Link's Awakening DX Instruction Booklet
For The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX on the Game Boy Color (1998).
Each panel sums up one part of the booklet that came with the game and quotes a line from it, with the page. The last panel covers what the DX version added.
Prologueプロローグ
Link's boat goes down in a storm at sea, and he washes up on Koholint Island. While he gathers his sword on the beach, an owl lands beside him with a riddle about the Wind Fish, said to sleep in a giant egg on top of the mountain.
Awaken the Wind Fish and all will be answered.
Controller Operationコントローラの基本操作
The Control Pad moves Link in eight directions and the cursor in menus. SELECT shows the island map, START opens the sub-screen, and the A and B Buttons use the two items set to them. A also talks to people and reads signs.
If you press START, SELECT and the A and B Buttons simultaneously, you can quit the game.
Beginning Your Journeyゲームを始める前に
The game holds three files. Pick an empty one and enter a name to begin. From the same screen a file can be erased or copied to another file.
Screen Display Features画面の見方
The main screen shows the items on the B and A Buttons, your rupees, and your hearts. The sub-screen holds the rest of your items, and the map marks the places you have been.
You can carry up to 999 rupees.
Moving Your Characterプレイヤーのアクション
Besides walking and pushing, Link swings his sword, holds the button down for a whirling attack, jumps with Roc's Feather, raises his shield, and runs with the Pegasus Boots. He can also lift and throw things, pull with the Power Bracelet, and swim once he has the Flippers. The booklet marks jumping and holding up the shield as new moves.
Heroic Equipmentアイテムについて
Items come in three kinds: the ones you set to A or B, items that work on their own once you have them (the Yoshi Doll, the Flippers, and the Secret Medicine), and the things you collect, like the Gold Leaves, the shells hidden around the island, and the five keys that open dungeons.
About Dungeonsダンジョンについて
There are eight dungeons. Their chests hold small keys, the map, the compass, and dungeon items that only work inside. Owl statues give hints once you find the stone slab, and at the end of each dungeon one of the eight instruments waits behind the boss.
Life and Magical Powerハートとライフ
Link starts with three hearts. Every boss leaves a Heart Container, and four Pieces of Heart make one more. Hearts, the Secret Medicine, and fairies refill your life.
In all, there are 12 Pieces of Heart (and a total of 14 Heart Containers).
Ending and Saving the Gameゲームオーバーとセーブ
When all hearts are empty the game ends, and the Game Over screen lets you save and continue, save and quit, or go on without saving. Pressing A, B, START, and SELECT together brings up the same choice in the middle of a game.
