Link's Awakening DX GBC Color Dungeon
The Color Dungeon is new in DX. A book in the Village Library gives the order to push five gravestones, and the way in opens under them. Two guards stand at the door and only let Link in on a Game Boy Color, once he says which of them wears red. At the end the fairy queen gives Link the Red Clothes or the Blue Clothes. The game only says red is for offense and blue for defense; the numbers are below. 101Leafy researched the game.
Who asks, what Link needs, and what he gets are on the side quests page.
Finding it
The book is in the Village Library. It numbers the five gravestones and draws an arrow for the way to push each one. Push them in order from 1 to 5 to open the way down.
New world of color under the
5 gravestones.

Try with all your might. Open
a new path! Whoever is
worthy receives the power of
color. I wonder what the world

The guards
Which guard wears red changes as Link walks in, so the answer is not always the same. A wrong answer sends Link back to try again.
On a Game Boy Color
Our colors are never the same!
If I am red, he is blue! If he
is red, I am blue! What color
is my cloth? Red Blue
No, no. Take a closer look and
try again.
Don't tell anyone.
On a Game Boy
I am sorry, but this is the
Color Dungeon. Only those with
the power of color may enter.
If you can tell who wears red
and who wears blue, you may
enter. Farewell.

The hints Link reads inside
Here is your clue. Make
all the red blue.
Blue is safe. Yellow is
caution. Red is danger.
Yellow is caution. Red is
danger,Take your time.
Blue. Start over. Yellow is
caution. Red is danger.
The fairy queen
When she starts talking, a Piece of Power or Guardian Acorn Link still has wears off.
What she asks
Welcome, Link. I admire you for
coming this far. I will give you
the power of color. If you
want offense, choose red. If
you want defense choose blue.
Which power do you want?
RED BLUE
Are you sure? YES NO
Red for offense, blue for
defense. Which do you choose?
RED BLUE
Red Clothes
You've got the Red Clothes!
Your body is full of energy!
Red Clothes count as one more sword level, the same as a Piece of Power. Most enemies take 2 instead of 1 from the first sword, and 4 instead of 2 from the Level 2 sword. A Piece of Power on top adds nothing more.
Blue Clothes
You've got the Blue Clothes!
Your damage will be reduced by
half!
Blue Clothes halve every hit Link takes, rounded down, the same as a Guardian Acorn. With a Guardian Acorn on top a hit is still only halved once.
Relax and close your eyes.
I will now take you out.
