The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons [Linked] - Part 22 - Fiery Shield & Frozen Shield
3The Sword & Shield Maze! It is nothing too special to use sword and shield as a theme in order to build a nice contradiction in theming. Always works well to combine two aspects as a theme which are complete opposites separately. And swords and shield are far from the only ones this happens with. In fact, this very dungeon makes use of another very famous one as well. Sword and shield is in this case just the layout of the dungeon. The true theming is a little bit more standard 😅: Fire and Ice! 😝
The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons is one of the two parts that make up the 'Oracle games' within the Zelda series. It was produced alongside The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and they were released at the same time. There is even a special link and password system that can connect the two games to find exclusive secrets in both games and even connect the stories of the two games into one. There is even a special secret ending if you manage to complete both games with this linking system. A unique and very original concept that makes both of these games worth going through. For my Let's Play I'll be playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages first without linking, and when completed use its link to play The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons to create the link in the story. In the Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons Link is being sent by the Triforce to Holodrum. There he finds the dancer Din, who turns out to be the Oracle of Seasons, the controller of nature! Then Onox, general of darkness, reveals herself and imprisons Din, sinking the Temple of Seasons into the mysterious land of Subrosia at the same time, making the seasons of Holodrum fall into chaos. Link then will use the powers of nature as he battles through nine different dungeons along his quest to defeat Onox. Link needs to find a way to change the seasons on his way to saving the land of Holodrum, and rescue Din, the Oracle of Seasons.
