The first part of the series is up. I am actually still rushing to try and finishing recording the remainder of this series, so you might see me asking for help either here in this thread or in the other thread in quest discussion. So starting off: What is the point of that grove of trees in the north middle of the light world? I've tried all of my items all over the place with no success and the lens of truth does not help me other than show me there are portals in the center. Beyond that, I've figured out most other things already.

Here is the first part: (Just basic exploration and figuring out the maze that is level 1.)

Also please take into consideration that when I first started this recording almost a year ago, this actually was my first custom quest I ever played/tried. So my reactions can seem a bit dated now, but I actually wasn't aware of the program Zelda Classic two years ago and was only introduced to it recently, so I had no idea you could do this many things with it! Since starting this play series, I've actually quit and taken breaks and played other quests, so you'll see my reactions to 'new' things fade as the series goes on.

This is going to be really fun... I wish you great luck on this quest

[ZeldaPlayer]

This must be really challenging. Good luck with the rest.

You can pay for info regarding that grove of trees, though it is a bit of a cryptic hint.  Your lens actually helps if you look very carefully with it. 

 

Otherwise, in that grove of trees, look at your overworld map and see which one you DON'T see any of.  And did you try every item you had, including ones you can buy?

[RetroChallengeGamer]

yes, I tried every item I had on the spot where the portals were. Nothing worked. Even wasted a super bomb on it! And where/what was this cryptic clue?

[pixcalibur]

Pay for info spot is somewhere in the dark world. Oh, and you don't test on the spot where the portals are, you use the correct item on the tree that is alone on the overworld

Yeah, too many Lost Isle vids out there, including my own LP that I'm currently uploading, lol

3 heart, no potion run of this pretty much would require TAS level play at the end to beat. I do "no potion" runs, but not 3 heart runs. Kind of a bit much for me there

The second part has me fumbling around realizing that you can't find arrows in dungeon 1 and you have to go out and buy them! What gives? I still manage to beat the dungeon however after this minor setback!

The interesting parts for me to watch will probably occur from dungeon 3 onwards! Good luck!

Level 3 is gonna be a minefield without some strategy.

 

Entering Level 5 is gonna evoke a nice reaction (though fairly linear level, easier with some nifty tricks that I do in my LP that's pending upload)

[RetroChallengeGamer]

Part 3 involves me exploring the rest of the world that I can before delving into dungeon 2. I even manage to find the blue candl....erm..blue lantern!

Beat dungeon 2, and finally found the dark world! I'm stumbling around lost however, with the dark world being mindlessly wandering! I still think I'm making good progress though!

A lot of dark world exploration, even accidently finding a HC Piece when I wasn't expecting one! We then cross the threshold to Dungeon 3 and get quite a shock: WIZZROBES! DEAR LORD WHY?!

[RetroChallengeGamer]

Entered Dungeon 3 and made quite a lot of headway, acquiring all three items of the dungeon! Still on the hunt for that boss key though!

[RetroChallengeGamer]

We complete the tough level 3 dungeon and start tackling impossible mini-dungeons! What is there purpose? I may never know! Despite that, I still explore more of both worlds as I try to find new items with my acquired gear from Dungeon 3.

Pretty cool parts so far! And damn, Level 3 looked like a nightmare lol. Good luck for later dungeons though, they get worse lol.

 

Also, I got a question, do you take any suggestions for Let's Plays? If so, I got 2 quests of mine I could recommend to ya, that's if you're up for it.
