The '''Shooting Gallery''' is a minigame that appears in many [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' games]]. Its first appearance was in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', but has become more prominent since the series jumped to [[:Category:3D games|3D]].
'''Death Mountain''' is a tall, volcanic mountain located in [[Hyrule]] that has been featured in several [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''Zelda'' games]].

[[File:SmallOctopus.gif|left|30px|Wrong Target]]
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', Death Mountain is located in northern Hyrule and is in the appearance of a large, sprawling expanse of rock covering the northern border of the map. The mountain range is usually home to some of the more stronger enemies in the game, such as [[Lynel]]s. Occasionally boulders will also fall from the hills and the mountains also have a few streams and ponds that are home to [[River Zora|Zoras]].
 
  +
The game is found in side small a shop south of the [[Village of Outcasts]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', and involves shooting small octopus style targets as they move from left to right.
   
  +
[[File:Alien2.gif|left|30px|The Shooting Gallery Owner]]
Death Mountain also has two distinctive landmarks. The first being [[Lost Hills]], a mountainous counterpart of the maze-like [[Lost Woods]]. Beyond this maze is the fifth dungeon [[Lizard Labyrinth]] in the first quest. The mountain also has [[Spectacle Rock]], in which [[Ganon]] keeps his hideout, the [[Death Mountain Labyrinth]].
 
  +
While at the same time, targets shaped like hands move in the opposite direction in an attempt to stop the arrows hitting the main target. [[Link]] has 5 [[arrow]]s to shoot the more targets can; the more target he can hit in a row, the more [[Rupee]]s he wins.

[[File:Shooting Gallery OOT.png|left|thumb|The Shooting Gallery in Kakariko Village]]
  +
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the shooting gallery is situated in the [[Hyrule Castle Town#Ocarina of Time|Hyrule Market]], but moves to [[Kakariko Village]] after [[Ganon|Ganon's]] takeover. To win, Link must successfully shoot all ten Rupee-shaped targets in succession (some of which move) using fifteen shots. If Link hits at least eight targets, he will be given a free retry.
In ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]'', the area of Hyrule that was seen in the game's prequel, ''The Legend of Zelda'', can be seen in the deep south of [[Western Hyrule]], although was made considerably smaller but still retaining much of the same shape. This area of Hyrule also includes the Death Mountain region, but greatly expanded in ''The Adventure of Link''. Death Mountain, located south of the [[Water Town of Saria]], is comprised of a dozen or so different tunnels that house many enemies, several of which lead to dead ends if the wrong paths are taken. A few tunnels also have pools of lava, usually with a bridge suspended above them. Only a few paths lead to the southern region of Hyrule, where Link can find a [[hammer]] hidden in a cave.
 
   
  +
As a child, using the slingshot, the targets come up in a fixed order. The first time Link shoots every single one, he will receive a large [[Deku Seed]] bag, and subsequent wins will grant 50 rupees.
===''A Link to the Past''===
 
  +
Once more, Death Mountain returns as a huge mountain on the northern border of Hyrule in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. It is home to the [[Tower of Hera]], [[Spectacle Rock]], and many [[Deadrock]]s and [[Lynel]]s. Its [[Dark World]] counterpart is home to [[Turtle Rock (A Link to the Past)|Turtle Rock]] and [[Ganon's Tower]]. In the Japanese game, the mountain is only named Death Mountain in the Dark World. In the Light World, it is known as Mt. Hebra (ヘブラ山).
 
  +
As an adult, using the bow and arrows, the prize is a larger [[Quiver]], allowing Link to hold up to 40 arrows, but the targets appear in a random order. Adult Link can play even before he gets the Fairy Bow from the [[Forest Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Forest Temple]].

[[File:EDMT.jpg|thumb|200px|The Death Mountain Trail]]

