TIMELINE [0002]
Most popularly believed to take place directly after A Link to the Past.

STORYLINE [0003]
After months of travel and journey, Link sails back to his homeland
Hyrule breathing a deep sigh of relief. Our young champion is exhausted
although his worst was yet to come. At first, it started a small drizzle,
barely  something you'd call a storm. However, as the day slowly turns to
night, the diminutive drizzle immediately transforms into a raging storm.
While Link frantically tries to bring down the mast and hold his boat
together, a stray bolt of lightning strikes directly in the hub of our hero's
ship. Link's boat, although sturdy and quite durable, was utterly no match
for the raging bolt that effortlessly reduces it to splinters. Has Link's
crisis ended him forever?

Washed up on the sandy beach of an uncharted island, Link lies
unconscious and quite wounded. A young girl walks slowly, but excitedly
towards Link.  Finally getting the courage to investigate, the young maiden
takes him for healing and reviving. Back at her dwelling, Link awakens seeing
Zelda stationed right above him? But no, the young girl goes by the name
Marin. "What's going on?" Link wonders. Little does Link know that his plight
is far from over. As Link gets out of bed, he figures he must retrieve his
belongings and sort things out. That however, may prove a bit difficult.

COMMENTS [0004]
Link's Awakening, despite being the Game Boy successor of a console
game, became a classic in its own right.  LA, along with having its own
unique story and musical charm, invented a few Zelda components that have
become standards since its release.  The first invention was the addition of
a trading sequence, a feature seen many times after LA.  Second, LA was the
first to have a fishing minigame, now accepted to be Link's favorite pastime.
Third, LA introduced the Ocarina!  Though there was a Flute in the original
LoZ, you could only play one tune on it.  Now the musical instrument is given
more prominence.  Also, this is the first Zelda game where Link gets a female
admirer besides Zelda, in this case Marin.

On one hand, LA is not as epic as ALttP; Link can only have 14 hearts,
for one, and there are only eight total dungeons.  On the other hand, LA is
more challenging than ALttP when it comes to completing the game 100%; Link
must hunt down 20 Secret Seashells, collect 12 Heart Pieces, and finish the
trading sequence.  You can find most of the Secret Seashells after the second
dungeon actually, when the Shovel becomes available; most of the Seashells
have to be dug up.  There are actually 25 Secret Seashells in all, but you
only have to collect 20 to get the Master Sword; I included the Seashells that
let you get the Master Sword the soonest.  Search under bushes, under rocks,
and under the dirt for the seashells.  Keep checking the map to see what area
you are at and where you need to go according to the walkthrough.	Like in LoZ,
money takes on a new importance in LA; you have to do serious saving up to
purchase all the necessary items.  If you want to do a little cheating, you
can steal items from the shop in Mabe Village by walking around the store
owner until he's facing the wrong way, then quickly exiting.  Keep in mind
that if you do this, everyone will start calling you thief; and if you try
to enter the shop again, the store owner will kill you!

Despite LA's small appearance, the map contains many tricky areas that
contain hard-to-solve puzzles.  While they may not be as difficult as in the
future Oracle of Ages/Seasons games, they still present a surprising
challenge.  The dungeons kick up the difficulty at the sixth dungeon.  Eagle's
Tower, in particular, is a challenge where you must find and destroy four
pillars to reach the dungeon's boss.  Once you get Manbo's Mambo for the
Ocarina, remember you can use it to warp to the beginning of the dungeons so
you don't get lost.  Note that for the most part, the dungeons in this game
are single-floored, like in the original Legend of Zelda.  There's the
compass, map, and boss key, which have become standards.  In this game, there
is also the stone beak; this item is useless because it just gives access to
hints from owl statues.  Therefore, those items will be ignored.

Long-distance travel around Koholint can be somewhat difficult.  The
Manbo's Mambo can only be used to warp to one place, the pond near the
Mysterious Forest.  Otherwise, you have to use warps to get around: There are
warps just east of Mabe Village, directly south of Animal Village, below the
Angler's Tunnel, and outside the eighth dungeon.  You need only see the warps
once to be able to use them.	The DX version of Link's Awakening added a few
nifty features to the original.  In that game, there is an additional
collecting quest, this time in completing a photo album (most of the photos
are gotten when you join up with Marin).  There is also a completely new
Color Dungeon that can be accessed after completing the third dungeon, in
which Link gains as a prize either the Red Suit for increased offense or the
Blue suit for increased defense.

