After somehow having two extra keys to grab the red ring, I think ELONMUSK is in a pretty good position to finish this game. Can he do it, or does he lose forever?

Here are some highlights:

13 minutes, 30 seconds - I was missing a key and decided to go buy one from the store rather than wonder if maybe it was because there was something I missed in a previous labyrinth.

27 minutes, 40 seconds - Wait I didn't pick up a book so why does the wand create fire? I guess there's no book to find in this hack. That's interesting.

37 minutes, 30 seconds - Ha! The compass fooled me! Better look around a bit...

2 hours, 14 minutes, 40 seconds - This is a nasty secret here. Can't say that I agree with forcing the player to take damage to make progress though.

2 hours, 16 minutes, 40 seconds - This red tunic was nicely hidden and made you work for it. I like that.

2 hours, 32 minutes - How did I not take damage from that second shot from Vaati?

Final thoughts:
Overall I really enjoyed this game. Kudos to The3Dude for making such a great hack. There were two heart pieces and the blue tunic that I never managed to locate, and there's also an entire second quest that begs to be explored! I definitely recommend this hack to anyone who has completed the original Legend of Zelda and wants another challenging and rewarding quest.
