Zelda A Link to the Past - Lv7 Turtle Rock

My complete Level 7: Turtle Rock walkthrough for The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Played in real time on Snes9x v1.43 rerecording with rerecords used to optimize video length.

Equipment checklist: 18 3/4 Hearts, Golden Sword, Silver Arrows, 1/2 Magic, Quake

- The Golden Sword and Silver Arrows can be obtained by buying a super bomb at the bomb shop north of the Swamp Palace and using it to blow open the cracked wall in the Pyramid. Inside is a fairy pond where you can upgrade your sword and bow.
- The 1/2 Magic upgrade can be obtained by jumping down the well next to the smithy's shop in Kakariko Village and sprinkling some magic powder on the statue within.
- The Quake medallion is needed to open the entrance to Turtle Rock. It can be obtained by going to the far northeast corner of the Dark World, where the entrance to Zora's Waterfall is in the Light World, and throwing something into the ring of stones in the water there.

[00:26] Laser eyes
There are two types of laser eyes, half open and fully open. Half open eyes, such as this one, will only shoot if you face them, so back out of the doorway. Fully open eyes will shoot at you regardless.

[04:33] Light World detour #1
Use the Magic Mirror to return to the Light World on this ledge. Inside the cave is a Piece of Heart, which will bump you up to 19 hearts if you entered with 18 3/4.

[06:50] Dark platform maze
This room can sap your hearts quickly if you don't know the correct path to take. From the start, hold in right at the first intersection and then keep holding in down to reach the switch. From there, follow the path as shown in the video to reach the door.

[07:32] Side blocking
Hold out your sword for a spin attack to protect your side from the eye lasers as you walk over and up to these chests.

[08:06] Light World detour #2
Warping back to the Light World on this ledge and entering the cave will let you grab two fairies. Also, if you're playing the GBA version, exiting a re-entering the dungeon here will act as a save point that you can restart from.

[09:20] Boss: Trinexx
In this video I use the speed kill method of defeating Trinexx to save time. To see the normal method of beating it, along with a written strategy, take a look at my other no damage video:

where do you go to get extra bombs and arrows? I only have 35

[Desbreko]

@knightkitt90 Toss rupees into the Pond of Hapiness in the cave on the island in the middle of Lake Hylia.

[AndrewDaniele87]

what do you use to hit the switches if you don't have full hearts and can't reach them?

[Desbreko]

@AndrewDaniele87 Red boomerang, hookshot, bow, or Cane of Somaria.

[FiveStarJah]

Whoever designed the maze at 06:50 is a fucking asshole.

[Desbreko]

@Tya32 It only shoots when you have full hearts.

[EknineEd1385]

that room at 6:50 is the most annoying retarded room in thw whole dungeon. everything else is really easy.

[korydak1lla]

Your fluency of the controls and knowledge of the dungeon is unreal man, very nice!

[Redranger11111]

[Desbreko]
