This is the mega-popular NES game that started a series of great adventure
games spanning across all the Nintendo systems (with the exception of the
Virtual Boy). The first in the series was just excellent; it was simple and
challenging at the same time, which is good. Anyway, there are 8 pieces of
the Triforce that you must find in each of the 8 dungeons of the game.
However, you get many weapons/items to help you along the way. At the end,
you have a showdown with Ganon in the final dungeon. I'm not going to give it
all away here, but for those who are true fans of the series MUST play this
game!

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

A long, long time ago the World was in an age of Chaos. In the middle of this
chaos, in a little kingdom in the land of Hyrule, a legend was being banded
down from generation to generation, the legend of the "Triforce"; golden
triangles possessing mystical powers.

One day, an evil army attacked this peaceful little kingdom and stole the
Triforce of Power. This army was lead by Gannon, the powerful Prince of
Darkness who sought to plunge the World into fear and darkness under his
rule. Fearing his wicked rule, Zelda, the princess of this kingdom, split up
the Triforce of Wisdom into eight fragments and hid them throughout the realm
to save the last remaining Triforce from the clutches of the evil Gannon. At
the same time, she commanded her most trustworthy nursemaid, Impa, to
secretly escape into the land and go find a man with enough courage to
destroy the evil Gannon. Upon hearing this, Gannon grew angry, imprisoned the
princess, and sent out a party in search of Impa.

Braving forests and mountains, Impa fled for her life from her pursuers. As
she reached the very limit of her energy she found herself surrounded by
Gannon's evil henchmen. Cornered! What could she do? ...But wait!

All was not lost. A young lad appeared. He skillfully drove off Gannon's
henchmen, and saved Impa from a fate worse than death. His name was Link.
During his travels he had come across Impa and Gannon's henchmen. Impa told
Link the whole story of the princess Zelda and the evil Gannon. Burning with
a sense of justice, Link resolved to save Zelda, but Gannon was a powerful
opponent. He held the Triforce of Power. And so, in order to fight off
Gannon, Link had to bring the scattered eight fragments of the Triforce of
Wisdom together to rebuild the mystical Triangle.

If he couldn't do this, there would be no chance Link could fight his way
into Death Mountain where Gannon lived. Can Link really destroy Gannon and
save the princess Zelda? Only your skill can answer that question. Good luck.
Use the Triforce wisely.

========
Gambling
========

In certain caves in the overworld, you can take part in a gambling game.
There are 3 rupees in front of you, and you have to pick one of them. You can
either win or lose money here, so it's all a matter of luck. It helps to try
this when you're in need of some cash and you're feeling a bit lucky. See the
above locations list for information on where Gambling caves are in the
overworld.

Overworld
---------

When you start the game, head into the cave nearby and take the Wooden Sword.
Then, exit the cave and head east 1 screen, then north 4 screens, while
defeating the Octoroks and Leevers along the way for some quick rupees. Head
west across the bridge to the next screen, then enter Dungeon 1, the Eagle.

Dungeon 1 (Eagle)
-----------------

When you enter this first dungeon, head into the east room first. Defeat the
Stalfos enemies, especially the one carrying the Key. Go back to the first
room, then enter the west room. Defeat the 3 Keese here and take the Key that
appears. Go back to the first room and unlock the north door, then enter that
room. Here, defeat the 3 Stalfos and continue to the following room. In this
room, beat some more Stalfos and grab the Key that appears, then head east to
the next room. Get through all the Keese and take the Compass, then go back
to the previous room. Keep going west into the following room.

Defeat the Keese and unlock the door leading north to the next room. There,
defeat the 3 Gels and push the block to open the west door. If you want to
see the old man, enter the west room; otherwise, continue east to the next
room. Defeat the Gels here and grab the Map, then head north to the next
room. Here, beat the 3 Stalfos, particularly the one with the Key, then
unlock the door and enter the next room.

In this room, defeat the 3 Goriyas and take the Key that appears, then unlock
the west door and enter that room. Get to the west side of the room while
avoiding the Blade Traps (step into the path of the Blade Traps to activate
them, then move past as they retract). Push the west block out of the way and
go down the stairs, then claim the Bow. Go back upstairs and head east 1
room, then south 2 rooms.

