This guide will take you through the entire fifth level in the original legend of Zelda game for the Nintendo Entertainment System. This is level five from the first quest of the game.

HOW TO GET TO LEVEL 5

It’s easy to get to the fifth level in this Zelda game. If you have done some exploring, then you may already know about the lost hills area in the northeast part of the world map. Go to this lost hills area and head north five times. This is the secret to finding the entrance to level 5.

LEVEL 5 WALKTHROUGH

As you go in the entrance, take the door to the east. Inside this room you will find Pols Voices which can be killed by using your bow and arrows. Defeat all of the enemies and take the key that appears. Go back to the entrance room you were just in and go through the only other door you see. Use your candle to light up the room and defeat all of the enemies. One of them is carrying a key. Go into the locked door to the east.

In this room you will find the old man who will tell you some secret about the boss of this level. He tells you that “Digdogger hates certain kinds of sound”. Go to the last room you were in and head north. You will find dodongos here, so make sure you have plenty of bombs for this room. Throw bombs in the mouth of the dodongos to defeat them all. Once defeated. the sealed door to the west will open.

Use your step ladder to cross the red lava part and defeat the enemies. You will receive a key once you have finished. Now go south and defeat all of these enemies. In this room place a bomb on the west wall and go into this new room. Inside you will discover lots of blue darknuts. Defeat these enemies, and then push the most far left block to reveal a hidden staircase. Take the staircase to the next room.

Inside this room, unlock the door to the west. You’ll find more darknuts in this place. Defeat all of the darknuts and then push the block to the right. Take the stairs to the treasure of this level, the recorder. If you are having problems with the blue darknuts, here are a couple of tips. Try to keep your health level completely full. If it is, you can fire sword  beams at the blue darknuts. Also, you can stand in doorways and the darknuts will not be able to hurt you. Don’t walk too far into the doorway though, or you will exit into the next room.

Now, go back to the previous room and go through the south locked door. Defeat the enemies and get the key here. Place a bomb on the east wall to find another hidden cave. The old man in this room will sell you bombs for one hundred rupies. Now, go back two rooms and push the left block to reveal the staircase. Go into this room that you were in before with the darknuts, and head through the blowed out east wall. In this room, place another bomb on this east wall.

Go into this new secret entrance and defeat the enemies inside. You will need to use your candle again to see what you are doing. Now head through the northern door. You will find more dodongos here to defeat. This level requires a lot of bombs, and it would be nice to have 100 rupies to pay the old man to buy more!! Defeat all of the dodongos, then go north. Grab the map and head back into the previous room. Go east and use your candle. Now defeat all of the enemies here.

Go through the north door now, and defeat the mummies. They will give you a key when you have defeated them. Go north and use your candle again, to fight three red darknuts. You can use your stepladder on the lava to avoid being hit by the red darknuts. They will give you the compass once you defeat them.

Now, go north and defeat all of the enemies. Grab the key, and head through the door to the west. Do the same thing again here. Defeat all of the enemies, grab the key, and continue going west. Keep going west and you will discover the fifth level boss, digdogger.

HOW TO DEFEAT DIGDOGGER

This boss appears to be difficult, but is actually one of the easier bosses in the game. If you strike your sword at digdogger, you can’t hurt him at all. He seems to be invincible. But if you remember what the old man told you, use your recorder on him, and he will shrink. Once he shrinks, keep using your sword on him. In a few strokes of the sword he will be defeated, and you can collect a heart piece and the fifth piece of the triforce. This completes the fifth level in the original Nintendo game, The Legend Of Zelda.