[[File:TownShootingGalleryMM.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Clock Town Shooting Gallery]]
  +
There are three archery games in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora’s Mask]]''. One is found in [[East Clock Town]] under the title of Clock Town Shooting Gallery. In this game, red and blue [[Octorok]]s jump out of the water. The red ones must be shot for one point each; the blue ones, however, must be avoided, as a hit will cause the amount of time remaining to lower. While beating the high score of 39 red Octoroks is a worthy achievement (as it gives Link a larger [[Quiver]]), the true goal of the game is to attain a perfect score of 50 red Octoroks; the prize for which is a [[Heart Container#Piece of Heart|Piece of Heart]].
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', Death Mountain is home to the [[Goron]]s, a peaceful race of people who eat rocks and are exceptionally good at forging blades,<ref>{{cite|I am one of the Gorons, the stone-eating people who live on Death Mountain.|A Goron|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> and, among them, [[Biggoron]] who lives on the mountain itself. It can only be reached via a gate in [[Kakariko Village]], but anyone wishing to travel up to Death Mountain will need the [[Royal Family of Hyrule|King]]'s permission.<ref>{{cite|Climb up the stairs at the north end of the village to find the trail that leads up Death Mountain. But you need the King's permission to actually go up the mountain.|Kakariko Village soldier|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> It is said that the state of the mountain is reflected by the clouds surrounding the peak: if they look normal, then Death Mountain is at peace.<ref>{{cite|It is said that the clouds surrounding this peak reflect the condition of Death Mountain. When they look normal, it is at peace.|Kaepora Gaebora|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>
 
   
  +
[[File:SwampShootingGalleryMM.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Swamp Shooting Gallery]]
====Death Mountain Trail====
 
  +
The second game is found in the path to the [[Southern Swamp]], called the Swamp Shooting Gallery. Slightly more difficult than the Clock Town Shooting Gallery, the Swamp Shooting Gallery involves shooting [[Guay]]s and [[Wolfos]], all of which are constantly moving in various formations. When a perfect score is achieved, a larger Quiver is earned; doing said achievement once more results into a Piece of Heart gained, though Link must actually attain over 2200 points for the Heart Piece, otherwise only a Red Rupee is earned.
In order to reach the upper part of Death Mountain and the [[Goron City]] itself, Link must travel through the '''Death Mountain Trail''', which proves to be a challenge due to its abundance of [[Tektite]]s and giant boulders. However, the path to the Death Mountain Trail is initially closed off and will not open until Link shows [[Zelda's Letter]] to the knight guarding the gate.<ref>{{cite|The road is closed beyond this point! Can't you read the sign over there?|Death Mountain Trail Guard|Ocarina of Time}}</ref><ref>{{cite|What kind of funny game has our Princess come up with now?! OK, OK, all right. You can go now... Just be careful, Mr. Hero! Wah hah ha ha hah!|Death Mountain Trail Guard|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>
 
   
  +
The third Shooting Gallery is sponsored by [[Koume]], from the [[Swamp Tourist Center]], after Link clears [[Woodfall Temple]]. He has to shoot Koume's hanging target at least 20 times to win a Heart Piece, while avoiding shooting Koume herself. The minigame is set during the boat ride across all the [[Southern Swamp]] cyclic lake.
Death Mountain Trail takes Link to all of the prominent locations of Death Mountain. It is home to [[Dodongo's Cavern]], where young Link faces the giant [[King Dodongo]], eventually receiving the [[Goron's Ruby]] in the process. By scaling up the trail, the young hero can arrive to the home of the Gorons. [[Death Mountain Crater]], the inner part of the volcano of Death Mountain and the location of the [[Fire Temple (Ocarina of Time)|Fire Temple]], can be accessible either via the Goron City or by climbing up the mountain through the Death Mountain Trail.
 
  +
  +
Finally, as part of their [[Honey & Darling's Shop|daily attractions]], [[Honey and Darling]] invite Link for a target shooting game on day three, in [[Clock Town]]. It can be played as Link or [[Deku Link]], using either the [[Bow]] or Magic Bubbles, respectively. This Shooting Gallery is slightly different in that it's one part of a three part game, the first two parts of which have nothing to do with normal Shooting Gallery games.
 
{{clear}}
   
 
===''Oracle of Ages''===
Atop the mountain trail is a [[Great Fairy Fountain]] where the [[Great Fairy#Great Fairy of Power|Great Fairy of Power]] living within will grant Link the [[Magic Meter]] and the [[Spin Attack|Magic Spin Attack]].<ref>{{cite|You should go see the Great Fairy on top of Death Mountain! She will power you up!|Darunia|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> Another Great Fairy Fountain is found inside the crater, which doubles the young hero's magic meter.
 
  +
The '''Shooting Gallery''' is a short and easy minigame that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' in the past. The game involves hitting small orange balls that are fired at [[Link]], into different targets. The targets are low point blocks or high point Angels. It is also the easiest and fastest way to earn [[Gasha Seed]]s or [[Magic Ring|Magical Rings]] (only a limited amount of different types). The layout to the Goron Gallery on [[Rolling Ridge]] is much different than that of [[Lynna Village]]. The '''Goron Shooting Gallery''' is located in a cave in the land of [[Labrynna]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', though it exists only in the past.
   