When you're back in the room with the locked door to the east, unlock it and
enter that room. Defeat the 3 Goriyas and claim the Wooden Boomerang, then
continue east to the next room. Get the Key in the room while defeating or
avoiding the Wallmasters that come out (try not to get grabbed or you'll be
sent to the dungeon entrance). Unlock the north door and enter the boss room.
Read the Bosses section if you need help (which I HIGHLY doubt you will)
beating Aquamentus, which is this dragon boss. After you win, take the Heart
Container and enter the last room to claim the Triforce piece. You'll then be
brought back outside again.

Overworld
---------

Back outside, head east across the bridge to the next screen. There are a few
things you should do before heading to the second dungeon. Start by heading
all the way south, defeating the enemies along the way to get some rupees. At
the southmost point, head all the way east to the bottom-right corner of the
overworld. Defeat the Octoroks, Tektites (hopping spider-like enemies), and
Leevers along the way to get a good amount of rupees. At the eastmost point,
head north 1 screen and enter the cave, which is a shop.

Buy some Bombs for 20 rupees, then head west 2 screens. Then, head north 1
screen and east 1 screen to another shop. Buy a Blue Candle at this point (if
you don't have 60 rupees, go fight some enemies and come back to get it).
After that, head west 1 screen and continue north for 2 more screens,
defeating the Moblins along the way. In the area with the 2 Armos Knights in
the middle, awaken and defeat the right one and go down the stairs to a
hidden room. A Moblin will secretly give you 30 rupees there. Leave there and
continue north 2 screens and east 1 screen. Go north and enter the cave to
get the Letter from the old man there.

Now, go back south 1 screen, west 1 screen, then south 1 more screen. From
there, head west to the next screen and bomb the right side of the rock
formation in the middle of the area to reveal a cave. Enter it and claim the
Heart Container inside (don't take the Water of Life; you can buy some later
if you want it so badly). After that, head north up the steps to the next
screen. Then, go west 2 screens and north 1 screen. Go around the pond, being
careful of the tough red Lynel enemy around the path. Enter the cave and take
the White Sword since you have 5 Heart Containers at this point.

Now, exit this cave and go back around and south to the previous screen.
Then, head west as far as you can go while avoiding the falling boulders
along the way. Head south 1 screen and east 6 screens, defeating the Peahats,
Octoroks, and Leevers you encounter along the way. Then, head south 2 screens
and west 1 screen. Defeat the enemies there, then go north up the blue steps
to the next area, where you'll find Dungeon 2, the Moon.

Dungeon 2 (Moon)
----------------

In this dungeon, head east into the next room and defeat the Ropes you see
there. Take the Key that appears and go back to the previous room. Now, head
north to the next room, and defeat the Ropes there as well. Go through the
door to the left that opens into the next room. Beat some more Ropes and take
the Key, then head east 2 rooms. Defeat 3 more Ropes in this room, then
unlock the east door and into the following room. Defeat the Gels here and
take the Compass in the upper-right corner of the room.

Go back to the previous room, then head north to the next room this time.
Here, defeat the Goriyas and unlock the east door, then enter that room. Take
the Map and go back to the previous room, then head north to the next room.
In this room, defeat the Ropes and take the Key that appears, then go east
into that room. Here, defeat the 3 blue Goriyas while avoiding the fireballs
shot by the statues in the corners, then claim the Metal Boomerang to replace
your wooden one.

Now, go back west to the previous room, and then head north to the following
room. Defeat the 2 Moldorms and take the Key that appears, then go east into
the next room. Here, watch out for the Blade Traps and defeat the Gels, then
take the Bombs in the middle of the room. Go back to the previous room and
head north another room. In this room, defeat all the Ropes, then unlock the
east door and enter that room.

Defeat the Gels and take the 5 rupees that appear, then go back to the
previous room (unless you want to see the Old Man, which in that case you'll
go into the north room). Then, continue north to the following room. Defeat
the Goriyas and take the Bombs that appear in the corner of the room, then
continue to the next room where you'll fight the Dodongo bosses. Read the
Bosses section for help on winning here. After that, head west to the final
room and take the Triforce piece, clearing this level!

Overworld
---------

Back in the overworld, head south 1 screen and east 1 screen. Go south
another screen, then head ALL THE WAY west until you can't go any further
(you should be on a screen with a dock at that point). From there, head south
1 screen and go across the bridge, and continue west to the next screen.
Continue west 1 screen and south another screen. Then, go east 1 screen and
enter Dungeon 3, the Manji.

