Introduction
The purpose of this guide is to give you hardcore info about the
game, how to pass it, and how to get everything. I tried hard NOT
to reveal much of the story in this guide's walkthrough. I also
did not talk about all the things you could be doing in between
levels. The walkthrough acts like all you want to do is pass the
levels and that's it. I don't recommend you do everything in the
walkthrough and nothing else. You'll be missing out on what the
game has to offer. Between levels use the other information in
this guide to find items and explore! There's plenty to do here
besides pass the levels and get only the essential items. This
guide is intended to be a guide to help you through any levels you
are having a tough time with, and to provide a database of the
locations of most of the items in the game. In addition, this
guide does not talk about game play mechanics except when
describing battle tactics, and assumes you have read the
instructions and now how to equip items and know what Z targeting
means. Plus, the walkthrough is detailed enough that you should
know what to do, but not so detailed as to hold your hand and
insult your intelligence. Often it uses phrases like "fight your
way through this room" or "Make your way to the Eastern section
and find the door that looks like..." rather than "Turn left, walk
a bit, then turn right and shoot the bat there..." except when
such detail is necessary (like in the Bottom of the Well or
Gerudo's Fortress). I've put many sleepless days and nights into
this guide so I hope you find it useful. See section 16 for more
details and information on how to contact me. Enjoy! - Zauron
------------------------------------------------------------------

Other equipment:
Some other equipment is technically considered an upgrade, such as

