Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 8

Now that you know where the secret location of Level 7 is in Legend of Zelda, you need to find a bush and use your candle on it to reveal the hidden stairs leading to Level 8 Dungeon.



To locate this bush, from the starting screen of the game, just go up once and then to the right 7 or 8 screens and you'll find the bush to use candle on.

Items to locate in Level 8 Dungeon:

The Magical Key, and the Book of Magic

Dungeon Walkthrough

Once inside, go right to grab key and then go left three times to get Book of Magic. Backtrack to starting room then go up twice and then right to get Compass and then go back left until you can no longer go left, clearing each room along the way getting a key in each. From the furthest left room go right once then up twice to get hint room on location of Level 9 dungeon: Spectacle Rock is an entrance to Death."

Go back down then to the right, then up. Remember this room with two fireball spewing statues, you'll need to come back here after getting Magical key. From room with statues, go up to get map, then up again and to the right for stair case leading to Magical key.

Come back and go up for bombs, then down and left for more bombs in case you need them along the way to boss for bombing walls or for boss fight. Either way, go back to room with those two statues you noted, and then go to right.

Go down stairs and you are now one room away from the boss.

In the first room you exit from stairs, bomb a hole in the wall to the north and enter boss room. The boss of level 8 Dungeon is a 4 headed Gleeok.



Boss strategy for Gleeoks:

Gleeok fights are all the same, except the harder ones just have more heads! You fight this Gleeok the same way you fought the Gleeok in Level 4 Dungeon. Dodge his head attacks and swipe with sword. If you have full health, keep your distance and shoot your sword, however, if you do not, run in and swipe and try not to get hit.

Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 7

Level 7, The Demon, is where you finally get the Red Candle, as well as, use that piece of meat you bought so long ago and haven't known what to do with.

Where is Level 7 anyway?

Level 7 entrance is hidden. You need the flute to reveal it. To find it, go to the only fairy-like pond screen that does not have a fairy. It is to the West of the fairy in the West. Simply, play your flute and the water will disappear, revealing the entrance to Level 7 dungeon in Legend of Zelda.



Once you are inside Level 7, go up, and bomb a hole in the wall to the left, there is a key if you go right four rooms, you can get it and come back to this room, then go left and down to room with snakes, get that key too then go up twice and take a right. Skip the door to the north with the three dodongos, it is a -100 rupees trick room.

Go right and then up twice, bomb a hole in the wall to the right and enter to get key. Go left twice and then up, give the hungry guy the meat and continue north to get the map.

Use key to go right and then up and right to get a key, back left then down and bomb a hole in the wall to the right and push up and left bock to take stairs to get candle. The Red Candle is used to burn the bush to get into the Level 8 Dungeon.

Item: Red Candle



Now that you have Red Candle its time to make our way to the boss of Level 7 Dungeon in Legend of Zelda, another Gleeok. From the room with stairs to candle go right twice then up and to the right. In the room with hands you need to push center block to reveal stairs to room next to boss. Take stairs and bomb hole in the wall to the right and defeat the Gleeok to get your heart container and triforce piece.

Boss Strategy: Gleeok

Fighting Gleeoks are all the same. Aim from far and shoot your sword if you are at full life, or run in and swipe with your sword. Do this until you beat the Gleeok and get ready for Level 8.

Rygar Walkthrough

Rygar is a fantasy-themed action-adventure platform game developed by Tecmo for the Nintendo Entertainment System that was released on April 14, 1987. Despite the lack of a password or save feature, the game can provide hours of gaming fun.

Today I slapped in my old Rygar NES game cart and decided to start this walkthrough to help myself, as well as, others navigate through the lands of Argool as quickly as possible, while still exploring as much of the game as possible.

Starting Point: Sueru Mountain



Anyone who has played this game remembers this classic starting screen and since there is nothing to do except run to the right, do so until you come upon the door leading to the next area. You can bounce on enemies freezing them momentarily, and try out one of the coolest weapons ever created in a video game, the Diskarmor!

Continue going to the right until you come to Gran Mountain. Climb up the third rope and run to the left to find the door to Garloz.

Go to Garloz for Grappling Weapon



Garloz is an overhead view area which allows you to travel to different areas as you gain the items needed to reach the final area of the game, The Sky Castle.

First item on the list is the Grappling Weapon.

Travel north and take the first left in Garloz. Continue upward and defeat the tree to pass and continue north until you see the Tiger door, enter it and get the Grappling Weapon.

Go back the way you came into Garloz from Gran Mountain. This time go to the right and then north around water and continue to East. Then go north until you find another Tiger Door. This one leads to Rolsa.

