The story begins in [[Hyrule Castle]] where [[Link]] complains to [[King Harkinian]] about being bored. They both discuss the prospects of new adventure. Soon, Link's hopes are fulfilled as [[Gwonam]] arrives on a magic carpet and tells them that [[Ganon]] has taken over the island of [[Koridai]]. Gwonam explains that according to a prophecy, only Link can stop him. Link is flown to Koridai on Gwonam's magic carpet, and the wizard shows him the island's giant stone statues, collectively known as the [[Faces of Evil]], which Link must conquer. | The story begins in [[Hyrule Castle]] where [[Link]] complains to [[King Harkinian]] about being bored.

Link is equipped with both a [[sword]] and a [[shield]] at the start (even though Gwonam tells him that he only needs a sword). The sword is used to attack enemies and fire [[Power Blast]]s, and the shield can deflect attacks from enemies. The shield automatically lifts when the player is standing still or crouching. Link can purchase other useful items at [[Morshu]]'s store, including [[lamp oil]], a [[rope (item)|rope]], and [[bomb]]s. The game uses "[[rupee|rubies]]" for currency, which Link can obtain from defeating enemies. | ||
Link's health is measured in [[Heart Container|Life Heart]]s, which is displayed at the upper-left corner during gameplay. Link has three Life Hearts by default, but he can later obtain more.

When Links loses all of his Life Hearts, he earns a [[Game Over]]. For the first two Game Overs, the player is provided with an option of continuing from near the point where Link lost his last Life Heart. When Link loses his Life Hearts a third time, he is returned to the map, and the player is forced to restart the level. | ||
