It's not exactly known for jumping puzzles.</I> <br />Pretty weak of me to comment on a comment that's well over a year old, but I had a hell of a time trying to jump across some areas of Ocarina of Time. There was one dungeon puzzle where I was stuck for ages before realizing just which direction Link had to go in order to make the jump. Great game, though... unlike U8.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541174503724500787.post-48002517099757317362009-03-29T08:46:00.000-07:002009-03-29T08:46:00.000-07:00The bigger mystery is, who the hell first figured ...The bigger mystery is, who the hell first figured out to target that red glowing slice with the Skull of Quakes in the first place?Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07983995375035035215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541174503724500787.post-10587547505141635902008-03-17T01:38:00.000-07:002008-03-17T01:38:00.000-07:00The Skull of Quakes thing is sort of supposed to b...The Skull of Quakes thing is sort of supposed to be a subplot that starts with a letter in a barrel near the execution scene at the beginning, addressed from Swordproof Vittek.

I'm guessing i had the pre-patch version when i played as a youngin' as i remember being confused for a week and eventually having to find a walkthrough and realizing that i'd already finished the part, i just didn't know it because the game never told me exactly where to go and didn't tell me what to get and didn't tell me that I had got what i needed once i got it. Urgh. I also remember the necromancy section being disproportionately larger than any other section of the game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541174503724500787.post-70453431928575117672007-12-21T05:31:00.000-08:002007-12-21T05:31:00.000-08:00Have you ever even played Zelda?

Lets see, extremely expensive reagents to produce a semi-crappy effect, and then every time you want to check the spell by clicking on the book the avatar attempts to cast the spell, even if you don't have enough reagents (and ruining the ones you do have).<BR/><BR/>Batwing (~50 coins) + Dragon blood (~80 coins) + Newt Eye (~30 coins) = The spell of "Confusion," which temporarily pauses your enemies...<BR/><BR/>...or you can stick a pile of dirt (free) and a piece of wood (also free) in a bag and become an invulnerable bad-ass.
