Amazon.com Review
The Zelda games from Nintendo comprise one of the best and most popular series of video games ever produced--and with good reason. Each title is more impressive than the last, with a larger game world, a richer story, and even more challenging puzzles. The latest entry, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, is by far the biggest and best of the bunch--but it's also the toughest, which is why you'll need a hand from BradyGames' excellent strategy guide. With a slick layout and tons of useful information, BradyGames' guide to Zelda is basically your one-stop shop for the prospective adventurer. Starting out with a quick description of the major characters, the book goes on to provide in-depth info on the gameplay basics, such as how to use the controls effectively and how to make the best use of Link's Ocarina. Additionally, the book describes each of the objects and weapons you'll come across in the game. The rest of this guide walks you through every quest, with screen shots and maps to help you get Link through in one piece. Over the course of your journey, you can also turn to the guide to find all of the game's secrets and to pick up helpful hints for each of the mini-games. --Michael Ryan

 Everything is not revealed September 19, 2008
As in the title, the book does not reveal everything. The Ice Arrows require a small quest and it isn't covered at all. The Ice Arrows are useless in this game but everything is not revealed.
It is hard to read without a very bright light source.
Overall though, it does get you through the game with a minimum of problems so I give it a 3. 1 point off for false advertising and 1 point off for being hard to read.
I can realy get further NOT!!!!!!!!! February 17, 2005

Well I can't get further on the trail up to the volcano!
I don't know how to get past the boulders.If.....I had the guide, it would do a lot of help.I rememberd that I had a dream a long time ago that was just like princess Zelda had.
It's a decent deal for the price. BAD choice of colors April 17, 2004

First off, I'm going to give everyone a disclaimer and say that I haveN'T beat the whole game yet, and I've looked at no more than half the guide.It seems >complete enough<. For a color guide with a MSRP of only ten dollars, with listings of all the equipment, gold skulltulas, and heart pieces, as well as what they do/what they're used for, what mode equipment you need, and what you need to be in (adult/young Link) It's at the very least a decent bargain. Unfortunately, Not all of the stuff is listed in the correct place. The skulltulas are but the only shining example I can think of to illustrate this. The chart that lists the skulltulas, equipment requirements, and mode only list 57 of the 100 of them. However, all of them listed are outside the dungeons. You'll still find the rest if you read the dungeon walkthroughs. Would've been nice to have them included in that handy chart list as well, as what's the point of having everything in one handy location if you still need to flip through other parts of the book to find them? My final gripe with this guide is that for portions of the walkthroughs and descriptions, you have black colored font on brown/dark grayish backgrounds. Sure, the backgrounds look neat, but it always makes it harder (not impossible goodness forbid) to read the words and distinguish bold type from regular type. Flip thorugh the pages yourself to judge this. Amazon let's you preview the first 10 pages or so. A guide should be as easy as possobile to follow, and those choice of colors just don't help out. My main reason that this guide got 3 stars and NOT 2 was mainly b/c this guide is about 5 to 10 dollars cheaper than most of the competition, so I can kind of forgive missing some info here and there. My two gripes above will be my "ten dollar lesson" for next time to flip through as much of a guide as possible, compare the layout and material to other guides, THEN take price into consideration.
 Worst Guide ever October 21, 2003

Talk about everything revealed. Not only does this guide have terrible descriptions, misleading maps, and other things, it doesn't tell you where everything is. This is frustrating when you try to get 100 skulltulas and it gives you 56! I don't care how much you love bradygames, you've never used a guide by this author. Do not be fooled by those other reviews. Trust me, they haven't ever looked at the guide. JUST DON'T GET THIS GUIDE!!!
