What's going on boys and girls what's up we're all the Austin John please here
and welcome back to Link's Awakening walkthrough this is the color dungeon if
you have never experienced a color dungeon before this was added in Link's
Awakening DX and well the whole the whole thing is that it ran on color
great which doesn't seem like that much of a vanish gimmick now but compared to
the Game Boy and it's very dimly lit green-screen color was a big deal
anyways the whole point of us completing the color dungeon is actually getting
the either the red tunic or the blue tunic what's unique about the red tunic
is that it gives you double the attack power and the blue tunic gives you
double the defense power so it's kind of like having a permanent attack up you
know the the power up guy or a permanent ACORN
by the way that's that's how you do that puzzle you hips out to change his color
if we head down here there is a room full of blue rubies which is very nice
from here we're gonna head back to the right now this floor if you jump on any
in particular tile three times it'll break and if you hit that guy out of the
sky he'll fall down now you could jump over them no problem and we can't
progress any further in the up or down room so let's head to the right these
boys you hit them so that they go into their I don't know
protective shelves or whatever and you throw them into these holes Coby nice
the individual rooms aren't much of a challenge but this dungeon has a lot of
mini bosses and well it's not the easiest thing in the world
you should do it as early as possible the requirements to enter here say you
need to have a great courage and great power but I've been able to go in here
as early as the the anglers area oh and our compass lets
us know that there's a treasure chest in here spoilers
there is and this is a one-way door that when going through it is gonna bring us
right back here and we can use our key to progress north there's also this
pathway here and I want to explore that first I believe this brings us to one of
the mini-bosses nope another puzzle you always need to make them squares so
that's the puzzle and you get another small key again the gimmick was color
hey it's our first mini boss boo I'm no weakling your pitiful sword is no match
for me or this battle you're gonna need a magic powder and hopefully you have a
lot of it so you hit him once and he goes from his electric cucumber form
into his blobby form it jumps you dodge it
you hit him two times repeat you can go through a lot of magic powder if you
know time it correctly and after a few hits ease down
actually knew that ferry this is a very simple puzzle you push those two and
then this one up and let's open up this chest it's the nightmare key sweet dude
even though we have the key we need to backtrack all the way to here and then
head north that way so backtrack back to this room with the locked door let's
head to the north and I believe there is a stone he niché's in here you want more
power a buffoon like you might as well give up and go home so this guy you
attack him he hops up every time that he hops up boulders fall and if you're on
the ground you get stunned which obviously makes you more susceptible to
being hit by boulders after you hit him a few times he starts to do double jumps
I think I can beat him without using my potion or my fairy or my magic cream one
more hit and I need to recover I need to recover
I would've got him that's fine he drops a fairy too so not a big loss head to
the next room now you need to defeat both these guys I mean they can kind of
just defeat themselves actually don't need to beat them all you need to do is
hit the switch there's a chest to the north let's go there and with us already
having the nightmare key this chest is going to get us the dungeon map which
now we clearly see that there's something over here probably another
mini-boss and then a series of rooms to the dungeon boss remember nightmare boy
oh it wasn't it was a puzzle and did I did I hit them and two of them went into
the correct holes accidentally that's amazing
great and that gets us the I believe that's the last key that we need to make
our way through here do you want to go as quick as possible because I still
have this powerup ACORN oh never mind all right great first we're going to hit
the top center and then after the top center we're going to hit the right
center then the left center then the bottom center I was easy in this room we
can get ourselves a fairy I already have two in bottles so that was just gonna
bring me up to full health nice that means that there's a boss ahead in this
room you could either use a projectile or just come here and hit it it's I mean
it's not really a puzzle or anything and there's not like a hidden treasure in
here that's just the room
here we have ourselves this is safe the hard-hit beetle and the hard-hit beetles
dome changes colors each time you hit it that's the whole shtick
step back take your time
you just just hit him a bunch I wish there was like a strategy to it
but like MA blends are harder to defeat than he is and to finish up the color
dungeon we go to the right and here is a unique great fairy she is the fairy
queen she admires us for coming this far and the power of color we get to choose
red or blue so the powerful red male doubles our attack the sturdy blue male
doubles our defense I also like the color red so I'm gonna do red
your body is full of energy and she will now take us outside if you re-enter the
color dungeon and go into the fairy Queens room you can speak with her and
we could choose to either turn blue which will increase our defense or green
which is no advantage or keep our current outfit which is the reason I
came here to just show off that you have the option so you're never stuck into
whichever option you choose which is really nice and that was even a feature
in the original game so if you don't know which one you want don't worry
about it also once you collect 40 seashells at the sea shell mansion and
deposit them you can get yourself a upgraded sword and the upgraded sword
doubles your attack after doing some somewhat extensive research on this
exact subject it looks like if you were to get the red male and then also the
upgraded sword there's not a lot of enemies that really need that much
attack power to take them down in one hit or less however this is the only
upgrade that you get to your defense so if you are to go ahead and get the blue
male you would have double defense and if you have the special sword from the
seashell mansion you have double attack also if you're playing hero mode it may
be a good idea to get yourself the blue male right off the start because as you
probably know if you're playing hero mode you do take double damage so
getting the blue male makes it so that you take on a regular amount of damage
and then after your 40th seashell that we're gonna be getting in our next
episode you're gonna have yourself the sword and if you just stumbled across
this video but you have not seen my complete walkthrough series you may want
to as I go through every single area and after each dungeon we go over every
single seashell and piece of heart that you can get like example we just
finished the anglers tunnel and we have 39 seashells
