Description
(This quest was created by Phantom Menace and completed by Nightmare...)

Back in 1999, Phantom Menace and I were working together on Zelda Classic (pretty much just us), and we made two separate quests. One was New Quest (mine) as everyone knows, the other was the Demo Quest, supposedly the try-out field for new features BEYOND Zelda Classic. As you know, New Quest was honored and remembered.

Sadly, for our creator of Zelda Classic, Demo Quest never got finished as PM got sidetracked.

So in the summer of 2004, five years later, I asked for permission to finish off Demo Quest to satisfy the urges of the oldbies wanting to save Zelda in that quest, as well as make it playable (if you thought James Quest 2 or Mega Man: DWR DC were hard, pick up Demo Quest from the AGN DB. Makes both of those look easy!) I was successful in updating and adding a lot of ZC's new features and tricks into Demo to re-create the feel it had back in 1999, with new features as well. It's also MUCH more playable now. Unfortunately, much as I love his work, PM tended to be a much better Zelda player than me and his quests were designed that way. Everyone should have a chance now rather than just 3-4 players.

Tips & Cheats
1. Darknut Cheat: Stand perpendicular to them and slash. You will always hit them.

2. There's a Gleeok 2 in Level-A, one head. Usually you'd need the Mirror Shield to battle such a monstrosity, but there's a way to beat him if you notice his patterns. There isn't anything else in the room to worry about and no extra heads to worry about, so just hide in the corner. His fire cannot hit you! When the head goes to the other side, the fire will be out of range. Move up, throw sword beams, go back to the corner until it's out of range. Get one of the previous Potions if you don't have full life or use the Quick Save to get full life.

3. Cheat Codes in the extra area, if you can decipher the riddles.