Dungeon 3 (Manji)
-----------------

When you enter this dungeon, go west into the next room. Here, defeat the
Zols and continue north to the following room. Defeat some more Zols and take
the Key that appears, then keep going to the next room. In this room, defeat
the red Darknuts and take the Bombs that appear after you beat them all.
Then, head west into the next room. Here, quickly go left to avoid the Blade
Traps, then defeat the Keese and collect the Compass in the middle of the
room.

Then, avoid the Blade Traps along the west side of the room and unlock the
door, and enter that room. Defeat the Darknuts to open the south door, then
continue into the next room. Here, get around the Darknuts and defeat them
with the help of some Bombs, then collect the bunch of Bombs that appear
after you beat them. Go down the stairs and take the Raft, then go back
upstairs and head north to the previous room.

In this next room, continue north into the room you didn't yet explore. In
this room, watch out for the flashing Bubbles since you won't be able to use
your sword for a few moments if one touches you. Defeat the Keese and Zols
here, then take the Key and go east to the next room. Continue east through
the narrow path and defeat the Keese along the way. Collect the Bombs that
appear after you beat all the Keese, then unlock the east door and enter that
room. In this room, defeat the Zols and take the Key, then unlock the north
door and go into that room.

Here, avoid the Blade Traps and defeat the Zols, then push the left block to
open the north door. Avoid the traps and continue into that room. Read the
Old Man's advice, then continue to the following room. Take the Key in the
room and defeat all the Keese to unlock the door. Now, go back east 1 room
and south 2 rooms. From here, unlock the east door with a Key and enter the
next room. Avoid the Blade Traps here and defeat the Zols, then take the Map
and head south to the next room.

In this room, defeat the 3 Darknuts wandering around, then go through the now
open east door into the next room. Defeat the Keese and Zols in this room
while avoiding the flashing Bubbles. Collect the 5 rupees that appear in the
upper-left corner, then enter the north room to meet the boss. Read the
Bosses section for help on beating Manhandla. After you win, take the Heart
Container and head to the next room to claim the Triforce piece. You'll then
be back outside once again.

Overworld
---------

Back outside, head west 3 screens and defeat the enemies along the way for
some rupees. Then, head north 1 screen into the Lost Woods. Head north, west,
south, and west to get through it. Then in the next area, head north to the
next screen and defeat the Lynels you encounter. Continue north 2 more
screens through the cemetery, then head east 3 screens. Go north on the right
ladder to the next screen, and head east to the following screen with the
Armos Knights.

Defeat the Armos in the upper-right corner and take the Power Bracelet that
was underneath it. Now you're able to push the rocks and enter the
Underground Passageways! Now, head west 1 screen, south 1 screen, west 1
screen, then north the left ladder. Defeat the Lynels and push the left rock
aside, then enter the Underground Passageway. Take the middle stairs to come
out in the passageway to the east of where you start the game.

Now it's time to get over 250 rupees so you can afford the Blue Ring (if you
haven't already). Defeat the blue Tektites here and in the screen to the
east, then continue to the following screen with the Leevers. Bomb the left
wall to reveal a cave, then take the Heart Container inside, which will give
you a total of 8 Heart Containers. Now, continue east until you can't go any
further, then head north several screens until you reach the dock. Use the
Raft to go across to another area, then enter the cave and take the Heart
Container in there, giving you 9 total.

Leave here and go back to the previous screen via raft. Then, head west 1
screen, north 1 screen, and west 1 screen. If you don't yet have 250 rupees
at least, continue north and east to P7 and play the Gambling game until you
do. If you do, head north up the steps and push the rock to open an
Underground Passageway. Take the right stairs to end up in the screen with
the blue Tektites.

Now, head 3 screens west, 1 screen north, 2 screens west, then north as far
as you can go. If you followed those directions correctly, you'll be in an
area with a group of Armos Knights. Defeat the middle one in the top row,
then go down the steps into the shop and buy the Blue Ring for 250 rupees.
Now with added protection from attacks, leave the shop and backtrack to the
area with the blue Tektites by the Underground Passageway.

Defeat them and the ones in the screen to the east. Then, make your way east
2 screens more (the screen directly east of where you bombed the wall and
found the Heart Container). Bomb the north wall near the middle to reveal
another cave. Enter it and play the Gambling game. Keep leaving/reentering
and winning, then after you have 90 rupees, leave there. Head all the way
west through 4 screens, then north 3. You should be in the area with the
Leevers and a path heading west. Take the path west 1 screen. Burn the fifth
bush from the right with the Blue Candle to reveal some stairs. Go down them
and claim your tenth Heart Container. Now, head west 1 screen and burn the
bush at the corner. Enter the shop and buy the Large Shield for 90 rupees.

