Quarreling Brothers
Two brothers who live in the south part of the Kakariko Village. They are always arguing. The elder one is angry about his younger brother and sealed the door to his room. If Link breaks down the door, he is able to access the 15-Second Game, and the elder brother admits he should probably make up with his younger sibling.

Digging Game Gatekeeper

Chris Houlihan
The owner of a secret room, with 45 Blue Rupees. His room is reached by utilising a glitch in the game that causes it to load an incorrect room when falling through a hole. He does not appear directly and only speaks to Link via a Telepathy Tile.

Hermit
A storytelling hermit shaped like a small tree that lives in a building near the Palace of Darkness.

Shooting Gallery Proprietor
The ghostly owner of a Shooting Gallery found south of the Village of Outcasts. Despite his appearance, he is friendly and amiable. He will bang his drum when Link scores a hit in his game, and speaks using Southern American phrases such as "howdy".
