Based on the limitations of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]], the original ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda's]]'' story was not exactly detailed, or even evident. You were simply thrown into the game, without any knowledge of what to do, barring the short intro paragraph at the beginning.

You begin as Link, a young traveler who has just defeated some of Ganon's henchmen, and been informed of the imprisonment of the princess Zelda. After obtaining a sword from an old man in a cave nearby, you make your way across a very wild Hyrule. There is no dialog, nor is Link given a map or any hint whatsoever as to the whereabouts of Zelda, Ganon, the Triforce, or any dungeon. In fact, you only meet a few people, none of which have names, and mostly only serve as shop owners. Link moves from dungeon to dungeon, managing to find upgraded items, such as the [[Magic Sword]], [[Magic Boomerang]], and [[Red Ring]] and [[Blue Ring]]. Finally, Link makes his way into Death Mountain, blowing open a hole in [[Spectacle Rock]] and proceeding to Ganon's inner sanctum. After defeating Ganon and taking back the Triforce of Power, Zelda and Link raise up the Triforce of Wisdom and of Power (respectively) and the game cuts to credits. There is then an opportunity to replay the game in a sort of master quest, in which all the dungeons are moved around, and are harder.
