Tips
  • The Village of Outcasts is populated by Moblins, Hyu (Dark World Poes), skeletal Cuccos, and Pikku (fox-like thieves that steal Rupees, Bombs, and Arrows).
  • The Treasure Chest Game prize, Piece of Heart #19, is randomized. You may need to play multiple times. Using a Restore Point on the Virtual Console can help cheat the mini-game.
  • After obtaining the Heart Piece, consider maxing out your Bombs and Arrows at the Pond of Happiness in the Light World, or purchasing Blue Potions for your Bottles.
  • A regular item shop is located in the eastern part of the village, accessible by hammering down posts blocking the way.
