Hunt through the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild to recreate pictures taken by other players.

Community Guidelines

  1. How to take a picture: When you find your desired location, take a screenshot using the screenshot button. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE PRO HUD ENABLED!
  2. How to upload your picture: You can export your picture either by transferring it to your smart device by following this guide, uploading it to a social media site and downloading it from there, or by using a microSD card to transfer it to your computer. Upload your picture directly, or link the direct image URL if using an image hosting site.
  3. No easy to find locations: Try to present a challenge to your fellow Scavengers. A picture of Hyrule Castle taken from Hyrule Fields, for example, is too easy.
  4. Mark your spoilers: Any posts that have major storyline spoilers (e.g., Major bosses or DLC content) must be marked as a spoiler.
  5. How to submit a guess: When you find the location you think the picture was taken at, take a screenshot using the screenshot button. Make sure the Pro HUD is enabled, and that the minimap is included. Upload your picture to an image hosting site (preferably Imgur), and link it in the comments of the post.
  6. No off-topic links: Only pictures of in-game locations are allowed. Any off-topic content will be removed.
  7. Be kind: Remember the human on the other side. Offensive content will not be tolerated.

Welcome to [email protected]! In this community, you post pictures of interesting locations you find on your journey throughout Hyrule, and others try to find where they are!


Posting a new picture

  • Take a screenshot of your location using the Switch's screenshot button. Make sure you have the map disabled by changing the HUD mode to Pro.
  • To upload your picture, you could either:
  1. transfer it to your smart device by following this guide,
  2. post it to a social media website, and link the image directly in your post, or
  3. use a microSD card to transfer it to another device, and upload it to your post.

This article explains both of these methods.

  • You could include a clue in your title or in a comment to help the Scavengers looking for your picture.

Hunting

  • Try to find the exact location of the picture linked in the post, and take a screenshot there. Make sure you have the map enabled by changing the HUD mode to Normal.
  • Upload your picture to Imgur, and post the link in a comment.
  • Even if the picture has already been found, you can still participate in the hunt and look for it.
  • If you were the first to find a picture successfully, you will receive a point. Points will be tracked internally, and until a "user flair" system is added, there will be a public leaderboard.

Other Guidelines

  • If the picture is a spoiler (e.g., a major boss, or DLC content), please mark it as such.
  • Don't post any off-topic content. This includes generic BOTW content that isn't necessarily a location picture to be found, memes, META posts, and other content that does not relate to the game.
  • Be kind. Remember the human on the other side. Offensive content will not be tolerated.
