Tarin
A kind-hearted chap with a fondness for mushrooms and an insatiable appetite to boot!

A wise old bird with no shortage of advice to impart. Be sure to listen to what he has to say!
![NSwitch_ZeldaLinksAwakening_Char_OldMan.png](https://fs-prod-cdn.nintendo-europe.com/media/images/01_website_elements/other_elements/grey.gif)
Old Man Ulrira
No one knows the island quite like Ulrira. He’s a tad shy in person though, so give him a phone call if you need some guidance.
![NSwitch_ZeldaLinksAwakening_Char_Madam.png](https://fs-prod-cdn.nintendo-europe.com/media/images/01_website_elements/other_elements/grey.gif)
Madam MeowMeow
This madam is a fan of…Chain Chomps?! How strange. Hmm, well, this one is called BowWow and is harmless…apparently!

By collecting gear and items on his travels, Link can explore more of the island and unearth its many secrets. Certain items can even be exchanged with the locals.
Here are just some of the island’s unique tools and treasures:
Pegasus Boots
Pop these boots on to run at incredible speeds. Don’t worry about bumping into stuff!
Bow
This legendary ranged weapon carries an equally legendary price tag in the local shop. Don’t even think about stealing it…
Hookshot
Pull yourself towards objects, fire it at foes – the Hookshot does it all!
Bombs
A go-to item when there’s an obstacle or fragile-looking wall that needs blowing up.
Roc's Feather
Use this nifty feather to jump over pits and dodge incoming attacks – in style!
Seashells
These shells are hidden all over the island, so collecting them is sure to pay off at some point, right?
Boomerang
Throw this boomerang at enemies to stun them or grab hard-to-reach objects. It’s also pretty good at cutting grass!

![NSwitch_ZeldaLinksAwakening_headline_wish_en.png](https://fs-prod-cdn.nintendo-europe.com/media/images/01_website_elements/other_elements/grey.gif)

Trendy Game
Try your luck at this tricky crane game to get your hands on all sorts of curious items…like that Yoshi doll. Who knows what that’s used for?
Rapids Ride
Enjoy a scenic trip of Koholint by raft as you float down rapids and waterfalls. Be sure to grab as many rupees as you can so you can afford the next ride!
Fishing Pond
See what’s biting at the fishing pond to net yourself some prizes. No, you don’t need to bring your own rod.
Town Tool Shop
This shop is stocked with all sorts of useful wares. Be warned: the owner’s policy when it comes to dealing with shoplifters is… Just don’t!
Telephone Booth
If you’re stuck on your quest or if you just want to chat, why not visit a Telephone Booth? Don’t worry – calls are free!

![NSwitch_ZeldaLinksAwakening_headline_amiibo_en.png](https://fs-prod-cdn.nintendo-europe.com/media/images/01_website_elements/other_elements/grey.gif)
If you have an amiibo (sold separately) from The Legend of Zelda series, you can unlock additional chambers and save your favourite layouts to them for safe keeping. There’s also this adorable Link amiibo launching alongside the game that unlocks Shadow Link as a foe in your Chamber Dungeons!