Now that you have some new stuff, as well as more health, head south 1 screen
and west 1 screen. Walk on the dock and you'll automatically use the Raft to
drift to the next area. Here, enter the cave which is Dungeon 4, the Snake.

Dungeon 4 (Snake)
-----------------

In this dungeon, start by heading west into the next room. Defeat all of the
Keese and take the Key, then go back to the first room. Head north to the
following room and defeat the Vires and Keese here. After that, head east
into the next room. Use the Blue Candle to light the room, then defeat the
Vires and take the Compass. Head back to the previous room, and head north to
the next room. In this room, defeat the Keese and take the Key, then go west
to the following room.

Light up the room and defeat the Vires here, then continue north to another
room. Light this room up as well, then defeat the Zols and continue to the
next room. Use a Candle to light this room up, then defeat the Vire on this
side of the gap. Avoid the Bubbles and unlock the east door, then enter that
room. Here, defeat the Vires to open the east door. Enter that room and
defeat the Zols, along with the Like Likes (if they swallow you, you may lose
your Large Shield, so be VERY careful). Push the left block and go down the
stairs to get the Ladder. You can now cross those gaps and narrow streams of
water with this useful item!

Now, head back upstairs and west to the previous room. Use the Ladder and
quickly cross halfway through the room, then unlock the north door and enter
that room. Defeat the 3 Gels there, then leave this room. Continue west to
the following room, then light the room up and go across the stream and
unlock the north door. Continue into the next room, then in that room, defeat
all the Vires hopping around.

Go east into the next room, then light up the room and defeat the last 2
Gels. Take the Map at the other side of the room, then go back to the
previous room. Here, go north into the next room and defeat the Manhandla
here just as you did with it in the previous dungeon. After you beat it, bomb
the right wall and enter the hidden room on the map. Take the 10 rupees here,
then go back to the previous room. From there, continue north to the next
room to hear the Old Man's advice, then keep going right to another room.

Here, light up the room and use the Ladder to get through here while
defeating the Keese along the way. Take the Key and continue to the following
room. As soon as you enter this room, trigger the Blade Traps and go back to
the doorway where they won't hit you. As they retract, light up the room and
get out of the trap's way. Head south into the next room and defeat the Vires
there, then push the left block to open the east door. Continue into the next
room where you'll fight the Gleeok boss; read the Bosses section for help
here. After the fight, take the Heart Container, go to the next room, and
take the Triforce piece to complete this dungeon.

Overworld
---------

Back outside, head south and to the previous area. Then, continue south 1
screen, east 1, then south another to the bottom row of the overworld. Now,
head east all the way to the end, defeating all the enemies and collecting
the rupees along the way. When you reach the bottom-right corner of the map,
head north 1 screen and enter the shop. Buy Arrows for 80 rupees (if you
don't have the money, go fight enemies and come back for the Arrows). After
that, continue north to another screen and you'll see a Heart Container on a
ledge surrounded by water. Use the Ladder and go across the 2 platforms to
claim the container, giving you 12 total containers.

Now, continue north 2 more screens, west 1 screen, north 1 screen, then west
for 1 more screen. Head up the blue steps and go west to the next screen.
Continue west to the following area, and you will be in the Lost Hills. Go
north 5 times to get through here, and you'll end up at the fifth dungeon,
the Lizard. Make sure you have Arrows, and at least 100 rupees currently with
you; if you don't have 100 rupees, get them by playing a Gambling game or
fighting enemies until you do. You'll need them if you want to be able to
carry 4 more Bombs.

Dungeon 5 (Lizard)
------------------

When you enter this dungeon, head right into the next room. Defeat the Pols
Voices with the Bow/Arrows, then take the Key that appears. Go back to the
previous room, then head north into the next new room. Light up the room and
defeat the Gibdos and take the Key from the one carrying it. Unlock the east
door and enter that room to get the Old Man's advice, then go back to the
previous room. Cross the stream with the Ladder and continue into the next
room. Here, defeat the 3 Dodongos like in previous dungeons (using the trick
to stun and kill with your sword really helps).

After you beat them, head west into the next room. Cross the room with the
Ladder, then defeat the Zols and take the Key that appears. Continue south to
the next room, then defeat the Gibdos and take the Bombs that one of them
drops. Bomb the left wall to create a hole, then enter that room. Defeat the
extremely tough blue Darknuts (if you have Water of Life, it'd help if you
get in real danger here). Push the left block out of the way and go through
the underground passage to reach another room of the dungeon.