section 7: Increased carrying capacity and other upgrades.
------------------------------------------------------------------
2: The four bottles, the Chickens, and the 10 Big Poe's
Bottles can be used to hold potions, faeries, ghosts, blue fire,
etc. EXTREMELY useful.
Bottle #1: Win Talon's chicken game at Lon Lon Ranch after waking
Talon at Hyrule Castle. He will give you a bottle with some Lon
Lon Milk in it. To make it easier, first trap all the regular
chickens in a corner before starting.
Bottle #2: Gather all the chickens at Kakariko Village and put
them in the Chicken Woman's pen. Talk to her to get the bottle.
See the Chickens section below.
Bottle #3: Found by diving in Lake Hylia after gaining the Silver
Scale to dive deeper. Has a note in it. Give the note to the
Zora King to use the bottle for something else.
Bottle #4: Given to you from the Poe trader at the entrance to the
Market as adult Link. Bring him 10 Big Poe's and he'll give you
the bottle. See the Poe's section below.
Finding the Chickens:
There are 7 chickens to find in Kakariko village. Here are their
locations and how to get to them.
1 - Right near the entrance to the village.
2 - Right near the chicken woman's pen
3 - On the path up to the North part of town, where the guard and
Death Mountain are.
4 - Behind a fence next to the rich cursed family's door. Float
over with another chicken, then throw both chickens over the ledge
and then take them each to the pen.
5 - In the fenced off area in the Northeast part of town. This
one's tricky. Get a chicken and go up the steps by the chicken
pen. Now aim slantwise and run and jump off aiming for the corner
of the small fence on the ledge. This may take a few tries but
you can get over. If you can't seem to make it another thing to
try is throwing the chicken at the last second and grabbing the
edge of the fence. You can also try getting to the roof of the
house with the guy sitting on it and dropping down the other side.
Get up there by climbing up the very high lookout tower, facing
the construction site, then holding Z and tapping left+A to side
jump over the side and grab onto the fence. Now once you're over
throw the chicken back over the fence (if you used one), then grab
this chicken and throw it over too. Then hop over the fence and
bring it to the pen.
6 - Do the same as chicken 5, except this time after floating over
and throwing the chicken back, climb up the ladder to the ledge
where the windmill is. You should find the chicken somewhere up
there.
7 - As you enter the town the first house on your left, with a red
roof, has a crate next to it's wall. Smash open the crate by
doing a roll attack. (Push A while running toward the crate.
You'll have to time it right.) The chicken is inside the crate.
Finding the Big Poe's:
The Big Poe's only appear in Hyrule Field as Adult Link while
riding Epona. Don't get them confused with regular poes, which
appear when you aren't riding Epona or when you go back to a Big
Poe location you already cleared. You'll know a Big Poe because
they fly away instead of attacking you, and it will say it's a Big
Poe when you put it in a bottle. Catch them by shooting them with
2 arrows then walking up to their remains. Make sure you have an
empty bottle. There are 10 Big Poe's to find and capture to bring
to the Poe Trader, who is at the entrance to Hyrule Castle.
1 - Center of Hyrule Field near a tree by the entrance to Lon Lon
Ranch
2 - Middle right of Hyrule Field near a gray boulder down from the
Kokiri Forest entrance
3 - Top right of Hyrule Field near an overhang overlooking the
entrance to Kakariko Village. Try backing up Epona into the
overhang
4 - Center right of Hyrule Field along a brick wall right of Lon
Lon Ranch
5 - Center of Hyrule Field in front of Hyrule Castle, near a sign
pointing to Lon Lon Ranch
6 - Middle left of Hyrule Field on the paths leading into Gerudo
Valley
7 - Middle left of Hyrule Field up from Gerudo Valley
8 - Top left of Hyrule Field near some bushes by a stream
9 - Bottom right of Hyrule Field near a green tree and some bushes
(ride through the bushes)
10 - Bottom right of Hyrule Field near a rock in a grove of brown
trees (only comes out when you ride past the rock from a certain
angle, so is hard to get)
------------------------------------------------------------------
3: Young Link's Trading Sequence
1 - The egg.
Get it from Malon just outside Hyrule Castle (on the castle
grounds, past the market).
2 - The Chicken.
Wait for a day for the egg to hatch.
3 - The Letter.
Use the chicken to wake up Talon by the castle (equip it and press
c). Then go inside the castle past the guards and find Princess
Zelda. She'll give you the letter.
4 - The keaton mask.
Show the letter to the guard guarding Death Mountain in Kakariko
Village. He'll ask you to get him a mask. Go to the Happy Mask
Shop in the Market to borrow the mask.
5 - The skull mask.
Give the keaton mask to the guard in Kakariko village. Then go
back to the Happy Mask Shop, pay them the money, and get the skull
mask.
6 - The spooky mask.
Go to the Lost woods (get there through the hollow log on the
ledge overlooking Mido's house). Go left to find the Skull kid.
Stand on the short stump wearing the skull mask. (Note that first
you need to play Saria's Song for him if you have not done so
already). He'll buy it from you. Go back to the Happy Mask Shop
and pay them the money and get the spooky mask. It's hard to see
because it blends in with the background but it should be there.
If not try coming back later.
7 - The bunny hood
Go to Kakariko Village during the day time and talk to the kid in
the Kakariko Graveyard wearing the spooky mask. He'll buy it from
you. Go back to the Happy Mask Shop and pay the money, then get
the bunny hood. While wearing the bunny hood no skeletons will
bother you in Hyrule Field.
8 - The Mask of Truth
Run around Hyrule field and look for a man running around the
field. He doesn't appear until after you've beat Jabu-Jabu's
belly. To find him quickly, as soon as you exit the Market run
toward the right side of Lon Lon Ranch and then circle around it a
few times and you should soon see him in the distance. If you
can't find him try again after becoming adult Link and then
warping back, sometimes he doesn't appear until then. When you
find him, follow him around until he becomes tired and sits down
(he won't talk to you until he does). He'll get tired quicker if
you play the Song of the Sun and make it dark then wait for a
little bit. Wear the bunny hood and talk to him and he'll pay you