  +
The shooting gallery game consists of hitting Link's [[sword]] at a ball so it hits certain blocks giving Link points. The Fairy Blocks are worth 100 points, Blue Blocks are worth 30 points, Red Blocks are worth -10 points, and if Link misses or hits an Imp Block it's -50 points. If Link can manage to get 100 points after 10 rounds in the [[Goron]] shooting gallery, he gets [[Lava Juice]]. After winning the Lava Juice, the prizes are not as satisfying and there is no actual reason to come back here, with the exception of the [[Boomerang]]. This Shooting Gallery is a copy of the same store in [[Lynna Village]] in the past. In the Lynna Village Shooting Gallery, the prizes include [[Gasha Seed]]s and [[Magic Ring|Magical Ring]]s depending on the number of points you earned.
During young Link's time, Death Mountain is an active volcano.<ref>{{cite|If you're going to climb Death Mountain, you should equip a proper shield! It is an active volcano, after all!|Hylian Knight|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> Any time the young hero approaches the northernmost part of the mountain in an attempt to climb it up to the crater, the volcano will activate itself. As such, Link must equip himself with a [[Hylian Shield|proper shield]] in order to safely climb it. [[Biggoron]], the giant Goron involved in the [[Biggoron's Sword]] sidequest, resides behind the mountain next to the crater entrance, although since he is always rolled up, Link cannot see him until he approaches him. [[Kaepora Gaebora]] can also be found top the highest point of the trail near the Great Fairy Fountain entrance. He will offer to give Link a ride down to Kakariko Village.<ref>{{cite|I will perch here and wait for you. When you're ready to go back down, I can help you!|Kaepora Gaebora|Ocarina of Time}}</ref>
 
   
  +
The awards for the Goron Shooting gallery differ from the Lynna village awards:
After Link withdraws the [[Master Sword]] from its [[Pedestal of Time|pedestal]], [[Ganon]]dorf revives the ancient dragon [[Volvagia]] and stirs up trouble at the depths of the crater, causing Death Mountain's white clouds to turn into red, fiery ones.<ref>{{cite|Ganondorf is causing trouble on Death Mountain again! He has revived the evil, ancient dragon Volvagia!|Darunia|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> It isn't until Link defeats Volvagia that Death Mountain returns to normal and the volcano stops its spontaneous eruptions, allowing the young hero to safely scale up the mountain.

Death Mountain is also the third level in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. It consists of three stages: [[Death Mountain Foothills]], [[The Mountain Path]], and [[Tower of Flames]].
+
In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', the shooting gallery game is owned by a [[Mage]] in the [[Village of the Blue Maiden]]. The [[Links|Four Links]] have 10 arrows to shoot [[Force Gem]]s in order to gain them while at the same time targets shaped like [[Octorok]]s move from right to left in an attempt to stop the arrows.
   
===''Twilight Princess''===
+
===''Phantom Hourglass''===
  +
After obtaining the Bow in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', [[Molida Island]] will house a new Shooting Gallery opened by [[Romanos]]. This version of the Shooting Gallery slightly varies from its previous counterparts in that the score for successfully shooting a target is not fixed; rather, upon shooting the first target, one gains 10 points. The second successive target shot will get 20 points, and so on until 50 points. Missing a target, or shooting the "little girl" target, will reset this back to 10 points, and the climb to 50 must begin again. Upon achieving a decent score, a larger [[Quiver]] will be awarded. Once gaining 2000 points, a [[Heart Container]] will be given. From there on out, [[Ship Parts]] will be awarded for good scores.
[[File:Death Mountain TP.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Death Mountain in ''Twilight Princess'']]
 
Death Mountain is featured once again in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', and is still home to the [[Goron]] tribe. Due to its volcanic nature, the mountain also boasts a number of geological curiosities, like powerful steam jets, and even mineral-rich [[Hot Spring]]s. While the mountain is not quite as active as it was during child Link's climb in ''Ocarina of Time'', Death Mountain experiences frequent eruptions early on in the game due to events related to the [[Twilight]].
 