In this new room, unlock the west door and enter that room. Defeat all the
blue Darknuts here, then push the block to make stairs appear. Go down them
and take the Whistle. Go back upstairs and head east to the previous room.
Unlock the south door and head into that room, then defeat the Keese and take
the Key here. Bomb the right wall and enter the hidden room, then pay 100
rupees to increase the amount of Bombs you can carry to 12 total.

Now, go back west 1 room and north 1 room, then push the left block aside and
go through the passage to reach the next room. Avoid the blue Darknuts and
head east to the next room. Defeat the Gibdos if you want, then bomb the
right wall and continue to the following room. Light up this room and defeat
the Gibdos, then head north into the next room. Avoid the Dodongos and unlock
the north door and enter that room. Go forward and take the Map, then go back
to the previous room. Head through the east door into the following room.

In this next room, light up the room with a Candle, then defeat the Zols and
take the 5-rupee piece that appears. Now, head north to the next room. Here,
defeat the Gibdos and take the Key that appears, then continue north to the
next room. Light up the room and defeat the 3 red Darknuts, then take the
Compass and head north to the following room. In this room, light up the room
and defeat the Keese and Gibdos with your sword, and the Pols Voices with the
Bow/Arrows. After that, take the Key in the middle of the room and unlock the
west door, then enter that room.

Defeat the Gibdos and take the Key that appears after you beat them, then
continue west into the following room. In this room, use your Bow and Arrows
to defeat the Pols Voices here. Then, unlock the door and enter the next
room, where you'll fight the boss known as Digdogger. Read the Bosses section
for help on winning here. After you win, take the Heart Container and go
north into the next room and take the Triforce piece, completing the dungeon!

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
-=  8. Enemies  -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Armos Knight
    Description: This inanimate knight stands totally lifeless until you
                 touch it. If you touch it, it'll come to life and move
                 around. Some move slow and others move fast, so be careful
                 when attacking this enemy.

Blade Trap
    Description: This spiked trap sits in each corner of the room in some
                 rooms of the dungeons. When you come close to any side of
                 the room (i.e. the area between two traps), the Blade Traps
                 against that wall will come together to try and crush you.
                 Step in their path and step back, then as they retract, you
                 should go through the door since it's safe.

Bubble
    Description: This round creature moving around in some dungeons are VERY
                 annoying, especially later in the game. If one touches you,
                 you cannot use your sword for a few moments. There are three
                 types of Bubble: flashing, red, and blue. The flashing one's
                 effects wear off after a few moments, but if you get hit by
                 a red one, you can only use your sword again if you touch a
                 blue Bubble. You can't destroy it, so your best bet is to
                 stay as far away as you can from this creature!

Darknut
    Description: This armored knight with a sword and shield held in front
                 can be pretty tough when encountered in the dungeons. You
                 can only hit it from the sides or back, but be careful since
                 it can quickly turn around and attack you. I recommend
                 dropping Bombs so they explode when a Darknut is near, which
                 is a safe way to kill it. There are two types of Darknuts:
                 red ones and blue ones. The blue ones move much faster and
                 can take many more hits before dying off, so be careful.

Gel
    Description: The tiny gel-like creature found in most dungeons is not a
                 threat to you at all. It moves one tile at a time, so you
                 can quickly kill it with one hit.

Ghini
    Description: This ghost creature inhabits the cemetery in the west area
                 of the overworld. When you touch a tombstone, another Ghini
                 appears, but you can only actually harm the one that was
                 originally there BEFORE touching any stones. Defeat the
                 original one and all the "fakes" will disappear as well.

Gibdo
    Description: This mummy lurks in the dungeons of the game, but isn't too
                 hard to get rid of. It moves and acts just like a Stalfos,
                 except for the fact that it can take more hits.

Goriya
    Description: Here's the boomerang-throwing creature found in some of the
                 game's dungeons. It wanders around, then stops to throw a
                 boomerang straight ahead. Wait until it stops and throws,
                 then attack it a few times from behind or the side to kill.
                 There are two types of Goriya: red and blue. The blue ones
                 are much stronger and throw metal boomerangs instead.

Keese
    Description: This small bat enemy is just about the most basic enemy in
                 the game. It flies around in a room for a few moments, then
                 stops for a moment, and repeats. It only takes one hit to
                 kill, too.

