Questions for those who have played LoZ Master Quest

This being the only Zelda game that I've never gotten around to beating, i have no idea what to expect from it. My brother told me that the game is ridiculously hard.

Anyways, i was wondering just how much harder the dungeons are than the original (I've played through the original enough that none of the dungeon's take me much longer than 30 minutes)?

second question. did they update places like the Well, Ice Cavern and Gerudos fortress as well as the regular dungeons?

thanks in advance

It's not really 'ridiculously hard'. Aside from the remixed dungeons, it's the same game.

In general, yes... the dungeons are more challenging, and you may find yourself searching around a bit more than on your first time through the original.

Oddly enough, the water temple (the generally-agreed-upon 'most annoying' temple) actually got easier. So that's kind of a nice break.

You'll notice some of the puzzles are tougher right from the first dungeon. Nothing too demanding, but it should give you some idea of what to expect.

As for question number 2, I don't remember if the Gerudo grounds have been changed (I don't believe so, but someone can correct me if I'm wrong), but I believe all dungeons - including the Well and Ice Caverns - have been altered.

Every dungeon, including the Ice Temple, Well, and Gerudo Training Grounds have been altered. The maps are exactly the same, but the interior of each room, as well that the order you visit them in, is changed. If you're familiar enough with OoT, you shouldn't have too much trouble. I got stuck a few times, but never for long. Like Freedan said, the Water Temple is easier. For me, the Spirit Temple was the hardest.

I wouldn't say it's "ridiculously hard", it's certainly not as hard as Oracle of Ages or Zelda II, but it is more challenging than any of the other 3D Zelda games. Be ready to get stuck alot

Ah, damn... the Training Grounds. I was thinking of the carpenter search-and-rescue.

It's all good, that's what first came to my mind too.
