The Power Glove, once you obtain it, is automatically equipped from there on out and allows Link to pick up the large and small light green stones and rocks alike, that are found all over the lands of Hyrule.

Im not a Zelda nerd, I dont have time to learn every enemys name in the game. ... Yes, I am a Zelda nerd, I know the names of the Zelda enemies. ... So calling a Wizzrobe a Wizard, for instance, will actually mean something to you, even if youre not a Zelda fanatic. ... The same goes for the walkthrough section of the FAQ, but what Im trying to say is that the enemy names are more based on their looks then on their real names, because calling a freakin Stalfos a Skeleton will mean something to Joe Shmo who doesnt play Zelda games. ... So please, dont e-mail me regarding my incorrect Zelda enemy names, because I dont give a crap. ----- Name: Armos Location: Light World Description: Armos looked like statues holding freakin television sets back in the 1986 release of The Legend of Zelda on the NES.

When the eyeball comes into line with your character, it shoots a powerful red laser beam in your direction, which does great damage to Link! ... However, get too close or wait too long, and theyll shoot at Link. When this happens, and they touch you, theyll turn Link into a Bunny! This is the Bunny that Link looks like when he first enters the Dark World on Death Mountain. Even now that you have the Moon Pearl however, which allows Link to keep his regular form in the Dark World, youll still be turned into a Bunny. ... ----- Name: Mummy Location: Dark World Description: Mummies are actually called Gibdos, but I dont want to be a Zelda nerd about it, and not everyone is a Zelda nerd thatll be reading this FAQ/Walkthrough of mine, so I wanted to be clearer to the reading audience, by simply calling the Gibdos "Mummies," and so thats what Ive done here. ... However, Mummies in this game are far, far harder than they were in the original Zelda. ... In anycase, they dont have any actual attacks to harm you with, but they follow Link all around the room theyre in at all times, making them impossible to continuously avoid. ... ----- Name: Octorok Location: Light World Description: Octoroks are classic Zelda enemies that have been redone for this Zelda installment.

They come from the ceiling, and try to land atop of Link. ... When this happens, Link is automatically transported back to the entrance of the dungeon. ... But Water Bugs often attack (and chill, period) in large groups, making a swarming attack possible, which will inevitably overwhelm Link (and you, playing as Link). ... While the Water Worm doesnt have any strong attacks, and doesnt do a whole lot of damage to Link, he should still be dealt with as is any enemy - with a few slashes of the Tempered Sword. ... ----- Name: Wizard Location: Dark World Description: Wizards are more commonly known by the Zelda community as Wizzrobes, their common name. ... In anycase, the Wizards are fairly popular dungeon-dwelling enemies that are found in most Zelda games. Youll be quite happy to know, however, that unlike in the original Zelda on the NES, and in the Nintendo64 Zelda titles, Wizards arent difficult or pains in the ass at all. ... the Wizzrobes in the original Zelda on the NES were ridiculous. ... ----- Name: Yellow Slime Location: Dark World Description: Yellow Slimes are slightly stronger versions of the Red and Blue slimes that weve come across in past dungeons of the game. ... ----- Name: Zora Location: Light World Description: When I say Zora, Im not talking about the big Zora that sells Link the Flippers for 500 (although hes one of the same). ... just make sure to not get smacked up by his mace, which does considerable damage to the weak Link. ...

Its pretty short and straight-forward (not exactly your cliche Zelda dungeon/palace that you find in this game), but its still a dungeon-esque area of the game. ... " So, in the end, the dungeon isnt hard, but like all of the dungeons in Zelda: A Link to the Past, it takes a lot of patience, some reasoning and use of logic, and a little hard work. ... The enemies within do massive damage, until you finally find the dungeons special item/weapon, the Blue Clothes, which cut damage Link sustains in half! ... " Misery Mire is the coolest name for a Zelda game dungeon in any Zelda game ever created, period. ... Its a boring dungeon, a dungeon that takes very little intelligence to defeat, but at the same time, can be a real pain in the ass, because it takes a lot of patience, and a whole lot of backtracking, a Zelda trait that really needs to go. ... From the entrance of the palace, go north, past the Laser Statue, and then west, past the two clay jars, and north. ...

When you do catch up with him, hell admire your speed (telling you it must have been easy for you to kidnap Zelda with that speed! ... *********************** The Chris Houlihan Room *********************** The Chris Houlihan Room is probably the best (and most mysterious) secret that The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past has to offer. ... Back before The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was made, the famous magazine Nintendo Power held a contest for someones name to appear in a soon- to-be-made videogame for the new powerful Nintendo system, the Super Nintendo, or SNES for short. ... He suggests that by walking to the north part of Kakariko Village on the path in the east side of the village, then running north, and east past the Fortune Tellers house, and then south and west into the castles secret entrance is faster and gives you a better success rate. ...
