Some events happen only at specific times, and many characters follow their own schedules throughout the three days. It is also possible to learn melodies that slow the time passage significantly or advance the clock instantly to the next day. However, the player can return to the first day at any time by playing a song on the ocarina, saving all quest-related progress and inventory but losing other items such as ammunition or money (unless stored in a bank). If the player hasn't completed all the objectives within three in-game days, the moon falls on Termina, annihilating everyone and ending the game. The game has an internal clock, with one hour roughly corresponding to one real-life minute. Compared to the previous Zelda games, this installment is more oriented towards interaction with NPCs and has a larger variety of items, optional quests, and mini-games.Īlso unique to this entry is its time system. The game retains the traditional elements of Zelda games (dungeon exploration, sword fighting, bows, bombs, heart containers, etc.) as well as those introduced in its immediate predecessor, such as active blocking with a shield, various throwing items, and the usage of melodies played on the ocarina to solve puzzles. It utilizes the same engine and visual style, and virtually identical interface. Majora's Mask is a direct sequel to Ocarina of Time. Link has exactly three days to find a way to prevent this from happening. A meeting with a wandering mask salesman reveals that the Skull Kid is wearing Majora's Mask, an ancient item used in hexing rituals, which calls forth a menacing moon hovering over the land of Termina. Shortly afterward Tatl joins Link and agrees to help him revert to his native form. Skull Kid turns Link into a small plant-like creature known as Deku Scrub and takes away his horse and his magical ocarina. In the Lost Woods he is ambushed by Skull Kid, an imp who dons a mysterious mask, accompanied by the fairies Tael and Tatl. After having fulfilled Princess Zelda's request and saved the land of Hyrule from grave danger, Link departs on his horse Epona.