Travel to Rolsa



Rolsa is where the tower to the final area is located, however at this time you cannot reach this top area without the Crossbow, so for now continue to Eruga's Forest. Use the grappling Weapon to climb up and just continue to the right until you find the door to Eruga's Forest.

Get Wind Pulley in Eruga's Forest

This area contains your first boss encounter, and is also where you get the Wind Pulley which will help you reach the next areas of the game. When you cannot go to the right anymore, try using the grappling Weapon and climbing upwards and you'll eventually find a branch to grab on and help you advance to the boss, Eruga.



After you defeat Eruga, grab the Wind Pulley and backtrack to Garloz area.

This time from where you came in from Gran Mountain, simply go left and then down. Continue south and use your Wind Pulley to cross the water and then just go West until you reach the door to Primeval Mountain.

Travel to Primeval Mountain



The flying enemies in this next area can be aggravating, but just continue going to the right and you will find Sagila's Cave.

Get the Crossbow from Sagila's Cave

Once inside Sagila's Cave, just go right until you come to the outdoor area with a sunset in the background. Keep going to the right and you'll find another door back inside the cave. Enter it, and follow the path down to Sagila. Use your Grappling Weapon to climb down and make your way to boss.



Defeating Sagila awards you the Crossbow. After you kill Sagila enter the door to claim your prize, The Crossbow. The Crossbow is used to throw a line you can climb between two points to access the final areas of the game.

To Ragua Sando and Lapis

Travel Back to Garloz and go to where the entrance to Rolsa Valley is located, but instead go East until you find the Tiger Door leading to Ragua Sando.

Ragua Sando is a path that leads to lapis, just enter and go right until you reach the Floating Isles.



You will need to use your Grappling Weapon to reach the end of this stage, so when you can no longer go right, try climbing upward to keep going up and to the east then down to fight the boss, Belzar. You get the Coat of Arms for defeating Belzar.

Dorago's Palace

Go back to Garloz, north of where the entrance to Primeval Mountain is located. You will find a tree stump there. Face northward and stand near the stump and press B to use your crossbow and make your way to Dorago's Palace.



Navigating Dorago's Palace is not difficult, just make your way east and then north. Cross the gaps with your crossbow and follow the path around to the west and cross another gap. Continue to the west and then go north, eventually you'll find two rows of columns leading to doorway to Dorago. The prize for beating Dorago is the Indora's Armor.



Back to Gran Mountain

Head to the top of Gran Mountain and travel to the right. Use your crossbow and keep going until you find the door to Tower of Garba.

Tower of Garba



The Tower of Garba is a straight-forward climb up the tower facing a mini boss on each level leading up to Deathpigor. Simply fight your way up to the top to get Pegasus Flute which is needed to get to Sky Castle.

Climb To Top of Tower in Rolsa



Venture back to Rolsa Valley and climb to the top of the tower that was previously unreachable. Once you are at the top, play Pegasus Flute to make the doorway appear.



Travel to the right and north to find the entrance once you are at Sky Castle. I recommend grabbing the life potion which is south of the room with 4 doors. After doing so head to the left and follow the path around to the final boss of Rygar, Ligar!



Do your best to avoid getting hit and just blast him as fast as you can between hits. Congrats, you just beat the game Rygar, and saved the world of Argool. Everyone is happy. :)

Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 6

Back on track after the previous Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 5 entry. I have finished beating the original Legend of Zelda for walkthroughs, and have only a few more dungeons to post.

Enter Dungeon Level 6 then go up one room and defeat the Wizzrobes and get the key. Go left and do the same. Go north and then use key to go left. Use key to go north again from the room with fireball spitting statues.



North of this room is hint room: "South of arrow mark hides a secret." Once you get secret, go back south and then left. Use hidden stairs after pushing up on block behind the trap in the middle on the left. Here is where you find the ladder.

Go back to the hint room, and bomb the wall to the right. Grab the map and continue right and blow a hole in the north wall in the room to the right of the map room. Grab the compass and in the next room push up on the far left middle row block. Once you take stairs you are close to the boss, but you must first defeat a three headed Gleeok before reaching Gohma, the final boss of the level 6 dungeon in Legend of Zelda.

After you take the stairs, you can bomb the southern wall to get a key, but you must return to the stair room afterwards to continue to the right. From the stair room, go right and defeat three-headed Gleeok.

Continue East and push left block to reveal a third staircase. Before you reach Gohma, in the next room you face a Manhandla type of monster. Use bombs to defeat it quickly, then equip your bow.