Lanmola
    Description: This fast-moving centipede creature, also found in pairs, is
                 not much harder than the Moldorm to defeat. Just attack it
                 to decrease its size, then continue the attack until it
                 disappears completely.

Leever
    Description: This sand-type enemy comes out of the ground and follows you
                 for a moment before going back into the ground. It takes
                 more than one hit to kill, but it's pretty simple to get
                 away from either way.

Like Like
    Description: This sponge-like creature, found in the dungeons, has a
                 habit of swallowing Link whole, then eating his Large
                 Shield! Avoid close contact with this enemy; use Arrows or
                 Bombs to take it out safely instead.

Lynel
    Description: This half human, half beast creature is pretty tough,
                 especially since it throws swords at you. The swords can
                 only be blocked by the Large Shield, and this enemy is tough
                 to beat, so make sure you hit it with the Boomerang to stop
                 it, then attack, and repeat until you beat it.

Moldorm
    Description: This worm-like creature, usually found in pairs, are found
                 in some dungeons of the game. It moves around the room at a
                 slow pace, and each time you attack with your sword, it'll
                 get smaller and smaller until you destroy it.

Octorok
    Description: This octopus-like creature moves along on the ground and
                 spits rocks straight ahead. They stop before shooting, so
                 you'll know when they're about to attack. There are two
                 types of Octorok: the red one and the blue one. They're both
                 the same, but the blue Octorok takes more than one hit
                 before dying.

Patra
    Description: This fly-like creature is a two-part enemy to fight. There
                 are many smaller flies spinning around the main blue one,
                 and you must destroy all the small ones with a couple hits
                 from your sword each in order to be able to damage the main
                 body. Kill all the small ones, then hit the blue creature a
                 few times to kill it.

Peahat
    Description: This rather interesting creature in the overworld flies in
                 the air by using the propellers on its head. You can only
                 hurt it when it's on the ground, so wait until it stops
                 moving before attacking.

Rope
    Description: This snake-like creature found in the dungeons dashes
                 straight ahead when you're in its line of sight. Get out of
                 the way or hit it as it approaches with your sword to kill
                 it quickly.

Stalfos
    Description: This skeleton enemy, found in the dungeons, is pretty simple
                 to get rid of. It moves slowly, so you can quickly hit it a
                 couple times to defeat it without worrying about getting
                 hurt yourself.

Tektite
    Description: This is the spider-type enemy that hops around in certain
                 areas of the overworld. There are two colors of Tektites:
                 blue and red. The blue ones are VERY good sources of rupees,
                 so be sure to find areas with blue Tektites if you need some
                 cash!

Vire
    Description: This is the hopping blue bat creature in later dungeons. If
                 you attack it, it'll split into 2 Keese to attack. If you
                 have the Magical Sword, you can destroy it in one hit,
                 preventing the split altogether.

Wallmaster
    Description: This blue hand that comes out of the walls in some rooms of
                 the dungeons can be pretty tough since if it grabs you, you
                 will be sent to the dungeon entrance. Defeat it from a
                 distance, or just avoid it altogether to be safe.

Wizzrobe
    Description: This wizard enemy, found in later dungeons, can shoot magic
                 waves at you to attack. It disappears, then reappears at a
                 random spot and shoots a magic beam straight ahead before
                 disappearing again. Attack while it's visible to cause
                 damage.

Zol
    Description: This giant version of the Gel is just as easy to beat. Just
                 hit it with your sword and it'll split into 2 Gels for you
                 to kill. If you hit it with a stronger sword or weapon,
                 it'll die without splitting in two.

Zora
    Description: This water-dwelling creature surfaces and shoots a fireball
                 at you before diving underwater again to appear in another
                 spot. Its fireballs can only be blocked by the Large Shield,
                 but if it pops up by the edge of the water, you can quickly
                 try to kill it with your sword.

-=  9. Bosses -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Aquamentus
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 1, Dungeon 7
           (Second Quest) Dungeon 1
    Strategy: This dragon boss is the simplest of the bosses in this game. It
              slowly moves back and forth and shoots fireballs in 3 different
              directions, which you can easily avoid. When it's not shooting
              fireballs at you, come in and hit it several times with your
              sword until you beat it.

Dodongo
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 2
           (Second Quest) Dungeon 3, Dungeon 8
    Strategy: The Dodongo is a tough-shelled creature and can't be damaged
              externally. The only way to hurt it is to feed it bombs. Get in
              front of it and place a Bomb in front of it. The Dodongo will
              eat the bomb and take damage. Repeat that a few times until you
              beat it. An alternate method is to place a bomb so it explodes
              when the Dodongo is near. It will stun the Dodongo, allowing
              you to attack it with your sword and defeat it.