1. Tail Cave [0102]
Get Roc's Feather
Defeat Moldorm
Get Full Moon Cello and Heart
Dungeon notes: To get to Tail Cave, the first dungeon, go south twice from
the Mabe Village well, then go east three times.  Go around to the
southwest, south, then east, and use the Tail Key on the keyhole to open up
the dungeon.  Link's first dungeon romp is rather tame- there aren't any
really threatening enemies or traps to worry about.  Find the map and
compass as soon as possible; the map gives an easy layout of the dungeon
and the compass gives the location of the boss (and the treasure chests, in
the DX version).  The Roc's Cape gives Link the ability to jump
across about two tiles of space.  To beat the Mini-Nightmare right before
the boss, jump over the spiked roller and slash the monster with your sword.
When battling Moldorm, don't fall off the side or you'll have to climb back
up and restart the battle!  Just aim at the tail with your sword and swing
away until it's dead.
To the compass:
- Go west once, knock the enemies into the pits, and get the key.
- Go west and get the compass from the chest.
To the map:
- From the entrance, go north, hit the switch, and get the key from the chest.

Before Dungeon 2 [0103]

When you get back to Mabe Village, you find out that Bow-wow the chaindog has
been kidnapped by Moblins.  Go north and back through the Mysterious Forest.

Bow-wow from the post.

2. Bottle Grotto [0104]
Get L-1 Power Bracelet
Defeat Genie
Get Conch Horn and Heart
Dungeon notes: From the Moblin hideout, go back into the forest to the west.
Go west three times, across the pit.  Go north, then east along the southern
path until you get to the swamp area.  Get to the dungeon entrance in the
northeast corner, letting Bow-wow eat the plants as you go on.  Bottle
Grotto is a mysterious dungeon, filled with pots, dark rooms where the Magic
Powder comes in handy, and surprise traps.  You can't even dispose of the
pots, however, until you get the L-1 Power Bracelet.  With this item, Link
can lift any number of small pots and boulders, and reach many areas thatwere
blocked before.  The Mini-Nightmare Hinox is a simple hack-and-slash
affair.  The Nightmare, Genie, however, is somewhat tricker: Avoid its
fireballs, slash at its 'lamp' when it lunges at you, and throw the lamp at
the wall several times to make it leave its lamp.  Then, just whack it with
your sword until it dies.
To the compass:
- Go north, light the torches with Magic Powder, and go east.

  Nightmare's Key.

3. Key Cavern [0106]
Get Pegasus Boots
Defeat Slime Eye
Get Sea Lily's Bell and Heart
Dungeon notes: The Key Cavern is one of the easiest dungeons to get lost in,
simply because there are an overwhelming number of keys in it.  Fortunately,
it is impossible to get trapped- there is always a key that leads to the next
room, no exceptions.  Finding those keys usually just requires defeating all
the enemies in a single room; make sure you try that whenever you are stuck.
The Pegasus Boots you get inside can propel Link forward faster, usually to
ram into objects, or to increase his jumping distance.  The Dodongos are the
Mini-Nightmares in this dungeon: As in the first Zelda game, they are easily
defeated by making them swallow a few bombs.  To defeat the Slime Eye boss,
first run into the wall to knock it down, then ram it with the Pegasus Boots
until it splits into two eyes.  Then, ram-attack or spin attack the two
eyeballs while jumping to avoid getting stunned, until they are dead.

Exit the cave, then go east.  Give the Stick to Tarin and you'll get the

Secret Seashell that pops out.

front of the small house, and enter.  Step into the bed to enter a dream

then past the green block to the west.  Go up the steps and get the Ocarina
from the chest.

4. Angler's Tunnel [0108]
Get Flippers
Defeat Angler Fish
Get Surf Harp and Heart
Dungeon: From underneath where Papahl is, go east twice, and drop down the
gap to enter the fourth dungeon below.  This game's water dungeon isn't too
bad- The dungeon map and compass are easily accessible at the beginning, and
the path through the dungeon is fairly linear.  There are many possible
sequence breaks in this dungeon, involving the crossways pit early on in the
dungeon, but this guide follows the normal path through, no special tricks
required.  With the Flippers, Link can now swim in deep water!  He will use
that ability in this dungeon to reach the end rooms, and to reach the last few
dungeons.  The Mini-Nightmare is an easy cueball-shaped enemy that dies after
a few sword swipes.  The Angler Fish boss is fairly easy as well; strike its
ball overhanging from its head with your sword and avoid its lunges.

get the Master Sword, the strongest sword in the game!
- Get Heart Piece #9 (Kanalet Castle)
From the Seashell Shrine, go south, west, and north twice to the castle
entrance.  Now go east twice and jump into the right side of the moat.  Swim

side of the bridge.  On the screen west of the bridge, dive underwater along
the coast to find the Heart Piece.

Go to the northeast part of Animal Village and enter the left-hand house.
Give the Hibiscus to the creature inside to get the Letter in return.

