Magic Container

Main article: Magic Container

Just as with Heart Containers, Link begins with four Magic Containers and can find four more scattered throughout Hyrule.

Link Doll

Point Bags provide Link an instant boost to experience in 50, 100, 200, and 500 point increments.

A limited number of Point Bags are also hidden throughout Hyrule.

Small Key

Main article: Small Key

Small Keys are found within palaces and unlock doors that block Link's path. While Keys can be used in palaces other than which they are found, doing so makes completing them difficult as unlike in The Legend of Zelda, there is not a surplus of keys.
