The Legend of Zelda‘s Game Boy installment, featuring The Mechanic. Can TIM?!? wake up a lazy fish?

Page 1 | 2 | 3

Part 18: We tackle fasteagle’s Tower! Where Kirby hangs out, apparently. Will we get the scroll weapon?!?

Part 19: Can we defeat fasteagle and retrieve the Keytar of Doom, or is he too fast? Also, the Red Flapper gets renamed Mrs. Buttfranklin, which doesn’t make much more sense in context.

Part 20: Tonight we dine on Turtle Rock. Also, we strike out with Marin, and Pachelbel’s Canon is overblarghed!

Part 21: In true Player and Doodler fashion, the eighth dungeon of the game somehow turns into tongue-twisters galore, a disco party, and a Fiddler on the Roof parody.

Part 22: The game finally ends when we defeat Forrest Whittaker and wake up a parade float.

See the videos!

From Part 1:

: The Wind Fish’s egg, together with the title pronounced like a moron.

: The miniboss Hinox (who is not Abobo from Double Dragon) is confused by his own bombs.

: The boss of Bottle Grotto, the second dungeon. He’ll kill you in your nightmares!

: The flowers surrounding Bottle Grotto. Turns out they are called Goponga Flowers, not Bow Wow Edibles.

: Inspired by an enemy. You won’t be getting his Golden Leaf! I have no idea what happened to the “D”.

: Sweet lil’ Bow Wow (not the rapper) is the champ chain chomp! Say that three times fast!

: The alligators and hippos from the “Dance of the Hours” segment from Disney’s Fantasia spend their off hours doing art in the Animal Village. It makes sense, people.

: You’ll take a picture, whether you want to or not! The mouse photographer becomes a bully.

: Chuchus, from the Legend of Zelda series. We thought they were in Link’s Awakening, but turns out we were either thinking of Zols (red or green blobs that jump out of the ground and sometimes split into smaller ones) or Buzz Blobs (walking suggestive-looking blob creatures who zap you with electricity if you try to slice them).

: Hey, it’s the first dungeon opening from the original Legend of Zelda! Was it also in Link’s Awakening? The debate rages on!

: Why if it isn’t our old friend Merv Doorway, the coolest dungeon door there is! Based on the entrance to Angler’s Tunnel.

: Based on a statue found in a dungeon. Google says they’re called Eye Guards! Or Eyegores! Who knows?

: The Angler Fish singing Manbo’s Mambo #5! He’s the easiest boss ever!

From Part 2:

: The frog Mamu sings the worst song ever made.

: Famed pinhole camera photographer/Dog Daze creator Gray Chang apparently makes a cameo. Also there’s a fish.

: Pits: a Zelda staple! Also some Buzz Blobs.

: Pots: a Zelda staple! No Buzz Blobs though.

: The L-2 Bracelet lets you lift giant statues, but it doesn’t make them any lighter.

: Gohma, the boss. Giant eyes are kinda the Doodler’s thing, I guess…

: The mural in the Southern Face Shrine that tells you the Secret of Koholint Island. It’s quite clear, isn’t it?

: Taking an Octorock to its logical conclusion. Wiggedy-Wow!

From Part 3:

: Based on a brain fart comment. It doesn’t make much more sense in context, I’m afraid…

: Is the Wind Fish egg really a space egg atop a volcano? Wait, what?

: A Beamos trying to kill a little girl! (It’s Zoe from the Doodler’s webcomic).

: What if Link were a duck? What if?!?

: That Cyclops miniboss shows up like twelve times. I don’t care enough to look up his name. (OK, fine, it’s a Hinox.)

: Link (aka TIM?!?) gets the L-2 sword by the Power of Greyskull…

: Eagle’s Tower, the seventh dungeon. Careful: he’s a fasteagle…

: Man, the Wind Fish just needs to go to bed earlier, poor dude…

Part 1: Our hero washes up on a strange island. He looks like Link, but he is actually…TIM?!?

Part 2: TIM?!? ventures into the Tail Cave, only to find that somebody stole the town’s Chain Chomp!

Part 3: The Bottle Grotto is apparently where Double Dragon’s Abobo really let himself go.

Part 4: We do three or four things. Also, we fish. And Crazy Tracy raises the content rating of this game to rival Police Quest!

Part 5: Even TIM?!? can’t resist the allure of a square castle!

Part 6: Key Cavern has great style! I can’t say enough good things about this style!

Part 7: TIM?!? goes on a date! Is this his big chance?

Part 8 contains great..COLOR commentary! Get it? Get it? Ah, nevermind.

Part 9: We enter Merv Doorway to fight the easiest boss ever.