   
  +
===''Spirit Tracks''===
Sticking to the Gorons' reputation as skilled metal smiths, metal structures have be erected around the face of the mountain to provide access to areas which are otherwise unreachable, and the Gorons themselves can give each other (and Link) a leg-up unscalable surfaces. The Gorons also have a [[Goron Mines|mine]] inside the volcanic interior of the mountain, where materials are mined and transported with the assistance of impressive magnetic cranes. The mine is also home to a number of familiar monsters, like [[Torch Slug]]s and [[Dodongo]]s.
 
  +
{{Main list|Goron Target Range|Pirate Hideout}}
 
  +
''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' features two sooting mini-games run by child [[Goron]]s: the [[Goron Target Range]] and the [[Pirate Hideout]]. The former is situated near the [[Goron Village]] and the Pirate Hideout is found in the [[Ocean Realm]]. The Pirate Hideout is an archery mini-game in which Link rescues a Goron child captured by the pirate [[miniblin]]s in order to earn [[treasure]] (as well as a big [[quiver]] and a [[Heart Container]]).
When Link first tries to climb up Death Mountain, the Gorons will attack him upon sight due to an order from the [[Gor Coron|Goron Elder]].<ref>{{cite|These lands ahead belong to the Goron tribe! The elder said no humans may pass!|Goron|Twilight Princess}}</ref> To be able to successfully get through the mountain, the young hero must use the [[Iron Boots]] to not get knocked down by the Gorons' roll attack and thus be able to stop them on their tracks. Link will eventually reach the main area of Death Mountain but will be greeted by a giant, falling rock from the mountain's volcano. After successfully evading the Gorons and using them to launch himself higher up into the mountains, the young hero enters the Gorons' dwelling, where he is informed by Gor Coron that he will not allow Link to enter the [[Goron Mines]], which are sacred to the Gorons, unless he beats him in a match of [[sumo]].<ref>{{cite|The mines beyond here are sacred to my tribe. Outsiders are not allowed. Unless... I could make an exception...but you would have to beat me in a contest of power. Are you willing to try that, little human?|Gor Coron|Twilight Princess}}</ref> Successfully defeating the Goron Elder will allow Link to enter the mines and obtain the second [[Fused Shadow]], saving [[Darbus]] and obtaining the Gorons' respect along the way.

=== ''Link's Crossbow Training'' ===
 
[[File:LCT Goron down.jpg|thumb|rightt|The Death Mountain stage of ''Link's Crossbow Training'']]
 
Death Mountain appears in [[Link%27s_Crossbow_Training#Stage_2|Stage 2]] of ''[[Link's Crossbow Training]]'' as the '''Goron Target Practice'''. The central area of the Goron's lair is the first two screens of the stage. Gorons will stand in various formations, roll in place, then spring up with either regular, gold, or false targets. The screen changes every 20 seconds, all with different formations of Gorons.
 
 
===''Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland''===
 
In ''[[Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland]]'', a mountain called [[Mount Desma]] (デスマヤマ Desuma Yama) appears. This might be just a new name for Death Mountain, as in one of the [[Yamatami]] tribe's ancient books is written that Mount Desma is "the Mountain of Death". Comparision of the Japanese names further suggests this. "Yama" is the Japanese word for "mountain", whereas "Desuma" differs only one Japanese letter from "Desu".

===''A Link to the Past'' comic===
 
[[File:Death Mountain (ALttP comic).png|thumb|left|Death Mountain in the ''A Link to the Past'' comic]]
 
In the [[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (Comic)|''A Link to the Past'' comic]], Death Mountain is on the borders of the [[Desert of Mystery]], unlike in the game, where Death Mountain is far north and the desert is to the south-west.
 
 
While in the Desert of Mystery, Link is guided by [[Sahasrahla]]'s telepathy to Death Mountain.<ref>{{Cite book|quote=Link! Your priority should be finding the next pendant... Go to the Tower of Hera atop Death Mountain....|book=A Link to the Past|publisher=Nintendo Power|page=4}}</ref> Link arrives to the mountain and stumbles upon a portal, which activates itself and shows a vision of two people standing with his uncle.<ref>{{cite book|quote=Link... Link... We are here with our brother...in the world of darkness....|book=A Link to the Past|publisher=Nintendo Power|page=6}}</ref> Believing them to be his parents,<ref>{{cite book|quote=Uncle?!

