==Appearances==

===The Adventure of Link===

In ''The Adventure of Link'' it can be performed by jumping and then holding the down button. [[Link]] must learn the Downward Thrust to complete the game as there are keys as in the [[Island Palace]] that cannot be reached without it.

The technique can be obtained in the [[Harbor Town of Mido]] by casting the [[Jump Spell]] to reach the top of the bell tower. Once inside, [[Link]] is taught the technique by the knight that resides there.  

===The Minish Cap===

In ''The Minish Cap'', it is performed by jumping with the [[Roc's Cape]], and pressing the sword button. It is useful against many enemies.

===Cadence of Hyrule===

In ''[[Cadence of Hyrule]]'', the Downward Thrust is a technique required in order to cross the smaller river on [[Death Mountain]] and reach the [[Temple of Storms]]. It can be found in the [[Windmill (Cadence of Hyrule)|Windmill]] after waking the workers.
