The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX playthrough Part 3
1After saving Bow Wow from the Moblins,it will now join you on the field. It can eat enemies for you,and it can also eat the plants in the swamp nearby. Make your way around the woods and have Bow Wow clear a path to Level 2,Bottle Grotto. This dungeon is shaped like a bottle,and has lots of jars to toss around. This stage introduces switches that raise and lower blocks in 2 patterns around the area. A new enemy here is one that copies Link's movements,and can only be damaged from behind. The miniboss is a Cyclops that can throw you,and tosses bombs at you when you hit it. If you see an Eye in the floor,it will try to pull you in and drag you down a pit. The treasure of this dungeon is the Power Bracelet! Now Link can pick up those jars around here. You'll have to fight some ghosts for it,which can only be hurt when a fire is lit. One room is a bit tricky here,you need to kill the Pol's Voice (rabbit thing) first,then the Keese (bat) and finally the skull guy to get the Nightmare Key. I love how Goombas,chain chomps,whomps,and piranha plants are all in this game. BOSS FIGHT: Genie. As he constantly repeats in the fight,you can't hurt him while he has his bottle. When he emerges,he'll toss fireballs at you,then retreat into his bottle and chase you. At that time hit him with your sword then toss the bottle against the wall. Do this twice more and the bottle breaks,and he'll start spinning around the room throwing fireballs at you. Couple more sword hits and he's done for,and the 2nd Instrument,the Conch Horn,is now yours!