The reason I don't have a screenshot of Gohma is because you can kill him so easily, I did it with one shot and wasn't able to get a screenshot of it, I did it so quickly! Just aim one good arrow and hit in the eye and you win.

I fired a single arrow as soon as I entered the room on accident and killed him with one shot, so this is not a hard boss once you know how to kill Gohma. Pick up your heart container and grab your triforce piece. And get ready for Level 7..

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

After all the time one can spend running around in Hyrule in the original Legend of Zelda, there is always time for something as engaging as The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess




In regards to the story line, you know, it's the same old thing.

When an evil darkness enshrouds the land of Hyrule, a young farm boy named Link must awaken the hero and the animal within. When Link travels to the Twilight Realm, he transforms into a wolf and must scour the land with the help of a mysterious girl named Midna. Besides his trusty sword and shield, Link will use his bow and arrows by aiming with the Wii Remote controller, fight while on horseback and use a wealth of other items, both new and old.

But at least its fun using the Wii remote.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

Dragon Warrior Mountain Cave

Since Dragon Warrior Revisited, I've wanted to play a little bit of the old NES Dragon Warrior classic every now and then when I have a little spare time.

The first dungeon you face with monsters to fight in Dragon Warrior is the Mountain Cave.

The entrance to Mountain Cave can be found here, just West of the starting castle.



Before you enter though make sure you brought along some torches so you can find your way around in the dark, some herbs to heal yourself, as well as, full magic points so you can either cast HURT on enemies or HEAL spell on yourself.

Inside you will find treasure chests that give you an herb, a torch, some gold, and the fighters ring.

Here is the map to find your way around Rock Mountain cave



Do this dungeon over and over to increase your experience levels and your gold. Save up to get the Hand Axe in Kol and the Large Shield in Garingham.

These old NES dungeons cave us some of our first sense of wandering around in a Fantasy world and then stumbling upon a doorway into a creepy underground dungeon. Be careful to time your heal spells and know when its time to get out of there. Use the map I made and you'll find Mountain Cave to be fun, but not much of a threat to the Dragon Warrior!

Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 5

Now that you found the Ladder in Level 4 Dungeon, there is a heart container on the far east of the map that you can reach, go get it before doing Level 5. You should actually have all five of the hidden heart containers now. If you didn't grab them all, do so now before proceeding any further.

After you get all 5 heart containers, make your way to level 5 dungeon and as usual, bring along a life potion and bombs!

Check out the Legend of Zelda page for heart container locations.

Legend of Zelda Dungeon level 5, The Lizard



The entrance to level 5 dungeon can be found by going into the rocky area to the east one scroll from the waterfall. However, in order to reach the secret dungeon you need to go "up" the ladder 4 times. By touching one of the Armos outside reveals a secret entrance into Level 5, however its the same as entering the normal way :)

Once inside, go right to the room filled with Pols Voices (bouncing mouse looking things) and grab the key.

From here you can either save yourself a key and bomb the northern wall of this room to get the hint room "Digdogger hates certain kind of sound" or you can go back to the entrance room and go north to the room with 3 Gibdos (mummies) and get the key.

The room to the right of this is the hint room so you can skip. However, our first mission should be to get the flute, because you need it to defeat the boss anyway. So bomb the wall to the left, and enter the room with 5 mummies, defeat them and bomb the wall to the left again and get ready for a challenge. This room contains 5 blue Darknuts, which can pose a problem for many. You must defeat them and move the block as usual and make your way to next room by going down the stairs. The stairway will take you to the most northern part of the dungeon, you can either go left or down.

Items: The Flute is to the left, in another room with 5 blue darknuts. Defeat them and move the only block in the room to reveal the staircase leading to flute. Now that you have the flute, you can defeat Digdogger, the final boss of level 5. First, go back to the room to the right and go down once to a room filled with bats, get the key. You CAN bomb the wall to the right, but it takes you one of the "I bet you'd like more bombs" room, skip it, just make your way back to the staircase and make your way back to the very first room with Mummies (one room up from the entrance).

The room above this has 3 Dodongos in it, room to the left has a key protected by 5 Zols (slime blobs) which you can easily defeat. To the north of the room with 3 Dodongos is the map and to the right is another room with Zols. Go north to the room with 5 mummies and get the key, proceed north and defeat 3 red Darknuts to get the compass. The next room to the north has a couple mummies, 2 bats, and 2 Pols Voice. I recommend using arrows against Pols Voice and quickly taking out mummies with sword, switch to Boomerang and take out bats or slow mummies down.

