The Legend of Zelda - Link's Awakening is a classic Game Boy Zelda adventure. Link must travel across the dream world of Koholint Island, collecting the 8 Instruments to wake the Wind Fish and go home after a terrible shipwreck.

Swordless Link (http://tasvideos.org/SwordlessLink.html) (the author), however, decided collecting instruments for a one-man band was a waste of time, so he skipped all of that and went straight to the Wind Fish (with a pesky boss battle in the middle).

The author improved the run by 11.22 seconds, which was mostly achieved by using a new route.

If you liked this, be sure to also check out the Game Boy Color version (DX) (http://tasvideos.org/1462M.html), which completes all the dungeons.
