 Every game in the main Zelda series has three major areas: an overworld in which movement is multidirectional, giving the player some degree of freedom of action; areas of interaction with other characters in which the player gains special items or advice; and dungeons, areas of labyrinthine layout, usually underground, containing a variety of difficult enemies, bosses, and items.[([[https://wii.fandom.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_(series)|wii]])] Every game in the main Zelda series has three major areas: an overworld in which movement is multidirectional, giving the player some degree of freedom of action; areas of interaction with other characters in which the player gains special items or advice; and dungeons, areas of labyrinthine layout, usually underground, containing a variety of difficult enemies, bosses, and items.[([[https://wii.fandom.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_(series)|wii]])]
 +
 +===== Dungeons =====
 +
 +Each dungeon often features one important item that is essential for completing many of the puzzles within that dungeon and frequently plays a crucial part in fighting the dungeon's monster and continuing through the game.[([[https://gnomestew.com/what-legend-of-zelda-can-take-us-about-dungeon-design/|gnomestew]])]
 +
 +===== Navigating Dungeons =====
 +
 +Navigating a dungeon is facilitated in practically every Zelda game by locating a map, which shows its layout, and a magic compass, which indicates the whereabouts of major and minor objects such as keys and equipment.[([[https://antoniopalmucci.com/zelda-vs-pac-man-original-3d-animation/|antoniopalmucci]])]
 +
 +===== Big Keys =====
 +
 +Later games in the series have a special "big key" that unlocks the entrance to the dungeon's boss monster and opens the loot chest.[([[https://zelda-archive.fandom.com/wiki/Boss_Key|zelda-archive]])]
 +
 +===== Hearts As Life Meter =====
 +
 +The player's life meter is shown as a line of hearts in most Zelda games. The life meter may be restored in a variety of methods, including picking up hearts dropped by slain opponents, finding fairies or springs in specified areas, or utilizing an item such as a potion.[([[https://www.indieretronews.com/2012/12/zelda-fans-rejoice-great-zelda-custom.html|indieretronews]])]
 +
 +===== Heart Containers=====
 +
 +Most games award "heart containers" as a reward for defeating a dungeon's final boss and "pieces of heart" for completing certain side quests or discovering hidden chests; heart containers increase the life meter by one heart, and receiving a varying number of pieces of heart (on average four pieces) does the same. Both will fully restore Link's health.[([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-swMW3FaFQ|youtube]])]
 +
 +===== First Console Game With Save Function =====
 +
 +The original Legend of Zelda was the first console game to include a save function, allowing players to pause and restart play later.[([[https://wii.fandom.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_(series)|wii]])]
 +
 +===== Aiming =====
 +
 +The aiming mechanism introduced in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time simplified 3D fighting.[([[https://wii.fandom.com/wiki/The_Legend_of_Zelda_(series)|wii]])]
 +
 +===== Fastest Completion =====
 +
 +Rodrigo Lopes completed the game in 31 minutes and 37 seconds on June 12th, 2006.[([[https://www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/comments/clqsrl/legend_of_zelda_speedruns_by_rodrigo_lopes/|reddit]])]
 +
 +===== Towns And Side Quests =====
 +
 +The opportunity to explore towns and accomplish side quests was incorporated in Zelda II: The Legend of Link.[([[https://www.eurogamer.net/zelda-2-is-great-and-you-should-try-it-on-the-switch|eurogamer]])]
 +
 +===== Stalfos Skeleton=====
 +
 +The sole adversary that appears in every game is the stalfos skeleton.[([[https://nintendo.fandom.com/wiki/Stalfos|nintendo]])]
 +
 +===== Zelda's Different Roles =====
 +
 +Throughout the games, Zelda's looks and roles have varied; she has been a princess, a ninja, a pirate, and Link's childhood friend.[([[https://hero.fandom.com/wiki/Princess_Zelda|hero]])]
 +
 +===== Triforce =====
 +
 +The Triforce is a sign of strength, knowledge, and bravery. Din, Nayru, and Farore, the three Golden Goddesses, constructed it.[([[https://zelda.fandom.com/wiki/Triforce|zelda]])]
 +
 +===== The Hyrule Fantasy In Japan =====
 +
 +In Japan, the game was called The Hyrule Fantasy, with the subtitle Legend of Zelda.[([[https://www.reddit.com/r/truezelda/comments/qjugud/a_questions_for_the_community_why_does_the_title/|reddit]])]
