Sunday Longplay - The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past Master Quest (SNES ROM Hack)

Hack by Con and Jeimuzu: http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/601/

This week on Sunday Longplay, it's a new twist on an old classic! Welcome to The Legend of Zelda: A Link To The Past Master Quest!

As part of a pre-order bonus for The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker on Gamecube, Nintendo offered an exclusive bonus disc that included a port of Ocarina of Time along with a special "Master Quest" version that included harder redesigned dungeons with altered progression, enemies spread differently throughout, and tougher enemies encountered earlier on, kind of like the second quest from the original NES Legend of Zelda. However, no such treatment was given to A Link To The Past, so the community made their own Master Quest for ALTTP!

Though the dungeon maps retain the same basic layout as in the original game, the doors and switches have been rearranged to drastically alter the route you have to go to get through them, the dark mazes have been completely reworked, and just like in OOT Master Quest, you encounter stronger enemy spreads. This leads to some really confusing dungeons! Even the Tower of Hera, normally one of the easier dungeons, becomes a puzzle in this hack. And don't even get me started on Ganon's Tower! There is also an optional additional patch to make Link take double damage a la Hero Mode from Skyward Sword onwards, and of course since I love a good challenge, I'm putting that patch in effect too!

There are actually two Master Quest hacks out there for ALTTP, but this is the good one. The other one does nothing more than add a whole bunch of spikes, holes, and bugs to the game. This one adds to the difficulty in a good way, the other one adds to the difficulty in a bad way.
