Hi everyone, for those of you don't remember me, I was semi-active in 2004 and 2005, learning about making quests. Reclamation is the result of many periods of off-and-on work (I didn't work on it at all from mid 2005 to early 2007).
Reclamation is a full-length quest (9 dungeons, 1 16x8 overworld, 3 mini-dungeons) designed in the Pure tileset. It's the product of about one year of actual work, although I started making it in 2004.
The focus of Reclamation is on gameplay above all else. There aren't too many custom graphics, fancy ZC tricks, or heart-wrenching storylines. However, I hope that the overall design of the quest (the dungeon design in particular) delivers a great Zelda experience. 😊
The difficulty should be comparable to some of Mr. Z's quests, like Link's Birthday DX. It should definitely be easier than quests like MMDWR😃C and Hidden Duality.
Story!
The story of Reclamation begins as Link defeats Ganon (the circumstances behind this fight are unknown). When Link lands the final blow on Ganon, he suddenly blacks out, and falls into a strange land...

There are 2 difficulties; Easy Mode is for people who haven't played Zelda in a long time. If you're a PureZC member, you'll most likely want to play Normal Mode.
The quest should be hosted by PureZC and AGN soon, hopefully.
Have fun! I'll be monitoring the boards a bit more, now, so post away!
I already processed the submission at ZC.com. PureZC takes too long.
While there are a few tile errors around the overworld, I'm impressed with the trickery in Level 1 so far. I had a busy day yesterday, so I became too fatigued to finish it. I also like the amount of adventure you allow before Level 1.
Wait til you see level 2 Pineconn. I just finished it. Had me going in circles for a while....LOL
I'm cautious to play this under 777, as I'm assuming that bug with the guys isn't just present in my quest.
EDIT: A few suggestions for a possible future version:
1)No slashable grass?
2)Can't walk behind houses, torches, etc.
3)Octoroks on the overworld occasionally spawn on unwalkable combos or weird places.
4)Make Link re-spawn in the boss room- I haven't been able to beat the first boss and have become frustrated from having to walk back so far.
Anyway, the quest looks good.
Where is the candle? I'm in the knights cave having trouble beating the 2 headed geelok. My worst enemy to beat especially with a wooden sword. Do I get a sword update before or after this boss? I only have 4 hearts.
The Knight's Cave has the White Sword. I had 5 hearts when I got it but I don't know if it's possible to have it earlier. The candle is in level 3
Thanks ms zelda lady. I got the candle and finally the sword. I went and did lv3 first so I ended up with 5 hearts. I'm having trouble finding the boss is lv4. I've been all over and can't find the way to the boss door. Have seen it. Can anyone give me some direcitons on the correct path?
Hm, those screenshots look interesting. I'll be sure to play this when I get the chance.

The guy in the dungeon tells you that you can walk behind some torches...Think about what could possibly be behind a torch, and why it would help you.
Further hint: The torch you need to walk behind is on the first floor (the floor that you enter the dungeon from).
Thanks for the help. I beat lv4 and am trying to find lv5. I'm really enjoying this quest. 😊
I am liking this quest. I am past level 5 and am wondering where level 6 is. I have 10 hearts and went through the museum of war but don't have anything to kill of the gleeok so i seem to be stuck. Should i have the blue armor too? where is level 6?
jambo:
You need an item in level 6 to kill that gleeok. It's in the Resting Grounds, if you can't find it talk to an info guy for a hint.
You need the hookshot to get the blue mail.
But where do you get the hookshot :shrug:
Do i need the second glove? i found the cave that may go there, but there is one path blocked off i can't take. Hookshot would be great to have too.
edit:
NVM found it!
How do you get the mirror shield? I have seen where it it but cannot find the key or teleport to get it.
The hookshot is in level 8.
The teleport to the mirror shield is in level 9; if you're familiar with ZQuest you might figure out why. So don't worry that you can't get to it from level 8.
Where is the hammer and book. I just finished lv6 and got 2 items but not these.
Thanks
Hammer--level 7
Book--level 8
Help needed..... Where is lv3????
Thanks sis, I found lv3 and have now gone to lv4. I am having some problems finding the last key. I have the master key and bow and arrow.
I just started this quest.
Great so far.
But a question: Am I supposed to be able to get an endless supply of Rupees and buy the Lens of truth before level 1?:surprise:
Hi
I just started this quest, great so far.
But a question: Am I supposed to be able to get an endless supply of Rupees and the Lens of Truth before level 1?
mcrawford--Level 3 is in the Wounded Dunes.
aaaaajon--Not really, ms_zelda_lady found an infinite rupee trick that I fixed within 1 day of the release. If you downloaded the quest the second it came out, that trick might still be in the game...oops.
Although, you can get an endless supply of rupees anyway if you really wanted to, by slashing bushes over and over...
Actually, I just downloaded it today from this link http://www.medievaltech.com/reclamation/. given in your quest description. I downloaded the easy version if that's any help.
Did you fix the bug in that version?
Theres a house with an endless supply of 15 rupees above the lost woods where the first level is.
For some reason, I seem to have to post twice before my post appears here. Weird.
Anyway, I actually downloaded the quest today from the link in the quest details page.
It was the easy version, so maybe you haven't fixed the bug in that one yet?
It's a house above the first level with 15 rupees that keep appearing.

I finally had a chance today to finish level 5. I got both treasures and the boss but there's one key room towards the top on the right side that I never got to. Is it something important or just a key in that room? Where is level 6? I don't know where to go next.

This is the THIRD time I have tried to post this. My posts just disappear for some reason.
I downloaded the quest just today from the link in the quest details page. It was the easier version, and the bug is still there. A house above the first level with an infinite supply of 15 rupees each time. I love this quest by the way. I am impressed that I can explore such a vast area even before finding level 2. Nice job.
ms_zelda_lady: That's the result of another bug, you probably used the ladder to skip a locked door in the bottom left of level 5. I'm guessing that the room you didn't reach has a key, so if you want, you can get that key and have an extra one for the rest of the quest. Someone else found that bug before you, though, so it should already be fixed and uploaded on the website.
aaaaajon: Damn, you're right, I fixed it in the normal version but not the easy mode. I've been trying to be good about fixing bugs in both versions at once, but it's an annoying thing to remember...
Sorry about all the bugs, I was only able to get one beta tester who had the time to test, and he isn't very familiar with ZC, so he didn't know how to break the game properly.
EDIT: I didn't answer ms_zelda_lady's other question!
Level 6 is in the Resting Grounds. The info guy there will give you a small hint about its location.
I'm in the Desecrated Tomb basement 1 in the top left room on the map. I got one key but I need another to get to a treasure box. Where's the 2nd key?
The cross is in level 6, but it only lets you see invisible enemies, not invisible blocks. You'll have to trust your instincts to solve the puzzle!
