How is this quest so good? I played it and it wasnt what I expected! It would have seemed that it was one of those great games, but all it was, was a cheap imitation of Link To The Past! Sorry for getting you down, but thats what I feel.

Dan. Congratulations on this great quest, i have finally finished it and have really enjoyed myself. Hope you have some more quests coming up.

xDragoNGameRx: That block you are referring to is a red herring. It does not move and there is nothing you can do with it. Search some more. 😊

Thunderkitty: Sorry you didn't like it that much. 😞 I didn't try to "base" it on LttP or any other game. The graphics are simple but I think I had a few fresh ideas. And it's not buggy. 😊

kiwimum: Thanks for your kind words. Actually my brother is working on a quest right now, and I'm putting in a little effort towards puzzle design, music, and "neat ideas." He's using the Pure Tileset and things are looking GREAT. Expect to see it sometime around this summer. (He's currently working on Level 3.)

I cannot figure out how to get the key needed to continue. The progress I made so far is I completed level 1. Went into level 2 and got the blue candle. Cannot finish level 2 until I get the raft of the ladder. Found level 3 and cannot goto the first room until I get the key. Exactly where do I go from the place that requires the key?

Dan Furst 28 Oct 2005, 03:51

What you are calling level 2 is not level 2. What you are calling level 3 is level 2. Use the number of statues on the side of the entrance room to determine the level number (palace of Treasures is "#10", Palace of Sand is #2).

Go due west from the Palace of Sand to find the key needed to enter it. It's the screen with the peahats.

I am in the Palace Of Water. Now, I am stuck. I went to the screen where there are 4 blocks and a door I cannot open. I tried to move all four blocks but none would move. Also, I tried to bomb any walls. Could not do that either. I do not have any keys. There is a spot where I need a raft but until I can get through that door, I cannot get to the raft. How do I open that door?

Dan Furst 28 Oct 2005, 06:21

The room with 4 blocks that you are describing actually has 6 blocks. Four "regular" and 2 statues. That should be a big enough hint. 😊

musictopia10 28 Oct 2005, 18:30

I am in the Fire Palace. I cannot seem to continue unless I get the bow so I can shoot the statue. I found the hint but it just said to appreciate them. I don't what to do with that hint. I think I need the bow and arrows to get them. I have the arrows but cannot find the bow. If there is another way to get them out of the way, then how? I tried bombs, moving them, using the candle and using the boomerang. None works. I don't have any other items at this time.

Dan Furst 28 Oct 2005, 19:19

The Goriya statues seem to be a stopping point for many people. I'll reiterate what I've said before more clearly: You can't use any items/sword on the Goriya statues, and they can't be pushed/moved/broken/anything. But they are heavily significant. You need to STOP and appreciate them.

That should do it. 😊

I'm in level 8 and I am also at a standstill not being able to push one block. I have the level 2 glove and it still won't move. I have the master key now but can't get anywhere else. PLEASE HELP

Which level do I search. Level 2 or Level 8. I have looked at the walls of each of these and cannot find anything that gets me where I need to go. I have gone into the water in the water level and got no where. Please help. 😞

Dan Furst 28 Oct 2005, 21:31

That block you are referring to is a red herring. It does not move and there is nothing you can do with it. Search some more.

musictopia10 28 Oct 2005, 23:00

How do I stop and appreciate them? I tried staying in the same spot for a long time but that did not work. I tried to go up to it and stopped for a long time. Also, I tried moving around alot as well. One spot for example that has that statue is right next to where the raft spot.

ms_zelda_lady 28 Oct 2005, 23:34

I tried to send you a pm but you don't accept them. Just stay in the room long enough and something will happen.

I am in Shadow Palace. I have found 4 of the keys. Cannot find the other 2 keys as needed to get the hammer. Where are the keys located?

Bomber 29 Oct 2005, 14:12

Soooooooooooooooo........... how do you get to the boss key doorway in the Fire Palace when only one of the blocks moves???

Dan Furst 29 Oct 2005, 17:09

musictopia10: The guy in the top right part of the "head" of the Shadow Palace has the hint you need. Pay attention to the wording. Note there are bomb walls in this palace, too. The white sword is in the Palace of Treasures.

Bomber: That block moves more than once.

musictopia10 29 Oct 2005, 17:16

The hint said something about dark rooms. How does dark rooms have anything to do with keys? Does that mean that every room that is originally black for sure has a key? Or does it mean that the 2 eyes on the map has the keys?

musictopia10 29 Oct 2005, 20:18

What level is the next one after the shadow one? Is it the spirit palace? If not, then how do I get to the next level?

"Thunderkitty: Sorry you didn't like it that much. I didn't try to "base" it on LttP or any other game. The graphics are simple but I think I had a few fresh ideas. And it's not buggy."

Sorry about that Dan. I should have played it more then I did. It is pretty fun! Good Job, and thanks for not exploding on my comment, most people do that to newbies on what they say. You are one of those questmakers that really do care about their fans and...(If I make this any longer they would have to make it a TV show!)

All in all, thanks for this quest.

Bomber 31 Oct 2005, 13:30

I am one key from having gotten the necessary six to get the hammer. I know which room it is in, but it is the only one I can't access, or at least figure out how to... Look at these screen shots:

I need to get to the room south of here

This is where I have been

I have been unable to find out how to access that room for two days. I thought maybe you have to get into the right "eye" somehow, but I cant figure that out either

Dan Furst 31 Oct 2005, 15:17

The 6th key is not in that room. You understand the hint from the guy in the top right, correct? I would suggest starting from the entrance and double checking each dark room as you come to them.
