Meanwhile, Hyrule has gone down the toilet, now that Ganondorf has the Triforce-which is all Link’s fault. He knew Link would return to the Temple of Time and open the Door of Time, and made his move. Ganondorf shows up, and pretty much says “Thanks, buddy!”Īpparently, Link’s questing for the Spiritual Stones was exactly what Ganondorf wanted. Upon opening The Door of (sigh) Time, things get wacky. But first I stopped by the Restroom of Time, followed by the Drinking Fountain of Time, and… I returned to the Temple of Time with all three Spiritual Stones and played the Song of Time with my brand new Ocarina of Time (which is better than an Ocarina of Loneliness). How embarrassing would that be? “Death by Cucco,” I’m ashamed just thinking such a thing. It was all I could do to escape their wrath before dying. ![]() Then the little bastards gave chase, pecking young Link’s tender flesh with their stoney beaks. ![]() The Cucco loosed a thunderous caw, and its brothers and sisters flew to its side. I accidentally set off a bomb next to a Cucco, and all Hell broke loose. Sure, they look cute, and sound cute, but they are deadly. Ocarina of Time Pro Tip: Don’t Bomb CuccosĬuccos. Although, there is the part where Link sneaks inside the Royal tomb. I guess in some way, this is a sort of proto-poorman’s (…poor elf’s?) version of a metal detector.Īll I know is, last time I tried that at the local graveyard, I had a bunch of ‘splainin’ to do at the police station.Īt least the game doesn’t show Link breaking open coffins and prying gold rings off cold, dead hands. I wonder if there was an uptick in grave-robbing after Ocarina of Time was released? Worse still is Dampe, the Kakariko gravedigger, making a bit of side income off would-be graverobbers under the guise of a late night cemetery ‘tour.’ Said tour has you paying Dampe to stop and dig holes in the graveyard, in hopes of finding treasure. Link spends plenty of time rooting around graveyards, looking for goodies in Hyrule. The magic bean side-quest is certainly a more entertaining way to learn about investments than the clunky Warren Buffett‘s A Boy and His Portfolio: Trouble on Capitalgainsia. Pay attention, kids! This game is trying to teach you something, and more than that you can remove whale parasites with a boomerang. Sure, Link is locked away for seven years in a creepy cave with an old guy watching him sleep before the magic bean investments bear fruit (…or legumes, I guess). Knowing investing in magic bean futures as a child might pay off as an adult, I decided to take a shot. ![]() During my travels, I came across a fellow selling magic beans.
