A Link Between Worlds Trivia

1. Who gives you the power gloves?

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Rosso

You get the Pegasus boots from the thief, Irene gives you a bell to get rides from her, and Yuga gives you Lorule (unintentionally). Yuga tries to trap you in a painting, but you escape, and Yuga leaves a dimensional crack.

Answer: Fire Rod

The Fire Rod is needed to melt a lot of ice in the Ice Ruins. It can be purchased from Ravio for a whopping 1200 rupees! The Ice Rod and Fire Rod are each more expensive than the other items you can purchase from Ravio by 400 rupees. The Ice Rod is needed to complete Turtle Rock. The Sand Rod is needed to complete the Desert Palace. The Tornado Rod is needed to complete the House of Gales.

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: Lorule

Lorule is brand new to the series, acting as a complete counterpart to Hyrule. It has its own goddesses, Triforce, and even its own relative Link and Zelda equivalents. The reason that the two kingdoms are brought together is due to Princess Hilda's aspirations to seize Hyrule's Triforce, as Lorule's Triforce was destroyed. The Dark Realm is the world we entered in "A Link to the Past" (SNES), which took place in the same Hyrule map as "A Link Between Worlds." Subrosia is the world we entered in "Oracle of Seasons" (Gameboy Advance), beneath the land of Holodrum. Labrynna is the land where our adventure took place in "Oracle of Ages" (Gameboy Advance).

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Your house

Mother Maiamai upgrades weapons, Lorule offers no basic tools, and Hyrule Castle offers no tools. The question asks about basic items.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Osfala

Osfala went in ahead of Link to the Eastern Palace, but was ultimately bested by Yuga and turned into a painting. We rescue him later on in the Thieves' Hideout in Lorule, at which time he recognizes that his fate is "merely" to be a sage. Ravio perhaps ought to have been a hero himself, as he is later shown to be Lorule's equivalent to Hyrule's Link. It is clear he lacks courage, as he escaped from Lorule only to lounge around in Link's house while Link is left to restore order to both worlds. Sahasrahla lives with his wife in Kakariko Village, and is identified as a very wise individual. He directs Link to the Eastern Palace, and mentions that Osfala was headed there himself. Dampe is, as always, the gravekeeper. He works in the graveyard near the Sanctuary.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Oren

Yuga is the final boss, Rosso is a miner and has no need for its magical properties, and the Thief steals the stone. The stone, once acquired, gets thrown into Oren's pool in exchange for Zora's Flippers.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Upgrade it from the Master Sword by the Blacksmith

If Link finds two pieces of Master Ore, he can take them to the Blacksmith (Gulley's dad) along with the Master Sword, who will forge the Master Sword into the new and improved Tempered Sword. Then, if Link finds another two pieces of Master Ore, he can take them and the Tempered Sword to the Blacksmith in Lorule to get the ultimate Golden Sword. Mother Maiamai can indeed upgrade many of Link's items, but the sword is not one of them. Gorons do not forge swords in "A Link Between Worlds." However, Medigoron was able to forge the Giant's Knife in "Ocarina of Time" (N64) for 200 rupees. After 8 strikes with the Giant's Knife, or simply hitting a wall, the blade would break. Biggoron was able to forge the Biggoron's Sword, which was indestructible. The Tower of Hera only yields the Pendant of Power as a prize, since most of the dungeon weapons (including the Hammer) can be rented from Ravio very early in the game.

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: Mother Maiamai

If you've found enough lost Maiamais and return them to their mother, she will be obliged to eat almost any item of your choice (provided that you own the item), and power it up. The Nice Bow shoots three arrows at once like a scattershot, reducing the need for precision aiming! Incidentally, there is a fairy at the Pond of Happiness in a "A Link to the Past" (SNES) that can upgrade the amount of arrows you can hold in your quiver, after you donate a considerable amount to her pond.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Ravio's bracelet

To get the boots, you need to merge on the wall and move behind the Thief, and to merge, you need Ravio's bracelet. This is also how you escape Yuga's painting.

