/vr/ - Retro Games

easy answer: minish cap


challenging answer: traveling between the phases of day. morning, evening, night. maybe a puzzle where you need to change a shadow being casted off a tree or a god ray because the sun is now to the east instead of west to open paths to continue. maybe play with high and low tides revealing submerged stuff on the coast. maybe a more involved town element where you can only move about at night to avoid guards or during the day for avoid thieves.

symbol of importance? ages was an instrument. seasons was a rod. third game could be that paintbrush nayru has there that would have been farores instead. you streak paint strips across the screen like mario sunshine to change the color temperature and therefore time of day, maybe dawns and nights are bluer, days and dusks are redder.

how many phases? not sure. if ages had 2 and seasons had 4 would the 3rd game be either 3 or 6. 3 would be an awkward amount for day periods. morning, day and evening? what about night then? 6 would also be weird. morning, early day? afternoon, late day? evening, night

farore personality could be that shes a free spirit. painting abstract pictures with paint all over her. pretty cute/child-like in comparison to the mature/elegant nayru and passionate/tomboyish din

world? iirc one game was big on zora and the other was gorons so the third game has to be kokiri therefore be more foresty.

realms? seasons had that underground lava world and ages had the under water place. this third game could be a sky location like minish cap.

i like to imagine what the 3rd game would have been. if one is about seasons and one is ages what would the last one be? time of day? morning, day, evening, night? ages have phases of 2 time periods and seasons has 4 seasons. would secrets have 6 phases? 8? if nayru has "elegant goddess" vibe and din has "primal tomboy" energy i bet farore would be "goofy cutie". seasons has a wand and ages has an instrument. ages would have... magic a hat link would wear? what if minish cap uses a lot of what oracle of secrets was supposed to be?

Here's your third game, bro.
Not a very convincing prank, but back then I found it funny someone went through all the trouble.