Manhandla
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 3
    Strategy: This weird man-eating creature moves around the room with a
              claw on each side. Each time you destroy a claw, it moves
              faster and faster. After all claws are gone, the boss is
              defeated. One way to quickly defeat it is to place a Bomb and
              time its placement so it explodes as the middle part of the
              boss passes over it. With luck, the bomb will hit the middle
              area, instantly killing the boss.

Gleeok
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 4, Dungeon 8
           (Second Quest) Dungeon 2, Dungeon 5, Dungeon 7
    Strategy: This multi-headed dragon is situated in the middle of the room
              against the north wall. The heads move around and shoot
              fireballs that cannot be blocked at you. Attack the heads with
              your sword to cause damage. After enough hits, a head will
              detach and fly around the room, shooting fireballs. Continue
              attacking the attached head(s) and avoid them as they fall off
              and fly around. After you defeat the last head, the boss is
              defeated.

Digdogger
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 5
           (Second Quest) Dungeon 4
    Strategy: This round, yellow creature is a pretty simple boss to defeat.
              It cannot be damaged in its normal form, but when you use the
              Whistle, it'll shrink down to a much smaller and more
              vulnerable size. Attack it at that point with your sword until
              you defeat it.

Gohma
    Found: (First Quest) Dungeon 6
           (Second Quest) Dungeon 6
    Strategy: This giant crab-like boss is invulnerable to just about any
              attack you can hit it with. Its weak spot is its eyeball in the
              middle, and you can only hit it with Arrows. When its eye is
              open, shoot an Arrow to instantly kill it.

Ganon
    Found: (Both Quests) Dungeon 9
    Strategy: This is the final battle against the evil Ganon, and you better
              be prepared for it! Ganon will be invisible as he moves around
              the room shooting fireballs at you. Basically, just stab around
              randomly and you'll eventually hit him, making him visible for
              that moment. Repeat that attack pattern a few more times until
              Ganon turns red when you hit him. At that point, shoot him with
              a Silver Arrow to defeat him and beat the game!

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

===============
Inventory Items
===============

Bait: You can drop this on the ground and nearby enemies will be lured
      towards it, making it easier for you to attack. In some dungeons, you
      need to give this to a Moblin in order to progress.

Blue Candle: This candle that can be bought in some shops allows you to burn
             bushes, enemies, etc. However, it can only be used once per
             screen, so if you want to use it again, you must continue to the
             next screen and it'll be replenished.

Blue Ring: This special ring protects Link from 1/2 as much damage as normal.
           It can only be bought in one shop in the entire game, and its
           price is quite steep, but it's worth it!

Bomb: Use this explosive to either attack enemies or blow open secret rooms
      in the overworld and in the dungeons. In the start, you can only hold a
      certain amount of bombs, but as you go on, you can find an Old Man
      that'll allow you to carry more, but for a small price.

Boomerang: You can throw this at an enemy to temporarily stun them, or to
           collect distant items, such as rupees and bombs. There are two
           types of Boomerangs as well: the Wooden Boomerang and the Metal
           Bommerang. You find the Wooden one first, which can only be thrown
           a short distance, but the Metal Boomerang found later can go much
           farther.

Bow: Use this to shoot arrows at the enemies from a distance. Arrows can be
     bought from some shops, and they're more expensive than bombs, but they
     help alot when you need to keep your distance from an enemy. However,
     each time you shoot an Arrow, you lose 1 rupee, so use them sparingly.
     You normally use Wooden Arrows to attack, but late in the game you get
     Silver Arrows, which are crucial to defeating Ganon.

Ladder: Use this to walk across narrow sections of water to get across.

Letter: This letter allows you to buy Water of Life from an Old Woman
        throughout the game. Without it, you cannot buy anything from her.

Magic Book: This book is basically an upgrade to the Magic Wand. When you use
            the wand, after the beam hits its target, flames appear to cause
            added damage.

Magic Key: Found late in the game, this special key voids the need for
           regular Keys in the dungeons anymore. It can open any locked door,
           and it helps in areas lacking small Keys.
Magic Wand: This magical wand can be used to shoot beams at enemies in the
            distance. After you get the Magic Book, its power increases since
            flames will also appear when a target is hit.