5. Catfish's Maw [0110]
Get Hookshot
Defeat Slime Eel
Get Wind Marimba and Heart
Dungeon notes: To get to dungeon five, just swim one screen south from the
mermaid in Martha's Bay.  Dive into the secret tunnel to the southwest of
the entrance, and go through to enter the Catfish's Maw.  This dungeon is
a slimy and slippery place, and its principle item is the hookshot.  The
hookshot attaches to an object across a long distance, and propells Link over
that gap to the item.  Using it, he can reach many-many platforms and areas
that were out of reach before.  The hookshot also doubles as a weapon- in
this game, it can serve as an alternate to the regular sword, especially in
this dungeon.  The Mini-Nightmare in this dungeon is a Stalfo that follows
you around constantly, and you will have to fight it four times in four
different rooms before you can defeat it.  Each time, just spin attack it
with your sword, then lay a bomb on it to hurt it.  To kill the evil Slime
Eel boss, hookshot the eel heads that poke out of the walls while avoiding
the spiked ball in the center.  If you pull out the real Slime Eel, it will
have a beating heart; slash the heart with your sword until it is destroyed.

Face Key
1 Heart Piece (#10)

- Get Heart Piece #10 (Animal Village)
Leave Animal Village from the southwest exit, then go south, then east.  Go
north three times up the path along the side of the village here, then bomb
the cracked wall in the northeast corner.  Enter the cave, and bomb the north

anymore) for the Boomerang.  You can trade back any item you traded in at
any time.
- Learn "Song of Soul" (300 rupees) (Ukuku Prairie)
From the Ukuku Prairie teleport, go west once, then south three times,
across a large pit, to enter the sign maze.  You must look at all the signs
in the correct order- if you mess up, you must start again.  The first sign
is the middle one on the first screen.  Follow the signs exactly until you
reach the end- you will have to use the Hookshot to cross a gap at one point.
At the end, a secret tunnel opens up.  Enter it, and pay the creature 300
rupees to learn the final song for the Ocarina.

6. Face Shrine [0112]
Get L-2 Power Bracelet
Defeat Facade
Get Coral Triangle and Heart
Dungeon notes: Leave the ruins-statue area to the east and exit north.  Go
west, north, and west past all the stones.  Get into the water down the
south steps and swim south.  Touch the west statue and enter the hidden
tunnel.  On the other side, insert the Face Key into the keyhole and the
dungeon opens up.  The last three dungeons of this game are much longer and
more difficult than any dungeon you've faced so far: The puzzles get trickier,
and enemies more threatening.  The Face Shrine is basically divided into two
halves, with the left-hand side being the one to clear first.  The L-2 Power
Bracelet is a simple upgrade of your old Power Bracelet, and with it Link
can lift up much heavier objects than before.  To defeat the annoying
Wizzrobe enemies, hit them with arrows or a single bomb.  Midway through the
dungeon, you will face the Mini-Nightmare.  Avoid the huge ball it throws at
you, then pick it up and slam the creature with the ball yourself.  The
Nightmare, Facade, is very easy to defeat; just avoid the items thrown around
the room and lay bombs on his face until he is destroyed.

tunnel.  Enter it, and play the Song of Soul in front of the rooster
remains to make it come alive.  Pick up the rooster at any time to fly around
with it.

the steps, then west twice.  Enter the cave near the Cuckoo house, go west,

then go west to get the Bird Key.  Drop down a hole back to the outside

7. Eagle's Tower [0114]
Get Mirror Shield
Defeat Evil Eagle
Get Organ of Evening Calm and Heart
Dungeon notes: From the cave with the Bird Key, drop down a hole back to the
outside, then go east three times and into another cave.  Go out the other
side and to the east.  You will go through a series of linear caves until you
reach the very top of the mountain; go west, insert the Bird Key and enter
Eagle's Tower.  The Eagle's Tower is a multi-layered dungeon powered by many
crystal switches and shifting enemies.  The object of the dungeon is to
destroy the four pillars that support the main tower: First, you must locate
each pillar, then you must transport the steel orb found in one room of the
dungeon to that pillar and use it to destroy it.  Throwing the orb into a
pit re-locates it back to its original room.  When the four pillars are
destroyed, the final rooms become accessible.  You get the Mirror Shield in
this dungeon which blocks just about every type of projectile, including the
giant fireballs that prevent you from getting to the eighth dungeon.  To
'defeat' the Mini-Nightmare, just destroy all of his bats in one wave.  When
you reach the boss at the top of the tower, slice him with your sword to
damage him, and use the Pegasus Boots to avoid getting knocked off by the
gusts of wind.  Remember that if you fall off, you will have to restart the
battle.