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: Dark Palace

Gulley is indeed one of the seven sages that Yuga turned into portraits. Gulley's portrait is kept in Lorule's Dark Palace, or the counterpart to Hyrule's Eastern Palace. Hyrule Castle doesn't contain any sages, but Lorule Castle does contain Princess Zelda. The Skull Woods is where Seres' portrait is held. Seres is a sage, and she is the daughter of the priest from the Sanctuary. Kakariko Village doesn't contain any sages either, but Osfala's portrait is held in Lorule's counterpart in the Thieves Hideout.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Mother Maiamai

For every ten of her babies you return (there's 100), she offers to upgrade a tool. Of course, to get to her, you need bombs.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Flute Boy

Flute Boy refuses to talk to Link-- or anyone, for that matter. His partner Bard explains that he's shy and will not speak, then suggests that he and Flute Boy would be obliged to play a song for Link if he can pitch them some rupees. All of the songs that the duo play are either from "A Link Between Worlds" or other "Legend of Zelda" games. Bard is Flute Boy's music partner, and speaks to Link on behalf of them both. Hyrule Soldiers in the bar will talk to Link, as they explain that they fled Hyrule Castle in fear of their lives. Gramps isn't located in the bar, but rather outside on the west side of Kakariko Village. He teaches Link the ins-and-outs of Street Pass.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: No-one

The Hylian Shield is found in Lorule Castle. However, the wooden shield is purchased.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Rupee Rush

Rupee Rush is a mini-game located south of Kakariko Village in Hyrule, and south of Thieves' Town in Lorule. Hyrule's version costs 50 rupees per play, whereas Lorule's costs 100 rupees, and both versions only give you 30 seconds to play. The timer is hidden and Link can receive a score multiplier by returning to the entrance as close to 30 seconds as possible. Reaching 100 rupees total in both versions results in a bonus prize of a Piece of Heart. Cucco Dash is only available in Hyrule. The object is to avoid the Cuccos flying about, and if completed on Rooster difficulty, Link will win a Piece of Heart. Octoball Derby is only available in Lorule, with the object being to hit an Octorok's... rock... back towards the field and smash pots or hit birds. If Link scores 100 points or more, he will earn a Piece of Heart. Easier said than done. Rollgoal was a mini-game featured in Hena's Fishing Hole in "Twilight Princess" (Wii).

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: Bow of Light

Princess Zelda gives Link the Bow of Light, which can only be used when Link becomes a painting on the wall in the final battle against Yuga. Unfortunately, we are never given an option to save the game after the battle, thus the Bow of Light is only temporarily added to our inventory list. The Red Mail is the last item that we can obtain in Lorule Castle. The Tornado Rod can be rented and purchased from Ravio very early in the game. The Fierce Deity's Mask is the last mask that Link can obtain inside the moon in "Majora's Mask" (N64).

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Ravio

Ravio is the only one from Lorule. At the end, he pulls off his hood and shows you who he is.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Underling

After the Shady Guy from Kakariko Village stole the Smooth Gem from Queen Oren of the Zoras, she became hysterical and began growing in size. The Zora underling explained to Link that if the Smooth Gem is not recovered and brought back to the Queen, she may die. Upon performing this favor for the Zoras, Queen Oren gives Link the Zora's Flippers. Later we find out that Queen Oren is one of the sages that was captured by Yuga. There is no Zora Prince in "A Link Between Worlds," but there is in "Twilight Princess" (Wii) with Prince Ralis. There is also no Zora Spirit in "A Link Between Worlds," but there is the Lanayru Spirit in "Twilight Princess." Also, the fallen sage Laruto of the Earth Temple in "Wind Waker" could be interpreted as a Zora spirit.

