Description
ANOTHER IMPORTANT UPDATE: A wonderful player named pixcalibur alerted me to a couple of breaking bugs in the game. These (hopefully) have been fixed. The stairs to the lower levels of 5 and 6 now work correctly, as does the Red MP bottle.

IMPORTANT UPDATE: I've looked at all the feedback and made some serious improvements. First and foremost: the overworld map is now enabled. I've replaced all the classic music with new tunes composed by Spawn. There is now a three-stair warp that you can access after the third dungeon to help you get around, as well as a bunch of little changes and bug fixes, especially in Level 9. Many thanks to everyone on the thread who helped with their feedback and letting me know about what was and wasn't working.

It’s a classic style quest with a few twists. There are lots of items to find, experience to gain, plenty of caves to explore, eight dungeons, each with a piece of the triforce and a basement full of magic and powerful equipment, and an underworld with mini-dungeons and the impregnable fortress of Ganon, captor of the princess Zelda. Get the gear, kill the bad guys, save the girl.

New things to find and do …
Many of the weapons and items from the various Legend of Zelda games are here, along with a host of new ones. There are now maps for the overworld and underworld to point you to the dungeons. In addition to your regular bow and arrows, there are a double- and triple-shot crossbow that are a bit slower, but much more powerful, a whip that can stun in front of and behind Link, and seven magic spells—each with two levels of power:

A Drop of Life (red) – A cheap way to heal a bit between stops at the fairy’s pond
Dragon’s Breath (orange) – Burn your way past your enemies with firey breath
Enhancer (yellow) – Give your sword a boost to cut through your opposition
Stunner (green) – Need a moment to think? Stop your enemies in their tracks
Zelda’s Faith (blue) – Protect yourself against the strongest of foes
Abei’s Gift (purple) – Are your wallet, quiver, and bomb bag a little too empty?
Link’s Wrath (grey) – Crushing damage, and in it’s most powerful form, a vital boost too!

No matter how you take down your enemies, they each provide a little experience. As you rack up the levels, your maximum HP and MP will go up too, as well as your ability to carry supplies.
Within each dungeon, the dungeon boss holds the item you’ll need to access both the basement and the next dungeon. The items you’ll find in the basement aren’t necessary to complete the quest, but they’ll make things much easier.

A note on magic …
Magic plays a big part in this quest. While you only start with a little bit of MP and a single spell, in time you’ll become a powerful wizard in addition to a dominant fighter. When you cast a spell, a little time has to pass before you can cast another. A bar will appear beneath your MP counter that will let you know when you’re ready to cast again. As you build levels and find upgrades, you will be able to cast spells much more rapidly.
Story
You’re out in a field, practicing with your staff, when you decide to go into your hut and instead of seeing your things, you see a vision of a princess begging you to come rescue her! So what can you do but head off your little island (after all it’s just you and some crazy old wizard in the other hut and a cave full of bats) and try to find her?
Tips & Cheats
Explore, explore, explore! When you start, collect everything on your island, then stay to the south until you find (and complete) the first castle. Somewhere in each dungeon is someone who will point you towards the next level.

The readme file packaged with the quest also includes an eqipment list
