As the title of the Labyrinth suggests, its [[Map]] resembles the shape of a snake. The interior of this Labyrinth appears to be made of stone bricks, like most Labyrinths in {{TLoZ|-}}, with its primary color being dark yellow. This Labyrinth introduces dark rooms that [[Link]] cannot see in without [[Fire]]. To create Fire and illuminate the room, Link must either use a [[Candle]] or a [[Magical Rod]] in combination with the Book of Magic. It also introduces two enemies, the [[Vire]] and the [[Like Like]]. The main item of this Labyrinth in First Quest is the [[Stepladder]]. Unlike most Labyrinths in ''The Legend of Zelda'', the Stepladder is needed to progress further within the same Labyrinth it is obtained in. Level-4 is also the first Labyrinth in the First Quest to have a mini-boss, which is [[Manhandla]]. The main [[Boss]] is [[Gleeok]], who guards one of the [[Triforce Shard]]s. This Dungeon has less [[Key]]s than needed to unlock all of the doors in the Dungeon, as there are four Keys and five locked doors. Link can unlock all of the doors by obtaining one of the extra Keys in {{Term|TLoZ|Level 2|link}} or {{Term|TLoZ|Level 3|link}} or by purchasing a Key from a [[Shop]].

In the [[Second Quest]], the walls and floors of the Labyrinth are green, being similar in color to the First Quest's {{Term|TLoZ|Level 3|link}} and {{Term|TLoZ|Level 5|link}}.

This is the first Labyrinth in the Second Quest in which colored [[Bubble]]s appear, with the red ones being able to prevent Link from using his sword indefinitely until he touches a Blue Bubble. This is also the first Labyrinth in the Second Quest to include an [[Old Man]] who requires Link to pay 50 [[Rupee]]s or give up one of his [[Heart Container]]s in order to progress further. If Link gives up a Heart Container, there is no way to get it back. There is also an Old Man in this Labyrinth who will increase Link's [[Bomb]] capacity for 100 [[Rupee]]s. This Labyrinth has more mini-bosses than previous Labyrinths in the Second Quest. It contains a room with a [[Digdogger]], a room with an [[Aquamentus]], a room with a single [[Dodongo]] and another room with three Dodongos. Another Digdogger also appears as the main Boss, who guards the Labyrinth's Triforce Shard. There are additional rooms to the right of the room with the Triforce Shard, with the Raft located at the end of these rooms.

"For the Level 4 from A Link to the Past, see Thieves' Town. For the Level 4 from Link's Awakening, see Angler's Tunnel. For the Level 4 from Oracle of Seasons, see Dancing Dragon Dungeon. For the Level 4 from Oracle of Ages, see Skull Dungeon."

Level 4,(TLoZ | LCT)[1][2] also stylized as Level-4,(TLoZ | BSTLoZ)[3][name references needed] and known as Snake,(TLoZ)[1] is a recurring Dungeon in The Legend of Zelda series.

Overview

The Legend of Zelda

Entrance to Level 4

In the First Quest, its entrance is located within the lake area of central Hyrule. The Raft, which is obtained in Level 3, is required to reach this Dungeon's entrance.

In the Second Quest, the entrance to Level 4 is a hidden stairway in the Lost Hills in northeast Hyrule. It is located under a stone which requires the use of the Power Bracelet to be moved.

Themes and Navigation

As the title of the Dungeon suggests, its Map resembles the shape of a snake. The interior of this Dungeon appears to be made of stone bricks, like most Labyrinths in The Legend of Zelda, with its primary color being dark yellow. This Labyrinth introduces dark rooms that Link cannot see in without Fire. To create Fire and illuminate the room, Link must either use a Candle or a Magical Rod in combination with the Book of Magic. It also introduces two enemies, the Vire and the Like Like. The main item of this Dungeon in First Quest is the Stepladder. Unlike most Dungeons in The Legend of Zelda, the Stepladder is needed to progress further within the same Dungeon it is obtained in. Level 4 is also the first Dungeon in the First Quest to have a Sub-Boss, which is Manhandla. The main Boss is Gleeok, who guards one of the Triforce Shards. This Dungeon has less Keys than needed to unlock all of the Doors in the Dungeon, as there are four Keys and five Locked Doors. Link can unlock all of the door by obtaining one of the extra Keys in Level 2 or Level 3 or by purchasing a Key from a Merchant.

In the Second Quest, the walls and floors of the Dungeon are green, being similar in color to the First Quest's Level 3 and Level 5. The main Items of this Dungeon are the Raft and the Book of Magic. Link does not need to acquire the Book of Magic in order to defeat Ganon. This is the first Dungeon in the Second Quest in which colored Bubbles appear, with the Red Bubbles being able to prevent Link from using his Sword indefinitely until he touches a Blue Bubble. This is also the first Dungeon in the Second Quest to include an Old Man who requires Link to pay 50 Rupees or give up one of his Heart Containers in order to progress further. If Link gives up a Heart Container, there is no way to get it back. There is also an Old Man in this Dungeon who will increase Link's Bomb capacity for 100 Rupees. This Dungeon has more Sub-Bosses than previous Dungeons in the Second Quest. It contains a room with a Digdogger, a room with an Aquamentus, a room with a single Dodongo and another room with three Dodongos. Another Digdogger also appears as the main Boss, who guards the Dungeon's Triforce Shard. There are additional rooms to the right of the room with the Triforce Shard, with the Raft located at the end of these rooms. If Link takes the Triforce Shard before exploring these rooms, he will be warped to the Overworld. However, he will need to navigate the Dungeon again to collect the Raft because it is required to access Level 5.

The most notable difference in Second Quest is the shape of this Dungeon, changing from a snake to the shape of the letter "D." The Maps of the first five Dungeons in the Second Quest each symbolize a letter, spelling out an anagram for "ZELDA."
