In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (video game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', Rupees are spelled '''Rupies''' in the original in-game item list and called '''rubies''' in the NES manual.<ref>''The Legend of Zelda'' instruction booklet, page 21.</ref> However, the ''Tips & Tactics'' guide calls them rupees.<ref>''Tips & Tactics: The Legend of Zelda instruction booklet'', page 12.</ref> They appear in two forms in the game. Ones that flash between orange and blue are worth one, while ones that are a solid blue are worth five. They are usually dropped from defeated enemies, but can also be obtained by locating hidden caves with [[secret Molblin]]s in them, which will bribe Link with varying amounts of Rupies. Link can carry up to 255 Rupies, the maximum value an unsigned 8-bit value can hold. He can spend them at a [[merchant]]'s shop, the [[Money Making Game]], or give them to [[old woman|old women]] for, advice, or in one case, [[Sacred Water|Water of Life]]. Some [[old man|old men]] with hidden homes will take Rupies from Link if he uncovers their caves, in order to pay for the door repair. Others found in dungeons may offer increased [[bomb]] capacity in exchange for Rupies. Additionally, shooting [[arrow]]s costs a Rupy per arrow in this game.

In the [[Second Quest]], some old men in dungeons will instead demand Link give them Rupies or one of his [[Heart Container|Container Heart]]s.
