Mike's RPG Center - Zelda II

Walkthrough

You will begin the game in the Castle, standing beside the sleeping princess Zelda. You quest is to retrieve the third triforce to wake her up.

Go east to the town of Rauru.

In the second part of the town, you will see a lady in a blue dress step out of a white building. Talk to her and she will invite you inside. Talk to the wise man in the basement to learn Shield Magic.

Leave town and follow the road northwest. Enter the forest area that stands alone and inside you will find a bag containing 50 points.

Fight enemies in the area to raise you level once or twice.

Enter the cave northeast of Rauru. There is one enemy in the cave which you won't be able to see very well in the dark, so watch carefully.

On the other side of the cave is the Parapa Desert. Go south and you will find a heart container in a clearing in a forest.

Return to the desert to the north and enter the Parapa Palace in the northeast corner of the desert.

In the palace, go left first to find a key. Go back to the right and you come across a door which will require your key to open.

Keep going right and eventually you find a fairy who can restore your life.

Take the elevator by the fairy up and keep going right to find two keys.

Return to the elevator and drop one level. Go right until you reach an elevator you passed over earlier.

Go down and to the left to find the Candle. This will light up dark caves.

Return to the elevator by where the fairy was and go down.

You will have to fight several tough enemies until you get to the boss of the palace. The boss' body is invulnerably to your attacks. Jump up and hit him in the head to hurt him.

Once you have defeated the boss, continue to the right to place the crystal in the crystal holder. Exit the palace and it will become stone.

Enter the cave again and it will be well lit because you have the candle.

Enter the cave just southeast of the Castle and inside you will find a Magic Container.

2nd Palace

Follow the road to the northwest to the town of Ruto.

From the first house of the second area of the town will come a woman in a red dress who will tell you that Goriya of Tantari stole their trophy.

Enter the cave in the desert to the east of Ruto. Defeat Goriya (the boomerang thrower) and take the trophy behind him.

Return to Ruto and show the trophy to the lady who was asking for it. She will invite you inside. Speak to the old man in the basement and he will teach you the magic of Jump.

Enter the cave south of Ruto. Near the end of the cave you will find a ledge that's too high for you to jump up. Cast the Jump spell to be able to jump up it.

Go south from the cave exit to the river and cross the river at the bridge. Follow the path to the water town of Saria.

Some of the people in the village are actually spies of Ganon and will turn into bats when you talk to them.

One of the women in the village will tell you that she lost her mirror. Enter the empty house and look under the table to find her mirror. Give the mirror back to the women and she will invite you into the house. Speak to the old man to gain the magic of Life.

Follow the road east to the first roadblock and then north to the second road block. Enter the cave to the west to find 200 experience points.

Go west into the Midoro Swamp and keep going west until you find the Palace.

Take the first elevator to the bottom and then go right to find a key.

Return to the elevator, go up one floor, and then continue to the left to find a second key.

Go up one more floor and then keep going a long way left.

When you reach the elevator go down one floor and keep going left again to find the Power Glove. You will now be able to break blocks with your sword.

Return to the elevator and go down to the bottom level. In some places you will need to break the blocks with your sword because they are blocking your way.

Bypass the elevator you come across and contine to the right to find another key.

Return to the elevator you skipped and take it down one level.

Eventually you will meet the boss. Like the first one, you must jump and hit him the head. What makes him more difficult than the first boss is that he shoots at you as does a couple of the helmets you knock off his head.

Death Mountain

Return to the bridge that leads to Saria and enter the forest square five steps east and six steps north. A man named Bagu will give you a note for the river man.

Enter the village of Saria and speak to the river man and the end of the village. He will create a bridge so that you can cross the river.

Walk into the cave entrance to enter Death Mountain.

Enter the east cave and continue through the tunnel.

A couple tunnels later, you will find an elevator. Ignore the elevator and contine to the right.

When you leave the tunnel you should find yourself in a small forested area with a choice of two tunnels to take. Enter the east cave.

You need to pass through five tunnels and then enter the cave near the rock. Inside this cave you will find the hammer. This item will allow you to destroy roadblocks.

Use the Hammer on the rock next to the cave entrance and step onto the square to find a magic container.

Go through the tunnel on the east side of the area and then go north to reach the exit from Death Mountain.

3rd Palace

Go to King's Tombs. This is the tomb standing alone in the cemetary below Mido.

Walk straight south from King's Tomb and you will fall into a passage. Cast Fairy to get up to the ledge to the right.

You will emerge from the tunnel on the island south of Mido. Enter the palace.

Take the elevator down into the palace and keep going all the way to the right. Along the way you will find a key. Use your down thrust to break the blocks so that you can reach the key.

Bypass the elevator and continue to the right to find another key.

Return to the elevator, go down, then head right. Eventually you will find the Raft.

Return left and go past the second elevator to find a key.

Go back right to the elevator and descend. Keep going right until you come to the boss.

The boss is a knight on a horse and will charge from one side, turn around, and attack you from the other. Jump over him when he charges and down-thrust so that you hit him as he goes under you. Eventually his horse will die and the knight will fight you alone. Fight him as you would any other armored knight.

Go south through the mountain pass. You will have three encounters where you will have to dodge rocks that are thrown at you from above.

Follow the path southeast and cross the bridge. Go south and cross the second bridge to get to the town.

Enter the town of Kasuto. There are no people and you keep getting hurt by invisible enemies. Enter the first house and an old man will tell you that the town is dead and that you should search the forest to the east.

Enter the palace and take the elevator to its lower level. You will be able to open the door with the Magic Key.

Jump across the pit. If you fall in, fall three more times and you will be back at the top level.

In the large room past the elevator, there are several tall pillars. Between the third and four pillars there is an invisible pit that you must jump over. If you fall in, go to the left and take the elevator back up so you can try again.

Take the elevator down into the palace and go left.

In the next room, go along the top level and jump over the invisible hole just to the left of the pillar.

You will return to the castle and use the Triforce to wake up Zelda and bring peace to Hyrule.
