This is not a full Zelda game, but a Zelda-themed minigame. Instead of [[Link]], players control their Miis in outfits befitting Hyrulean adventurers. However, the game does feature several iconic items such as the [[Master Sword]], the [[Hero's Bow]], and the [[Triforce]].

Various motion sensors in the GamePad allow the archer player to look around the environment by moving the controller like a view finder. The left analog stick also controls the horizontal rotation of the camera. The GamePad screen displays how much health and how many arrows the player has left.
Various motion sensors in the GamePad, including a gyroscope, allow the archer player to look around the environment by moving the controller like a view finder. The left analog stick also controls the horizontal rotation of the camera. The GamePad screen displays how much health and how many arrows the player has left.


To fire an arrow, the player pulls down on the right analog stick and releases. Holding it down for a few seconds charges a powerful shot which deals extra damage and pierces through enemies. While charging a shot, the Mii will not move forward. This can be used strategically to pause progress and look around or carefully aim at unaware enemies from afar. Once the player runs out of arrows, he or she must lay the GamePad horizontal to refill the quiver.

===Swordsman===
Like ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', the players' swords use Wii MotionPlus to enable direct control of the swords' movements. Pressing 'B' halts the player's movement and raises his or her shield. Enemies are targeted automatically, but players can switch targets by pressing 'A'. If the sword is held aloft for a few seconds, it will build energy and enable the next attack to become a powerful [[Spin Attack]], which has a wide range and can break wooden shields.

Rather than moving through the stage, the player says in place while waves of enemies approach. Each stage contains 25 enemies, and a stage is Mastered once it is completed within 40 seconds.