Answer: Upgrade from the Net to the Super Net

According to the Devilish Girl at the front of the tower, no one has ever completed the Advanced level. Link does it twice, and each time you can earn a substantial amount of rupees as well! The Beginner level yields a prize of rupees. Completing the Intermediate level yields a Piece of Heart.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Ice rod

Turtle Rock is a fire temple, so naturally you need an ice weapon. The ice freezes lava pillars so you can merge onto it, and creates platforms you can walk on.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Irene

Irene provides Link this service because her fortune teller told her that she must help "Green." Not knowing what to make of the fortune, she assumes Link is the "Green" that is in need of her assistance. She is later captured by Yuga and turned into a portrait. Link can rescue her from the Desert Palace dungeon, when we discover that she is a sage. Impa is Zelda's guardian and also a sage, but she is not a witch. Maple is the name of the witch in eastern Hyrule that brews various potions for Link. Syrup played a similar role to that of Irene's in "Oracle of Ages/Seasons" (Game Boy Advance), where she flew around on her broom or vacuum cleaner and occasionally bumped into Link. She never gave Link any rides, but she let him keep any items she dropped if he could nab them faster than she.

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: Majora's Mask

Oddly enough, Link possesses Majora's Mask in "A Link Between Worlds." This is most likely an easter egg from the game developers, as "A Link Between Worlds" is supposed to take place near the end of the Fallen Hero timeline in the series' canon. However, "Majora's Mask" (N64) takes place near the end of the Child Link timeline canon, and the two are inherently incompatible with each other.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Hookshot

The Grappling Hook is not in this game, and only the Hookshot hooks into wood. The Grappling Hook is in "The Wind Waker" and "Phantom Hourglass".

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: Thieves' Town

Thieves' Town is Lorule's equivalent to Kakariko Village in "A Link Between Worlds." This same area was called the Village of Outcasts in "A Link to the Past" (SNES). Inside Thieves' Town is Thieves' Hideout, a dungeon right beside the house where Osfala's portrait is being held. Mabe Village is the first location that Link visits on Koholint Island in "Link's Awakening" (Gameboy Advance). Hidden Village is where Link goes in "Twilight Princess" (Wii) to meet Impaz, who saved Ilia from monsters. Whittleton is a village of lumberjacks that live in the Forest Realm in "Spirit Tracks" (DS).

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds"

Answer: Master ore

Magic has nothing to do with the master sword, pure metals are in "Phantom Hourglass", and master metals don´t exist. Blacksmith tempers the Master Sword with the ore.

From Quiz "A Link Between Worlds" - Spell It Out!

Answer: foulfruit

The Foul Fruit is a new item in the "Legend of Zelda" series. It can be purchased from the shop in Kakariko Village or from the shop just west of Lake Hylia for only 30 rupees. Using it will damage all nearby enemies, making it very valuable in dire situations! However, the Foul Fruit has no effect against bosses. Using the Foul Fruit at all is entirely optional; you can complete the game without ever having to resort to it.

From Quiz A Quiz Between Worlds

Answer: A Link to the Past (SNES)

Indeed, "A Link Between Worlds" takes place in the same Hyrule map as "A Link to the Past." This was done intentionally, as the events in "A Link Between Worlds" are supposed to unfold much later in the same place, in the same "Legend of Zelda" canon. Further, there are many other small details in the game that are reminiscent of "A Link to the Past," including Moldorm being the boss of the Tower of Hera, Grinexx being the boss of Turtle Rock (as opposed to Trinexx), Dharkstare being the boss of Ice Ruins (as opposed to Kholdstare in the Ice Palace), etc. The bird statues that Link activates also make a familiar tune when you save the game, reminiscent of the tune that would play when Link would call for the cucco to transport him in "A Link to the Past." Also, Flute Boy from the bar in Kakariko Village is reminiscent of the flute boy's father from "A Link to the Past." Incidentally, Flute Boy is also more deeply reminiscent of some things from other "Legend of Zelda" games.
