I conquered Koholint island finally! I really enjoyed my time playing Link’s Awakening. I can’t believe they fit a whole Legend of Zelda game on Gameboy! I really enjoyed it
I ended up getting stuck trying to get the bird key. I could not figure out how to get the flying rooster. I tried bombing the weather cock, lifting the weather cock, pulling, using the hook shot, using the magic rod, digging every tile in mabe village, getting the boomerang, giving back the boomerang, tried every key item I could think of. I ended up beating level 8 before level 7. I even made this map of the entire game in google sheets to try to figure it out.
Tap for spoiler
Turns out you can just push the statue
Oh well, I don’t count it as time waste. If anything else it was a great excuse to keep playing. I’ve never played a 3D Zelda before so I am looking forward to OoT
I’d love if you all would leave a hint or a message on the map I created, if you have the time. I think it’d be something really cool to share with new players, and it would make the hours I spent taking screenshots trying to figure out were Marin was feel less wasted (I was convinced she had something to do with the flying rooster)
