OK, this game says its suitable for ages 3+

...that's scary... I'm in my mid twenties and I've got totally stuck right at the beginning of the game. I'm normally quite a handy gamer, but I still can't get into Dragon Roost cavern for love nor money... It's driving me insane.

I'm just trying to get into Dragon Roost Cavern... I know exactly what I've got to do (throw bomb flowers into the pot-holding statues to create a bridge across that lava pit) but I just can't do it.

I managed to blow up the closer statue on the right with no probs, but I simply cannot manage to knock the other one down. I've spent at least an hour just randomly hurling bombs at it, and no joy...

If I'm being a total mong, and there's some simple explanation... please tell me... step-by-step, so that I can stand in exactly the right spot facing exactly the right way to get the bomb in exactly the right place.

Otherwise I'm going to put the disc in a food-processor... which is a shame, because I rather enjoyed the 20 mins playing before I got stuck...

I always try to get everything. Whats worse is that I suceed. I remember Ocarina of Time, and there were these golden spider things, and there were 100 around the whole world. I am ashamed to say I hunted down every single one.

And the last Ganon was indeed easy, I hammered the 'a' button because before I kept missing the parry attacks.

Well the only Zelda game I've truly completely finished has to be Majora's Mask, but considering that was the easiest game of the lot it wasn't much of an effort.

Anyone got full hearts, all the sea maps, tingle statues.. in short, absolutely everything?

I'm replaying it in my jim-jams now trying to do it *all*.. not sure if I can be bothered with all the Nintendo Gallery pics though.

I helped and then I laughed because someone needed help with such a rudimentary problem.

I was trolling. Whatever that means.

I think you missed the turning in life that told you this is a topic for helping people with problems, not creating them.

Was this you first 3D Zelda game FFF? If so then you would have known Jumping was automatic from the classic Ocarina of Time to Majora's Mask, up to Wind Waker. They put it in all the 3D Zelda games. The GB Zelda games is where you had to get a feather item to jump and that is annoying, having to do jumps on there while holding a bomb or using the Pegasus shoes for a full blown charge jump across a huge gap.
