I didn't know that!

I didn't know that 5 games came with the download of Zelda Classic. That's realy cool! Now, I can play the original Zelda on my computer! And it's so much bigger and close. I don't know if it will be easier to beat, but I could try. And what's the third file on the first page? Beta? Or just another quest? This is so cool 😃 !

The quests that come with ZC are, the original first quest, the original second quest, ZC's official third quest(Enter your name as Alpha to play it), the test quest for that version(I.E., 210test.qst), the BS first quest and example first, example second and example BS first quests.

Third file?
Do you mean 3rd.qst? That's an unofficial third quest made by Alphadawg a few years back.
To unlock it, you can either beat 1st and 2nd.qst, or enter your name as "ALPHA".

It is pretty hard, though, so if you're not sure about beating 1st.qst, practice a bit more, and beat that (and maybe 2nd) before trying it.

No, that's not Alphadawg's unofficial third quest, that's the official Zelda Classic third quest, which IS by alphadawg, but it uses the same overworld as the original two quests. Alphadawg's unofficial third quest uses his own overworld. And also, in version 2.10, you CAN'T continue a quest after beating it to play the next one. I.E., if you beat the first quest and then start it again, you'll be playing the second quest, but it starts you in the very top-left corner of the top left screen in the overworld, so you can't actually play it. You HAVE to enter your name as Zelda or Alpha to play the second and third quests, for now.

Sorry about that, it is the official one. It is a bit confusing, though, having two "3rd quests" by one person. 😊

Oi, I know. Couldn't he have named his unofficial third quest something else? Like "Not the official ZC third quest!" Lol.

Heh... I remember being around back in the day, and IIRC, he made the offical one after his unoffical one. I remember it was a contest for everyone to make a third quest for ZC and apparently Alphadawg won, confusing the literature for all eternity. ^_^