a ton of money for it. Go back to the Happy Mask Shop and pay
them the money and then you can borrow the Mask of Truth! The
Mask of Truth lets you talk to Gossip Stones when you wear
it...Gossip Stones are those rubber stones that tell you the time
when you hit them with your sword.
9 - Other masks
You can also borrow a Goron mask, a Gerudo mask, and a Zora mask
now. Try wearing them in different places and see the responses
people give you.
------------------------------------------------------------------
4: Adult Link's Trading Sequence
Note that you'll need Epona (see section 6) to get through this
trading sequence. Also remember you have to actually show them
the item using a C-button, not just talk to them.
1 - The egg.
Talk to the chicken woman in Kakariko Village to get the mini
chicken egg.
2 - The chicken
Wait for a day for the egg to hatch.
3 - The blue chicken
Use the mini-chicken to wake Talon in the house on the ground
level of Kakariko village. Bring it back to the chicken woman to
get the blue chicken.
4 - The odd mushroom
Find a sleeping man in the lost woods (just go left from the
entrance) and wake him with the blue chicken. He'll give you an
odd mushroom.
5 - The odd potion
Take the odd mushroom to the weird potion shop in Kakariko Village
(Go to the normal potion shop and go through the hallway on the
left to get to the fenced off section of the village, then go up a
ladder to get to the weird potion shop.) before the time runs out.
If you try using your ocarina to warp it will instantly spoil. A
good shortcut is if you've planted the magic bean as young Link in
the soft soil one screen to the left of the sleeping man, you can
ride the bean platform up onto the bridge and then exit to get out
of Kokiri Forest quickly (it's the bridge that leads out). Give
the shop owner the mushroom and you'll get an odd potion.
6 - Poacher's Saw
Find the small girl in the lost woods (She's where the sleeping
man was, left of the entrance) and trade the odd potion for the
Poacher's Saw
7 - Broken Goron's Sword
Give the Poacher's Saw to the carpenter's boss in Gerudo Valley to
get the broken Goron's Sword. You can get over the broken bridge
by jumping with Epona or using a longshot.
8 - Prescription
Give the broken Goron's Sword to the Big Goron at the summit of
Death Mountain (NOT the one inside Goron City) and get the
Prescription. Climb to the top of Death Mountain and then look at
the right edge of the plateau up there to find this Big Goron.
9 - Eyeball Frog
Bring the prescription to King Zora to get the Eyeball Frog.
Remember to thaw him first by using magic blue fire from the Ice
Cavern (see the Ice Cavern section of the walkthrough).
10 - Eye drops
Bring the Eyeball Frog to the professor in the Lake Hylia lab
before the time runs out to get the Eye drops. If you try using
your Ocarina to warp it will spoil instantly.
11 - Claim Check
Bring the Eye drops back to the Big Goron at the summit of Death
Mountain before the time runs out to get the Claim Check. A
quicker way to get to him is to ride Epona to the Lost Woods, go
R,L,F to warp into the Goron City, then exit and climb the
mountain.
12 - Big Goron's Sword
Wait for three days and return to the Big Goron at the summit of
Death Mountain to get the big Goron's Sword. You can play Song of
the Sun 6 times if you're impatient.
------------------------------------------------------------------
5: Epona the horse
Epona is Adult Link's horse. You can use her to ride around
Hyrule field much quicker. She can also jump over the broken
bridge at Gerudo Valley, and is your only means of finding Big
Poe's. To get Epona follow these steps:
1 - Learn Epona's Song. As young Link talk to Malon in the horse
corral in Lon Lon Ranch any time after meeting Princess Zelda.
Talk to her again and show her your ocarina and she'll teach you
Epona's Song.
2 - Become adult Link and get at least 70 rupees.
3 - Talk to Mr. Ingo outside the corral at Lon Lon Ranch and pay
10 rupees to ride the horse. Instead of getting on the horse
provided, play Epona's Song and Epona will run up to you. Ride
her around the corral to practice. Wait until the time is up.
4 - Talk to Mr. Ingo again and pay to ride again. Play Epona's
Song and get on Epona. This time, walk up to Mr. Ingo while on
Epona and use Z Targeting to talk to him. He'll challenge you to
a race with a 50 rupee wager.
5 - Win the race against Mr. Ingo. He'll challenge you to a
second race. Win again and you'll get Epona.
6 - Use the A button to get Epona running really fast and jump
over any fence to escape the ranch.
Race Tips: Racing Mr. Ingo can be tough. Here's how to win.
Hold forward on the control stick as soon as the race begins. Use
1 carrot (push A to use a carrot) and wait for it to come back
before using it again to keep up with Mr. Ingo. Hug the fence and
wait for him to move out of your way. Then use up all the carrots
you have EXCEPT ONE to speed up and pass him. Then wait until a
second carrot appears and use it, then keep doing this to keep
ahead of Mr. Ingo. NEVER USE YOUR LAST CARROT! Just keep using
the second-to-last carrot. If you use the last one you'll slow
down big time and lose.
Tip: You can play Epona's song whenever you're on Hyrule Field
now to summon her to you. You can also now wake up Talon in the
house in Kakariko Village to get him to return to the ranch, and
then talk to Malon while riding Epona to try out an obstacle
course and win your own cow.
------------------------------------------------------------------
6: Songs of the Ocarina and Secret Ocarina Stuff
Secret Ocarina Stuff: The Ocarina's button layout is the same as
a real Ocarina! The Z trigger simulates the bottom hole. Try
holding down the Z trigger while playing a note and you'll hear
the note changes just like it would on a real Ocarina! Also, if
you push the control stick around while playing the ocarina you'll
change the pitch and modulation, simulating the same effect if you
changed how you were blowing into a real ocarina. Cool huh?
Song keys:
CL=C left, CR = C right, CD = C down, CU = C up, A=A
The songs of the Ocarina:
CL,CU,CR,CL,CU,CR
Zelda's Lullaby - Used all over the place to show you are a royal
messenger. Play whenever you see a Triforce symbol. When all
else fails, try playing this song. Also if you play this song
near one of those rocks that tells you the time (they're called
gossip rocks) you'll be rewarded with a life-giving faerie.
Taught to you by Impa after meeting Zelda for the first time.
CU,CL,CR,CU,CL,CR