Power Bracelet: You can use this to push aside rocks in the overworld, which
                reveal underground passageways. This is extremely useful, and
                it's recommended you go find it as soon as possible!

Raft: Use this at a dock and you'll float to an otherwise unreachable area.

Red Candle: This much better candle works just like the Blue Candle, but you
            can use it unlimited times per screen. That makes it much easier
            when using it to burn down bushes to find secret passages and
            such.

Red Ring: This second protection ring protects Link so he only takes 1/4
          damage from enemies than he would if he had no ring at all. It's
          found in the final dungeon, and it's well worth finding there too.

Shield: Here's your basic protection from rocks, fireballs, arrows, and other
        projectile attacks. You start the game with the regular Shield, but
        you can buy the Large Shield which can protect from fireballs and
        other stuff the smaller shield couldn't.

Sword: This is your main weapon to use when battling enemies; press A to use
       it. There are 3 different swords you can get: the Wooden Sword, White
       Sword, and Magical Sword. You start the game with the Wooden Sword,
       and you can find/obtain the other two swords later in the game.

Water of Life: This special medicine, bought from Old Women, can completely
               heal Link when used. You must first give the Letter to an Old
               Woman in order to buy this medicine from her. There are two
               types of this Water of Life: Blue and Red. Blue Water can only
               be used once, and the Red one can be used twice. When you use
               a Red Water, it turns blue, which means you can only use it
               once more before it disappears.

Whistle: Use this on the overworld to warp to entrances of dungeons you've
         already visited. You must also use this in order to defeat a certain
         boss, and open up another dungeon late in the game.

===========================
Non-Inventory/Dungeon Items
===========================

Compass: It places a red dot on the map, which will point out where the
         Triforce piece is located.

Map: It displays a map of all the rooms of the dungeon on your screen,
     whether you explored them or not.

Rupee: The money you use to buy items. There are 2 types of rupees: 1-rupee
       and 5-rupee pieces. The 5 rupee one is totally blue, while the 1 will
       flash orange and blue.

Small Key: Use this to open a locked door in a dungeon.

Stopwatch: Rarely dropped by enemies, this freezes all enemies onscreen. You
           cannot be damaged when touching them in this state, and they stay
           frozen until you leave the screen.

===================
Access Second Quest
===================

If you don't want to play through the first quest to access the second quest
the right way, here's a quick way to do so. On the file select screen, create
a file and name it "ZELDA". The image of Link next to that file will hold a
sword, meaning you can now access the second quest!

===========
Free Rupees
===========

In several hidden caves throughout the overworld, a Moblin will give you a
set amount of rupees for free. You can only do this once per location though,
so here's a list of all locations and how much you can get from each:

First Quest Locations
---------------------

B1: 30 rupees (Bomb north wall to access)
B3: 10 rupees (Burn rightmost bush in second row to access)
C2: 100 rupees (Burn northmost single bush to access)
D7: 30 rupees (Bomb wall left of stairs to access)
G3: 10 rupees (Burn southwest single bush to access)
H2: 30 rupees (Bomb north wall to access)
I4: 30 rupees (Burn northmost single bush to access)
I6: 30 rupees (Burn south bush in second row to access)
L2: 100 rupees (Burn south bush in second row from right to access)
L3: 10 rupees (Burn south bush in left row to access)
N5: 30 rupees (Defeat left Armos to access)
N6: 30 rupees (Bomb wall right of stairs to access)
O4: 10 rupees (Defeat right Armos to access)

I3: 30 rupees (Use Whistle to access)
I4: 30 rupees (Burn right bush in upper-right corner to access)
I6: 30 rupees (Burn south bush in right row to access)
L3: 10 rupees (Burn south bush in leftmost row to access)
L6: 10 rupees (Use Whistle to access)
N5: 30 rupees (Defeat right Armos to access)
N6: 30 rupees (Bomb wall right of stairs to access)
O2: 10 rupees (Use Whistle to access)
O4: 10 rupees (Defeat right Armos to access)

==========
Quick Save
==========

To save your game without having to die first, press Up and A on the #2
Controller to bring up the "Continue, Save, Retry" menu.

==========================
Refill a Red Water of Life
==========================

If you bought a red-colored Water of Life and use it once, it turns blue,
meaning you can only use it once more before it disappears. To refill it from
blue to red without wasting extra money buying a Red Water of Life from the
Old Woman, simply buy another Blue Water of Life. That will make the blue one
you had turn red, giving you 2 uses out of it (the way 2 blues make a red is
beyond me).
