Tier Force Heroes is back for 2023! Zelda Dungeon greats Gooey Fame, Corey Richmond, and Skull Kid Nico are here to end Dungeon Week right, ranking Zelda‘s Big Keys, whether for boss rooms, new dungeon levels, or item chests, found throughout the series. Starting with The Legend of Zelda and wandering between different games in the series, the Tier Force Heroes crew examines each key’s pros and cons, from the sprite and official designs to the key’s utility and the way…

Since it’s Dungeon Week here at Zelda Dungeon, there’s no better time than the present to get your Gooey’s Dungeon Dive fix! Over the holidays, Zelda Dungeon’s Gooey Fame released another episode of Gooey’s Dungeon Dive, which is now well into its ninth season focusing on The Wind Waker. This time around, the series takes us into the Tower of the Gods. Once again, Corey Richmond joins the fray as the pair of hosts discuss the dungeon’s Indiana Jones-eqsue vibes,…

During this Dungeon Week, my first as a staff writer for Zelda Dungeon, I find myself in the middle of playing through The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. As noted in Zelda Dungeon’s 2022 Best Zelda Ever feature, not only does Seasons seem doomed to live in the shadow of its more generally-loved sister Oracle of Ages by way of constant comparison, it’s also chronically underplayed. With several of the “lesser” titles not yet under my belt, I’m attempting…

Have you ever wondered just how far you could glide across Hyrule if it weren’t for that pesky stamina wheel in Breath of the Wild? How about tackling your most tricky nemesis without having to worry about taking damage? In their most recent YouTube video, Gaming Reinvented shows off a two-part glitch that can come in handy to give players these exact godlike powers. Thanks to discoveries made by glitch hunters Simaubaka and LegendofLinkk, Gaming Reinvented provides a full breakdown…

As I recently performed the inevitable new year’s task of taking down and packing away my Christmas decorations, I was listening to a couple of Did You Know Gaming? (DYKG) videos on Zelda titles that were either only released in Japan (“EVERY Zelda Game America Never Got”) or were never released at all (“Lost Zelda Games”). While these are only two of the many videos the YouTube channel has released on the topic of Zelda titles that for one reason…

No matter what holiday you celebrate this time of year, odds are it’s built on several layers (or centuries) of tradition. Family-specific traditions also tend to take deep root into many revelers’ hearts. As someone who celebrates Christmas, I’ve always been pretty relaxed about specific activities or places to celebrate the holiday, as I tend to rotate my time spent between different sides of the family; but without at least a few brightly-themed decorations, a healthy dose of festive music…

While the holiday season is certainly one of my favorite times of the year, it brings with it a lot of extra stress on top of my normal responsibilities at work and at home. Joining the shopping rush, planning for travel or hosting festivities, and making sure it all doesn’t break the bank really sends my anxiety skyward. In years past, I’ve also had to make sure I passed my final exams for college or graduate school, which was always…

“Did you know that Nintendo cancelled a Zelda game between Link’s Awakening and Ocarina of Time so they could make Star Fox 64 instead?” With this attention-grabbing line, the popular and talented team over at the YouTube channel Did You Know Gaming? (DYKG) began their most recent video “The Mystery of Ura Zelda SOLVED.” With the help of data miners, translations of old magazine interviews, and insider perspectives from folks who worked on the games, DYKG sets some facts straight…

With the year drawing to a close, December is a time of gift-giving and thankfulness for many of us. As we make shopping lists for others and wishlists for ourselves, it’s easy to get lost in all the nerdy options for new Zelda-related merch, keepsakes, and collectibles. With a limited budget and endless options, sometimes it’s hard to choose: a cozy Korok plush or a cool fan art poster? A Breath of the Wild Champion figure or some themed new…