Sahasrahla warns that the power of the [[Dark World]] turns the inhabitants into a reflection of their heart, and Link's hatred of Agahnim, although justifiable, would turn him into a beast if he were to enter.<ref>{{cite book|quote=You penetrated the gate to the Dark World... That wicked realm has the power to change your body to reflect your heart. The emotions now in your heart are negative and evil! You nearly became a '''beast'''! [...] Yes, Link, but you can never win with hatred alone... Even if you were victorious, darkness would consume you! |book=A Link to the Past|publisher=Nintendo Power|page=7}}</ref> Shortly afterward, Zelda appears to Link and explains that they are in a dream, for if two people dream the same thing, they will meet.<ref>{{cite book|quote=We are in our dream...

==Trivia==
 
==Trivia==
  +
*When Link shoots a target in ''Ocarina of Time'', an equivalent rupee-shaped marker appears on the floor - however, while the green and blue targets cause identically-colored markers to appear, shooting the red targets will generate a purple marker.
*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'', [[Woodfall Temple]] is housed inside a dormant volcano filled with water. Some assume this mountain to be [[Termina|Termina's]] counterpart of Death Mountain.
 
  +
*In ''Ocarina of Time'', the wanted poster on the wall bears some resemblance to [[Vaati|Vaati's Wrath]] and the [[Nightmare]]'s final form.
*Also in ''Majora's Mask'', [[Woodfall]], from the outside, looks incredibly similar to the Death Mountain of ''Ocarina of Time'', down to the ring of smoke surrounding the top.
 
  +
[[File:Vaati OoT.png|center|250px|thumb|Vaati's and the Nightmare's likeness on a poster in ''Ocarina of Time'']]
*Many fans believe that Death Mountain appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', as [[Dragon Roost Island]].
 
  +
*Most rings Link can get in the Shooting Gallery in Lynna Village are fairly common but there is [[Magic Ring#Light Ring L-2|one that is quite rare]].
*The music of Death Mountain in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' is a mix of a new drum beat and that of the original music from [[Goron City]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''.
 
  +
*In ''Oracle of Ages'', it is easier to hit targets on the left then the right because of the hand Link swings his sword.
  +
*The owner of the Lynna Village shop looks very much like [[smw:Luigi|Luigi]] from the [[smw:Mario (series)|''Super Mario Bros.'' games]].

Revision as of 20:48, 12 March 2012

Template:Minigame The Shooting Gallery is a minigame that appears in many The Legend of Zelda games. Its first appearance was in A Link to the Past, but has become more prominent since the series jumped to 3D.

Appearances

A Link to the Past

Wrong Target

The game is found in side small a shop south of the Village of Outcasts in A Link to the Past, and involves shooting small octopus style targets as they move from left to right.

The Shooting Gallery Owner

While at the same time, targets shaped like hands move in the opposite direction in an attempt to stop the arrows hitting the main target. Link has 5 arrows to shoot the more targets can; the more target he can hit in a row, the more Rupees he wins.

Ocarina of Time

Shooting Gallery OOT

The Shooting Gallery in Kakariko Village

In Ocarina of Time, the shooting gallery is situated in the Hyrule Market, but moves to Kakariko Village after Ganon's takeover. To win, Link must successfully shoot all ten Rupee-shaped targets in succession (some of which move) using fifteen shots. If Link hits at least eight targets, he will be given a free retry.

As a child, using the slingshot, the targets come up in a fixed order. The first time Link shoots every single one, he will receive a large Deku Seed bag, and subsequent wins will grant 50 rupees.

As an adult, using the bow and arrows, the prize is a larger Quiver, allowing Link to hold up to 40 arrows, but the targets appear in a random order. Adult Link can play even before he gets the Fairy Bow from the Forest Temple.

Majora's Mask

Clock Town Shooting Gallery

There are three archery games in Majora’s Mask. One is found in East Clock Town under the title of Clock Town Shooting Gallery. In this game, red and blue Octoroks jump out of the water. The red ones must be shot for one point each; the blue ones, however, must be avoided, as a hit will cause the amount of time remaining to lower. While beating the high score of 39 red Octoroks is a worthy achievement (as it gives Link a larger Quiver), the true goal of the game is to attain a perfect score of 50 red Octoroks; the prize for which is a Piece of Heart.

Swamp Shooting Gallery

The second game is found in the path to the Southern Swamp, called the Swamp Shooting Gallery. Slightly more difficult than the Clock Town Shooting Gallery, the Swamp Shooting Gallery involves shooting Guays and Wolfos, all of which are constantly moving in various formations. When a perfect score is achieved, a larger Quiver is earned; doing said achievement once more results into a Piece of Heart gained, though Link must actually attain over 2200 points for the Heart Piece, otherwise only a Red Rupee is earned.