Continue west to a room with 5 more mummies to get another key. Now, set your B weapon to bow and arrow for next room. It contained 5 Pols Voices and the easiest way to defeat them quickly is to shoot arrow through more than one at a time, so as soon as you enter room shoot as many as you can. This is backed up by the hint room to the north of this (reached by bombing wall) that tells you "Secret power is said to be in the arrow."

Exit the hint room and get ready for boss. Be sure to equip the Flute before entering the next room.



Tactics: As soon as you enter, blow on the flute. This will reduce the size of Digdogger and allow you to hit him. The only way to defeat him is to use the flute, if you are at full health or have life potion Digdogger shouldn't be much of a threat after using Flute. Grab your triforce piece and get ready for level 6.

Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 4

Unlike the other Legend of Zelda dungeons, Level 4 is only accessible via the raft you get in Level 3 dungeon.

More dungeon strategy guides and maps on the Legend of Zelda page



Items: In this dungeon you get the ladder, which allows you to cross single water paths, such as rivers. The ladder can be used to successfully dodge many creatures along the rest of the adventure so learn to use it to your advantage in fighting, not just crossing water.

In this dungeon you are also given the clue to walk into the waterfall.

Hints: Upon entering the first room, immediately go left to the room with the Keese (bats) and get the key. Proceed back to entrance room and then go north into room with bouncing Vires.

To the right of this room is more Vires guarding the Compass. After grabbing the compass go back to first room with Vires and go North into room with more bats and another key. Go left, fight off these Vires and then proceed north into room with Vols (blobs) and a key.

Before fighting the boss you want to grab the ladder, so go east, this room has the map. Bomb the northern wall of the room with the map, this room contains free rupees. Go back into room with map and go left, then south, then east until you reach room with ladder.

To get to boss just go back the way you came (two rooms to west) then start going north until you reach room with the Manhandla type monster, defeat it and go north. This room has the hint to "walk into the waterfall."



Time to make your way to Gleeok the final boss.

Continue east two rooms, then south one. Defeat the Vires in this room to open the door to boss. You can also bomb the eastern wall in the room with the free rupees if you want to avoid the trap room.

Gleeok is two rooms east of the free rupee room. Defeat Gleeok and get your triforce piece.

Tactics: The easiest way to defeat Gleeok is to shoot your sword at him if you are full health (don't forget life potions) or you can just swing your sword at his heads and dodge his fireballs. However, once you hit him a few times, one head will come off and start flying around the room shooting fireballs too, so keep moving and keep swiping that sword. Simply avoid the head flying around the room and keep aiming for Gleeok until you defeat him.

Legend of Zelda Dungeon Level 3

After defeating Dodongo in the Level 2 Dungeon in Legend of Zelda, I wanted to get the raft as quickly as possible so I could get the next heart container. Level 3 will present problems for quite a few players, but with some practice and good sword swinging, bomb placing, and boomerang throwing, I was victorious yet again!

Need to get your own copy of this legendary game? Check out the Legend of Zelda page



From the starting point I went north and then west to cross the bridge of the river. I continued west a short distance and then went south, and I came across the entrance to Level 3 Dungeon. Make sure to bring some bombs and a potion just in case.

Once inside, the first room only allows you to go left. Do so, and grab the key in the next room, then go north and grab yet another key and kill the slimes. The next room you encounter red Darknuts, you must hit them from the back or side, they are immune to your attacks from the front. Did you bring some bombs? If not, there should be some you can get in this room. Since I wanted to get the raft first, I needed to continue west from this room which is where you find the compass. Avoid the traps and kill the bats with your boomerang.After this you will face two difficult rooms before the raft. Both are filled with red Darknuts and can cause some problems for players. Try your best to avoid taking any damage and just keep moving and stabbing away at them and eventually you will bring them all down. Clear the first room of darknuts and then go south. This room will have 8 red darknuts and a staircase leading to raft. After getting the raft, simply go back the way you came but continue north and grab another key and begin your travel east. You may find more bombs along the way and you will need them for the boss, so pick them up.Once you are in the room above the very first room with darknuts, north of this is a room with moveable block and you get the hint from old man: Did you get the sword from the old man on top of the waterfall? Go west and defeat the bats and grab key. Now its time to fight boss, travel back the way you came and if you havent done so now, go back to the first room with darknuts and bomb the wall, which will take you to another room with 3 darknuts, in the room north of this is the map, get it.



In the room with the map, you can bomb the right wall to enter boss room.

Tactics: Manhandla can be defeated using a sword, however, its more difficult than doing it with bombs. Placing bombs as close to the center of Manhandla as possible will take out more than one of his mouths at once, simply do your best to place bombs near him before they explode and you will bring him down fast. After defeating him, grab the heart container and go north of this room for your triforce piece. :)
