I get multiple picks.

I am going to pick my favorite dungeon as well.

So I guess this is a mini dungeon, but I want to go with the bottom of the well in Ocarina of Time because it's so good and weird and just haunted the nightmares.

Yeah.

of every child who played this game.

So it's a very small dungeon.

And if you know where to go, it's not too hard.

You can get around in a very short time.

But of course, the first time you play it, you're going to get lost.

You're going to not know what you're doing.

This is the first time you meet the dead hand in the game, which is one of the creepiest enemies.

The whole idea of a severed hand that attacks you is a real Zelda staple for some reason.

has appeared in many FromSoftware games since then.

I don't know that we can prove that Miyazaki was influenced by Zelda, but it does seem possible, doesn't it?

And the dead hand in this is perfect, but also just the theming around getting the Lens of Truth, which is the item that allows you to see hidden pathways.

This is where you get that item, and then, of course, that helps you with the Shadow Temple later, and...

the different challenges there.

But the idea of having to navigate through just this really spooky bastion of evil that resides in this well and has kind of nothing to do with Ganon...

And it's just its own, like, by the way.

It's just there.