Before Dungeon 8 [0115]
New Items:
60 Bombs Upgrade
1 Heart Piece (#11)

- Get Heart Piece #11 (TalTal Heights)
From the Eagle's Tower, drop down the right-hand gap, then go back west
through the series of caves, back up the long stairs, and west twice to the
Cuckoo House.  Go west twice more, using the Hookshot to get across the gaps.
Rescue Marin to the west by hookshotting through her.  When she leaves, go
west, chop up the bush and enter the secret tunnel.  Inside, bomb the south
wall and go through, then go east to get the Heart Piece.
- Get 60 Bombs Upgrade (TalTal Heights)
Go back west and north, then go west and down the stairs.  Once you are
outside the tunnel, make your way up to the top of the mountain, avoiding all

the cracked wall and go enter.  Go north and use the Mirror Shield to get
past the spouting flames, and go west.  Outside, follow the path west until
you get to a giant turtle head.  Play the Song of Soul, and it will come
alive; slice it up with your sword, then enter the dungeon.  Turtle Rock isn't
as difficult as Eagle's Tower, but Link will still face a ton of obstacles in
this, the final dungeon.  There is a new puzzle device in here: A pathmaker.
You will use this device to create a path across lava to the next room, or to
completely fill in a bottomless pit to unlock a secret item.  The most
annoying new enemies are the fire gargoyles: Jump attack them to split them
into two bats, and they'll fly off.  Of course, once you get the Fire Rod, all
the common enemies will be incredibly easy.  The Fire Rod is an outstanding
weapon, and instantly kills just about all common foes in one hit.  To get to
it, however, you have to make sure you've hit a crystal switch in a certain
room beforehand.  The Mini-Nightmare in this dungeon can be a major threat-
whatever you do, don't get hit by his sucker punch, or you'll be thrown back
to the entrance of the dungeon!  The Nightmare is not very difficult; just
stand back and use the Fire Rod on him non-stop until he dies.

- Defeat Dethl (Wind Fish's Egg)
Now, you are ready to enter the Wind Fish's Egg and confront the final boss
of the game!  First, enter the Mabe Village library, then use the Magnifying
Lens to read the book in the southeast corner.  Write down the path the book
tells you, since it is completely random.  Now, play Manbo's Mambo, and go
east and north to get to TalTal Heights.  Go north, around to the west, then
up and around to the east, then climb the giant steps to the north.  At the
top of this mountain, play the Ballad of the Wind Fish in front of the egg.
It will open up, and you can enter.  Go north and drop down into the pit.
Now, inside the Wind Fish maze, go in the directions that the book described.
After the final direction, you should reach a pit.  Drop down it to reach the
final Nightmares.  To destroy the first form, just use Magic Powder on it
until it dies.  The second form takes on the shape of Agahnim from A Link to
the Past.  Deflect its energy orbs with your sword to damage it.  The third
form takes on the shape of the Moldorm from the first dungeon; slice its tail
with your sword until it's gone.  The fourth form takes on the shape of your
long-term foe, Ganon!  Spin attack or ram attack it with your sword, and it
will eventually disappear.  To destroy the fifth form, just shoot it with an
arrow or the Fire Rod once.  You will now face the final Nightmare, Dethl!
Equip the Roc's Cape and use it to jump over its swinging arms, and shoot
arrows at its eye when it opens up.  Do this until it is finally destroyed.
It will also die if you just hit it with the Boomerang in the eye once.  When
you have defeated it, the Wind Fish wakes and you have beaten the game!

The photo shop is an interesting new addition in the updated version.  Fill

time.

2. Color Dungeon [0202]
Defeat Bubblehead
Get Red Clothes OR Blue Clothes
Dungeon notes: The Color Dungeon is completable after the third dungeon in
the DX version.  First, enter the Mabe Village library, and ram into the
book shelf to knock the book down.  Read the book to find this combination:
3 ^   4 ->  5 ^
2 <-  1 V
From the Witch's hut, go east, south, then east.  Push the gravestones in
the order described in the book to open up the secret entrance.  The Color
Dungeon is uniquely designed and fairly short- but with several difficult
switch puzzles and battles.  There are two Mini-Nightmares: Defeat the
first gelatinous boss by using Magic Powder on him, and slice up the second
with your sword while avoiding the earthquakes and boulders.  The
Nightmare can be frustratingly difficult; you will have to keep kamikaze
Ram attacking it with the Pegasus Boots while avoiding the projectiles until
it turns yellow, then red, then dead.  Completing the secret dungeon rewards
Link with an awesome prize: The choice of the Red Clothes, which double his
offense, or the Blue Clothes, which double his defense.  Remember that you
can return here later and switch clothes if you desire to.
