Okay, guide to L:8 it is.
First, You go up and defeat the Bat guy. Go through the left door and defeat all of the snakes. Go up and defeat the Hinox. Go left and push the thing to make a bridge to the bottom part of the screen accessible. Go down and get the chest. Go left and defeat Rolling Bones. Go up and defeat the bat for a key. Go down two screens and get the chest. Fall down the eye purposely to warp you back to the beginning.
Go up 2 screens from the beginning and go right. Push the device to make a path to the bottom right (not the stairs). Go right and poke wall on the right until you find the part you can bomb (it rings when you found it). Bomb it and enter. Hit the crystal switch and bomb the cracked wall on the south side of the room. Push the device to clear all of the pits to get a key (keep trying, don't give up!). Head back left and avoid the chest, there's a blob inside. Go left two screens and you'll be back in the familiar room with the bat.
Go up again and right. Push the device in between the two blocks that slick out into the lava and push the one on your right into the lava. Go into the passageway reveiled. Unlock the block with a key and head left. Use a missile (a bomb and arrow together [equip the bombs and the bow and press A and B together]) on the wall behind the lava. Enter the new room and bomb the left wall where it's cracked.
Go into this doorway and shoot the statue in the room in the eye with an arrow for a key. Go up and enter the stairway to exit to outside on Tal Tal Heights. Pick up the Piece of Heart and go right to discover a new warp hole. Warp away if you need hearts, but if you don't, go right and enter the door.
Defeat the Dodongos by throwing bombs down at them from your perch high above them. Once they're defeated, get the chest (key). Go right and defeat the two mummies for a key. Head left 4 screens (unlock the door on your way) and go down and right to be in the dark room you used a missile to get into. Unlock the block in this room and continue right. Hookshot across the chasm and unlock the block. Go down the stairs.
Jump to the moving platform avoiding the fireballs and make it to the other side of the screen. Go right and jump from platform to platform to find the exit. Go up.
Go down as soon as you emerge from the stairs and do battle with Boxin' Blaino. Charge up your sword and when he's standing sill, punching air, let 'er rip! If you have the L:2 sword and the Red Clothes, one hit from a charged up sword and Blaino will throw his towel in. Go up and get the Fire rod from the chest. Sometimes you'll have to trek back to the crystal switch (I don't know why it resets itself...take advantage of the warp that gets created when you defeat a mini boss if it does reset). After the Fire rod is in your arsenal, go back to the start of the level (Manbo's Mambo).
Go up and defeat the bat (use the fire rod for a one-hit KO). Go up again and to the right. Push the device to make a pathway to the staircase. Go down it.
Burn all of the ice and go to the left. Make a staircase out of the ice by jumping and using the fire rod while in the air. Exit down the ladder.
Unlock the door on your left and defeat Cue Ball. Go up and push the device so it fill all of the holes. Get the chest that appears when you do this (Nightmare Key). Head back to start (again! Manbo's Mambo--your new best friend).
Go up a screen and defeat the bat (hmm...I swear I've heard that somewhere). Go up and right. Push the device to the lower right path (not the stairs) and go right. Go up the stairs.
Melt all of the ice and jump into the small exit hole. Make a staircase out of the ice in this screen and go down the ladder. Unlock the Nightmare door and defeat Hot Head.
To defeat Hot Head, simply use your fire rod on him until he's dead. Go up and claim the Thunder Drum! |
