The Legend of Zelda (NES) Gameplay & Full Walkthrough of Level 7 Dungeon - The Demon Level

🎮 Let’s play the RPG that started it all — The Legend of Zelda on the Nintendo NES!
We’re playing on an authentic toaster console, so you might notice a few real-deal NES glitches along the way.

In this episode, we tackle Dungeon 7 (The Demon Level) from the first quest. And yes — ever since I was a kid, I’ve called it “Candy,” not *“Meat”… so just go with it! 🍬

Before heading inside, we visit the same shop where we bought the Blue Ring to pick up some “candy.” Level 7 feels like a bit of a tune-up dungeon before the real chaos of Levels 8 and 9, but there’s still plenty to do. Inside, we discover the Red Candle, which finally gives us unlimited fire attacks instead of single-use flames.

(Small correction: I forgot to buy the extra-bomb upgrade during the recording — you can purchase the +4 bomb expansion later, and I did off-camera!)