The third Shooting Gallery is sponsored by Koume, from the Swamp Tourist Center, after Link clears Woodfall Temple. He has to shoot Koume's hanging target at least 20 times to win a Heart Piece, while avoiding shooting Koume herself. The minigame is set during the boat ride across all the Southern Swamp cyclic lake.

Finally, as part of their daily attractions, Honey and Darling invite Link for a target shooting game on day three, in Clock Town. It can be played as Link or Deku Link, using either the Bow or Magic Bubbles, respectively. This Shooting Gallery is slightly different in that it's one part of a three part game, the first two parts of which have nothing to do with normal Shooting Gallery games.

Oracle of Ages

The Shooting Gallery is a short and easy minigame that appears in Oracle of Ages in the past. The game involves hitting small orange balls that are fired at Link, into different targets. The targets are low point blocks or high point Angels. It is also the easiest and fastest way to earn Gasha Seeds or Magical Rings (only a limited amount of different types). The layout to the Goron Gallery on Rolling Ridge is much different than that of Lynna Village. The Goron Shooting Gallery is located in a cave in the land of Labrynna in Oracle of Ages, though it exists only in the past.

The shooting gallery game consists of hitting Link's sword at a ball so it hits certain blocks giving Link points. The Fairy Blocks are worth 100 points, Blue Blocks are worth 30 points, Red Blocks are worth -10 points, and if Link misses or hits an Imp Block it's -50 points. If Link can manage to get 100 points after 10 rounds in the Goron shooting gallery, he gets Lava Juice. After winning the Lava Juice, the prizes are not as satisfying and there is no actual reason to come back here, with the exception of the Boomerang. This Shooting Gallery is a copy of the same store in Lynna Village in the past. In the Lynna Village Shooting Gallery, the prizes include Gasha Seeds and Magical Rings depending on the number of points you earned.

The awards for the Goron Shooting gallery differ from the Lynna village awards:

Goron Shooting Gallery Awards:

Lynna Village Shooting Gallery Awards:

  • 0–49 points = Nothing
  • 50–149 points = Recovery Heart
  • 150–249 points = 30 Rupees
  • 250–349 points = Gasha Seed
  • 350+ points = Magical Ring

Four Swords Adventures

In Four Swords Adventures, the shooting gallery game is owned by a Mage in the Village of the Blue Maiden. The Four Links have 10 arrows to shoot Force Gems in order to gain them while at the same time targets shaped like Octoroks move from right to left in an attempt to stop the arrows.

Phantom Hourglass

After obtaining the Bow in Phantom Hourglass, Molida Island will house a new Shooting Gallery opened by Romanos. This version of the Shooting Gallery slightly varies from its previous counterparts in that the score for successfully shooting a target is not fixed; rather, upon shooting the first target, one gains 10 points. The second successive target shot will get 20 points, and so on until 50 points. Missing a target, or shooting the "little girl" target, will reset this back to 10 points, and the climb to 50 must begin again. Upon achieving a decent score, a larger Quiver will be awarded. Once gaining 2000 points, a Heart Container will be given. From there on out, Ship Parts will be awarded for good scores.

Spirit Tracks

Template:Main list Spirit Tracks features two sooting mini-games run by child Gorons: the Goron Target Range and the Pirate Hideout. The former is situated near the Goron Village and the Pirate Hideout is found in the Ocean Realm. The Pirate Hideout is an archery mini-game in which Link rescues a Goron child captured by the pirate miniblins in order to earn treasure (as well as a big quiver and a Heart Container).

Trivia

  • When Link shoots a target in Ocarina of Time, an equivalent rupee-shaped marker appears on the floor - however, while the green and blue targets cause identically-colored markers to appear, shooting the red targets will generate a purple marker.
  • In Ocarina of Time, the wanted poster on the wall bears some resemblance to Vaati's Wrath and the Nightmare's final form.

  • Most rings Link can get in the Shooting Gallery in Lynna Village are fairly common but there is one that is quite rare.
  • In Oracle of Ages, it is easier to hit targets on the left then the right because of the hand Link swings his sword.
  • The owner of the Lynna Village shop looks very much like Luigi from the Super Mario Bros. games.
