Entrance to the Cave

Themes and Navigation
As its name might suggest, the Unicorn's Cave is a rather fantastical dungeon with vivid purple-tiled floors and pink walls. The dungeon consists of one floor which, from above, resembles a 's head facing eastwards (hence the name of the dungeon). There are also three side-scrolling rooms beneath the actual dungeon. The Boss Key is located within one of these rooms. The dungeon also has three sets of carts, which all meet in one room of the dungeon and have no other purpose but to transport Link to the adjacent rooms.

The mini-boss of the dungeon is Syger, a with a red orb at the tip of his tail (his only weakness). The main item of the dungeon are the Magnetic Gloves, which can be used to push and pull heavy metal orbs within the dungeon in order to solve puzzles and defeat enemies. Also, fixed NaN "S" Stones within the dungeon can be used to cross gaps by repelling or drawing Link toward the object.

The boss of the Unicorn's Cave is Digdogger, guardian of the Nurturing Warmth that Link seeks. Defeating Digdogger allows Link to claim the Essence of Nature, as well as a Heart Container.

Trivia
