southeast Room:
Use the Magic Hammer to tell where the spikes are in the floor. Smash in all 
four red mole guys and go into the south door. Here you see nine more red 
moles. There are also pots on the right of them. Hit all the moles so the 
ones sticking up are in the same position as the pots. This will make some
blocks in the south part of the room go away. Walk into the hidden room
in the southwest part of the room and make your way through the block maze
until you get the Moon Pearl. Take the Moon Pearl to the main room and make
another portal. Now grab the Pegasus Boots and go into the northeast room.

Northeast Room:
There is a crack in the north wall near the door. Grab the bomb that is near
the door in the main room and throw it at the crack. This will make a hole
that leads to the Great Fairy. Give her the Pegasus Boots and get the Lvl. 2
boots. Use these to cross the gap on the right sode of the room and step on 
the switch. Now go through the north door and down the steps. Use your 
Pegasus Boots to run through the air and climb the ladder to the other side.
Once again, use the Pegasus boots to run in the air and get to the ladder
on the other side. When you get to the other side, run from platform to
platform, avoiding the fast moving metal blocks. On the right side of the 
room are two chests. Open them and get the Moon Pearl. Move the blocks out
of the way and take the Moon Pearl to the main room. Activate the last 
portal.

Now that all four portals have been activated, have each Link go into a
portal and step on their switch. This will open the north door in the main 
room. In the next room you will see two cyclops and bouncy barriers. Do
your best to stay on the platform and defeat the Cyclops. Now use the key
they drop and unlock the north door. Grab the bow from the main room and
go north to where the three one eyed bugs are. Shoot their eyes to defeat 
them. Get the magic hammer, take it to the Great Fairy and upgrade it.
Now go back to the room you were fighting the bugs and go through the east 
door. Pound the large metal square and you will fall into a pit. 

Climb back up the ladder and leave. Get the Pegasus Boots. Take them to the 
Great Fairy and get the Lvl. 2 Boots. Now go back to that pit and use the 
boots to run through the air like you did before to get to the two cracked
blocks. Fall from the ledge above the blocks and hold out your sword.
Aim for the blocks on the way down and you will crash throgh them. Open the
chests and grab the small key. Head back up and unlock the door on the left 
side of the room, west of here. In this room, you will see some broken blocks.
Dash into them and step on the large switch in the north part of the room.
This will open the door on the north wall across the large gap. Run across
the gap and enter the room. 

                        --- BOSS BATTLE: Vaati ---

At long last, Vaati. If you played Four Swords for GBA, you know what to 
do at first. Throw bombs into his tornado so that they go off when they 
reach the top. Throw them in too early and they will fall down and blow 
up on you. When enough bombs hit him, he will begin shooting purple 
balls at you. Jump down the middle hole and you will land in a cannon.
Launch up when Vaati is near the hole and do a jumping stab on him. He 
will then transport to the bottom where the ladders are. Just hit him 
with the sword until he goes back up. Keep doing the cannon method 
until he is no more.

Now that he's gone, he decides to pull a Ganondorf and destroy the place
around you. Zelda is here too, making things much like they were in 
Ocarina of Time. Escort Zelda out of the Tower, destroying enemies along
the way. Zelda does have health, so don't let her get hurt. Also, make sure
she is with you before you climb down a ladder. 

When you get to the end, Zelda will feel something. The floor beneath you
crumbles and you fall into a pit. Waiting down their is a cloud of blue
smoke. Vaati? Nope, Ganon. He's back, but let's not let him stay long.

                       --- BOSS BATTLE: Ganon ---

Get into a box formation and hit him at his sides when he is not moving.
Then he will use his trident to warp you underground. Defeat the Stalfos
and you are warped back up. Keep hitting his sides and defeating the Stalfos
and part two of the battle starts. Zelda will create a ball of light and 
Ganon will turn orange. Wait for him to shoot green balls from his trident.
Hit the balls at him and away from Zelda. If Zelda gets hit, she takes 
damage. Hit Ganon with enough green balls and he will become stunned.
Zelda will then let the ball of light float around him. Shoot the ball of
light with a charged arrow and Ganon will say good night. Enjoy the cutscene
at the end. Congratulations! Game Complete!

VII. FAQ
==========================================

Q: Do you need a GameBoy Advance to play?

A: No. But without one for you or some friends, you can only play by yourself 
   in Hyrulean Adventure.

Q: What kind of graphics does it have?

A: It uses sprites from A Link to the Past and Four Swords on GBA, but 60% of 
   it is original 2-D sprites and graphics, with alot of GameCube powered    
   special effects like puffs of smoke from bombs and enemies, shadows on 
   the ground from clouds in the sky, cutscenes, etc. 

Q: In Stage __, you said to _______. But I can't find _______. Where is it?

A: I bet you a $100 that you are playing multiplayer. My walkthrough
   is based on single player. If you have questions about multiplayer, e-mail
   me and I will do my best to help.

Q: I am having a problem with Zelda: _________. Can you help me?

A: Yes, I have played every Zelda game and do know alot about the series.
   There are people that play Zelda more than I do and might know
   more about it, but I have to admit, I am a Zelda addict. I do not have
   every dungeon map written to memory, but ask me a question and see
   if I know the answer. You can also read the other well done walkthroughs
   about Zelda games on GameFaqs for answers. I have used them myself. 


==============================
VIII. Closing Comments
==============================

Well, I liked this game enough to write a FAQ about it. I have to say, this
wasn't the best Zelda game yet, but it was very enjoyable. I think it will
pull in a few more Zelda fans that like multiplayer games. But for those of
us that like those grand adventures like Ocarina of Time and The Wind Waker,
you won't get that here. 

If you liked this game and don't have A Link to the Past/ Four Swords for 
GBA, get it. It will have more of the same stuff you liked in this game.
