Majora's Mask
Termina has 72 hours before the moon falls. Link must learn transformation masks, conquer 4 dungeons, and help dozens of lost souls before the final confrontation with the ancient evil wearing the cursed Majora's Mask.
⏰ The 3-Day System
Time passes in real-time. The clock counts from Dawn of Day 1 to Final Hours of Day 3 (72 in-game hours). Song of Time resets to Day 1 (keeps masks, key items, dungeon completions — loses rupees and consumables). Inverted Song of Time slows the clock to one-third speed — play it immediately on every reset. Song of Double Time skips to the next morning or evening.
All 4 Temples
Each temple is guarded by a Giant trapped by Majora's power. Defeat the boss to free them.
Woodfall Temple
📍 Southern Swamp — accessible after learning Sonata of Awakening as Deku Link
Boss — Odolwa: Odolwa is a tribal warrior who dances to summon moths and fire rings. Use arrows to stun him mid-dance, then slash while he's stunned. When he summons moths, use Fire Arrows or Bombs to clear them. He has a clockwise spin attack — roll away from his rotation direction.
Snowhead Temple
📍 Mountain Village — accessible after learning Goron Lullaby and thawing Snowhead
Boss — Goht: Goht is a mechanical mammoth that charges in a circle. As Goron Link, roll alongside Goht and spin-attack into its legs. It launches bombs and electricity while running — keep rolling to avoid them. After enough hits it staggers. 10 hits total.
Great Bay Temple
📍 Great Bay — accessible after learning New Wave Bossa Nova as Zora Link
Boss — Gyorg: Gyorg is a massive fish. As Zora Link, swim in the water and attack Gyorg's underbelly when it charges. When stunned, shoot Gyorg from the platform with arrows. In phase 2 Gyorg spawns parasites — kill them before they drain your health. Use Ice Arrows to freeze Gyorg in the water phase.
Stone Tower Temple
📍 Ikana Canyon — accessible after inverting the temple with Light Arrows
Boss — Twinmold: Twinmold are giant centipede worms burrowing through sand. Wear Giant's Mask (found in dungeon) to fight at their size. Grab each worm by the tail and slam it into the ground repeatedly. Without Giant's Mask, use Light Arrows on the head gem when it surfaces.
