Board Guidelines

1 - We ask that you do not insult, ridicule or threaten other posters, old or new that they may be. Also, please, do not spam :)

2 - We ask that whenever you wish to write about later parts of a game, you apply the spoiler tags to said text. Especially if it is something about the game's story, bosses, puzzles or items.
In the help forums however, it is not required to use spoiler tags for anything except the game's story. Failure to do so may result in warning, suspension or banning; depending on the number of times this happened, the severity of the violation (such as describing the game's ending) and possible maliciousness of the violator.
Alternatively, you may create a topic with the words *spoilers for "game(s) name"* in its title. That will exempt everybody from using spoiler tags in that thread for spoilers about said game. However know that said thread may not be modded, unless specifically requested for a violation of these rules.

3 - Due to the high level and frequency of malicious spam bots posting in the forum, registration is required to post replies in any of our forums.

I know that if you play the original rom, once the timer reaches a certain point then the game is over. And then there is a rom that doesn't have a timer at all then you have the rom that has Link in it. It has a timer but it never expires or something. I don't understand it exactly. I know when you get to certain times something random happens, but it said when you die or something, you go back to the beginning of the week, I don't know what it means. I'm assuming that you never get a time over but the timer counts to give you the random effects. Could someone explain this for me?

Therefore we hacked different styles how to emulate the game. There are time related events, at different times there are happening various things, unlimited bombs etc. (1) the original bs game experience: you have a timer and need to complete the quest in 4 hours. If you fail (don't defeat Ganon) you get a bad end. (2) the LoZ style: you play as Link without timer. The time related events are now mapped to the triforce you collected. E.g. you get the unlimited bombs not at a certain time but after completing D7. You can't fail since the game is first over until you succeeded. (3) the Link version. This is kind of a hybrid. In case you don't manage to complete the game in 4 hours the timer is set to the start of week 4 until you defeated Ganon - therefore there is no way to fail either. (4) rh version is like the original bs experience (1) but has some nice features like complete real hardware compatibility and both maps are merged into one rom. --------------------
