Guide yourself through Onox's Castle in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages. Learn strategies for mini-bosses and the Demon General to save Din and restore Holodrum.

Alright, so you've made it through the Temple Remains and Northern Peak. The Maku Seed and Essences of Nature should have cleared the way into Onox's Castle. Let's get this done!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    F-2 (Entrance): You'll start here. If you're low on life, you can head left or right to find a Faerie. To collect it, you'll need to defend yourself with your Shield until all the tiles fly into you. Knightwing4 suggests using the Magic Boomerang to grab the faerie quickly before the door closes, which can save you some time. Once you're ready, head up to the next area.
  2. 2
    E-2: This room is filled with Wizrobes. Take 'em all out, then move on up.
  3. 3
    D-2: Here you'll face Knights and Wall Masters. Defeat them all, and then proceed upwards.
  4. 4
    C-2 (Mini-Boss): It's time to fight Facade again. You can check the Bestiary for tips on this guy. After you defeat him, head up.
  5. 5
    B-2: This room is full of pots! Smash 'em all to stock up on supplies like hearts and bombs, then head up.
  6. 6
    A-2 (Boss): Get ready to face the Demon General, Onox! He's a tough one, so consult the Bestiary if you need a strategy. After you defeat him, you'll see Din trapped in a crystal. But just as you think you're done, the floor gives way and Link falls!
  7. 7
    Dark Dragon: Now you have to fight Onox's true form, the Dark Dragon. This battle is notoriously long, so be patient and stick with it.
Tips
  • Remember to use the Magic Boomerang if you need to grab faeries quickly in the entrance room (F-2) to save time.
  • Don't forget to smash all the pots in room B-2 to ensure you're well-stocked on supplies before the final boss fights.
  • The battles against Facade, Onox, and the Dark Dragon can be challenging. Don't get discouraged if you don't win on the first try; learn their patterns and keep at it!