Song of the Sun - Used to change night to day and day to night at
any time! Also freezes the undead zombies and mummies.

kill all the bats to open the doorway, and go through the tomb to
learn the Sun's Song.

Player-defined
Scarecrow's Song - summons a scarecrow at certain areas that you
can use your hookshot on to get to things. Look for areas where
Navi turns green but there doesn't seem to be anything there.
To get this song, go as young Link to Lake Hylia and look for a
small farm area with a scarecrow in it in the Northern section.
Show him your Ocarina and he'll ask you to compose a tune. The
tune has to be 8 notes long. Make it easy to remember. Also keep
in mind it will play it back at the same speed you originally
played it, so don't leave any long pauses in there or it will
sound dumb. If you mess up you can push B to try again. Now as
adult Link return to the scarecrow and play the same song for him
again. Now the song you made up becomes the secret Scarecrow's
song.
------------------------------------------------------------------

of the house there. Find the HCP next to a cow.

waved his stick and one of them should be the HCP.
- Kakariko Village - Method 1(AL): Use your hookshot to get on top
of the house with the man sitting on top of it. He'll give you a
HCP. (NOTE: Some people have written me saying you need the
longshot to do this. That simply isn't true. Just go into the
potion shop and out the back door. Stand on the very corner of
the platform you are now and you can just barely get your hookshot
to hit the bottom of the roof and get onto it.) Method 2(YL): Get
a chicken and make your way up the construction site beams by
throwing it up and then climbing up. Then you can float over to

Jump on the rotating platforms to get to the HCP.
- Kakariko Graveyard - AL - If you get 1 minute or less in the
race against the gravedigger you'll get a HCP. Use the longshot
on one of the torches in the last room for a shortcut, although
it's possible to do it without this (I did it without).

young Link. Return as adult Link and ride the magic leaf platform
up to get the HCP.

is facing forward when it stops spinning.
- Dodonogo's Cavern - BL - As young Link plant a Magic Bean at the
entrance to Dodonogo's Cavern. Return as Adult Link and ride the
magic leaf platform up, then jump off of it to get the HCP above

young Link by using a side hop from the ledge above where the bomb
plant is. A side hop is when you hold Z then push B+left or
right)

bean there.

HCP at the peak of one of the small volcanoes
- Zora's River - YL - About halfway up the river is a bunch of
frogs. Play 5 songs for them then take your ocarina out again.
They'll ask you to help them get bugs. Play the ocarina in the
correct pattern to get a HCP. The correct pattern is
A,CL,CR,CD,CL,CR,CD,A,CD,A,CD,CR,CL,A. (Note: They'll also give
you 50 rupees each time you play a different song, so you might
want to go back and buy some Magic Beans with them so you don't
waste their money by having your rupee limit full).
- Zora's River - YL - If you play the Song of Storms for the frogs
from the previous one you'll get a HCP.

control stick toward the ledge and you should grab the ledge.
Climb up and jump to the small platform to claim your HCP. Method

front of you. Then on to the next platform to your right. Now
face downstream and you should see a very narrow ledge to your

climb up the ladder there. Grab another chicken that's up there

of stones, then hugging the wall run behind the waterfall and
light both of those torches. If you manage to get them all you'll
get a HCP that will appear in a chest behind the waterfall.

Hylia lab. Return as adult Link and ride the Magic Leaf platform
up to on top of the lab, then climb the ladder there to get a HCP.

float down to a platform that's to the right of the bridge and on
the opposite bank (from where you enter the valley). Then you can
walk up the ledge to the point closest to the water fall and jump
behind it, then climb a ladder to the HCP. Method 2(BL): Use the

platform. Then plant a magic bean in the soil by the cow. Then

11: The Magic Beans and where to put them.
Magic Beans can be planted by young Link in soft soil. Soft soil
looks like a square of light dirt with a hole in the middle. When
a bean is planted by Young Link, it will transform into a magic
moving platform for adult Link. These magic moving leaf platforms
are very useful. Magic Beans can be bought from a character near
the entrance to Zora's River. It costs 10 rupees for the first
bean and the price goes up 10 every bean you buy. Also, every
soft soil spot except the one next to the Magic Bean merchant has
a gold skulltula in it. Drop a bottle of bugs on the soft soil to
get it. It doesn't matter whether or not you've already planted a
bean there.
There are 10 spots to plant beans, and as such you can only buy 10
beans.
Soft soil locations to plant Magic Beans:
- To the right of the shop in Kokiri forest. The shop is the
building with the red roof.
