Level 2


 * Not to be confused with the Moon Dungeons. For this dungeon in, see Level 2 (BS The Legend of Zelda).

The Moon labyrinth, or simply Level 2, is the second dungeon in. As with most dungeons in the original game, it is named after its shape, a crescent moon.

Entrance
In the First Quest, the dungeon's entrance is atop a green hill in the eastern part of Hyrule, north of the forest area.

In the Second Quest, the dungeon's entrance is a stairway hidden under an Armos statue in the western part of Hyrule. This is the same spot that a shop selling the Blue Ring is located in the First Quest.

First Quest
The interior of this dungeon appears to be made of stone bricks, like most dungeons in The Legend of Zelda, with its primary color being a deep and dark shade of blue. One room is filled with sand and is home to Moldorms.

The dungeon item of this dungeon is the Magical Boomerang, an upgrade of the previous normal boomerang, and is being guarded by a room full of blue Goriya. The boss of this dungeon is a single Dodongo, who guards one of the Triforce pieces. This dungeon is also notable that it also houses the Old Man who says the infamous quote, "DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE".

Second Quest
Like most dungeons in the Second Quest of The Legend of Zelda, the dungeon's layout greatly differs in size and difficulty. Additionally, the walls and floors of the dungeon were also changed to the color green, thus being more similar to the Manji dungeon in the First Quest.

In the Second Quest, the main item of this dungeon is the Recorder, located in a basement room guarded by Keese. Manhandla appears as a mini-boss, and Gleeok is the main boss guarding one of the Triforce pieces.

The most notable difference in the shape of this dungeon, changing from a cresent moon shape to the shape of the letter A. When the shapes of the Lizard (Letter Z), Eagle (Letter E), Manji (Letter L), Snake (Letter D), and Moon (Letter A) are listed in that order, they spell ZELDA.
