The {{Term|TFH|Level|link}} is simple in design, relying heavily on basic {{Term|TFH|Totem|link}} and {{Term|TFH|Bow|link}} puzzles. Because of this, the {{Term|TFH|Kokiri Clothes|link}} serve well here. | ||
'''Stage 1''' | '''{{Term|TFH|Stage|link}} 1''' has the {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} separated on elevated ledges in different corners of the {{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob Cave|display=Cave}}. On each of the ledges is a {{Term|TFH|Balloon|link}} that can be popped with a {{Term|TFH|Sword|link}} strike, and a {{Term|TFH|Bow}} for that {{Term|TFH|Links}} to make use of. A short distance from each of these ledges, just out of their {{Plural|TFH|Sword}}' reach, floating {{Plural|TFH|Balloon}} hold up bridges and prevent the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} from getting down. Shooting an {{Term|TFH|Arrow|link}} to pop the {{Term|TFH|Balloon}} causes the bridge to fall into place, allowing the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} passage to reunite in the main part of the {{Term|TFH|Stage}}, where three {{Plural|TFH|Blob|link}} await. The {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}} is blocked by a locked {{Term|TFH|Gate|link}}, and a {{Term|TFH|Key|link}} floats inside a {{Term|TFH|Balloon}} near it. To reach this {{Term|TFH|Balloon}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must throw each other up two nearby ledges. After the {{Term|TFH|Gate}} is unlocked, the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway|display=Gateway}} can be reached beyond a narrow pathway. | ||

'''{{Term|TFH|Stage}} 2''' places the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} on a grassy ledge. Below is a large room with a closed {{Term|TFH|Gate}}, a bush-filled ledge to the west that can only be reached by forming a {{Term|TFH|Totem|link}}, and a {{Term|TFH|Big Switch|link}} that can only be activated once all three {{Plural|TFH|Links}} stand on it. Once they do, seven {{Plural|TFH|Blob}} and one {{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob|link}} appear in a circle around them. The latter electrifies the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} upon contact, so it can only be damaged with {{Plural|TFH|Arrow}}. After the {{Plural|TFH|Enemy|link}} are defeated, five more {{Plural|TFH|Blob}} and two more {{Plural|TFH|Buzz Blob}} appear in front of the {{Term|TFH|Gate}}. Defeating them all opens the {{Term|TFH|Gate}}, allowing passage to the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}}. Beyond the {{Term|TFH|Gate}} is a narrow pathway, which branches off to the left toward a {{Term|TFH|Treasure Chest|link}} containing a {{Term|TFH|Purple Rupee|link}}. | |||
{{Clear}} | |||
'''Stage 3''' | '''Stage 3''' starts the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} off on a small cliff over a deep chasm. Directly ahead of them is a central cliff, which can be reached using the four floating platforms that circle it. On this cliff are two {{Plural|TFH|Totem Deku|link}} and a {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|link}} on a post. Similarly to how the {{Plural|TFH|Totem Deku}} retract into the ground when the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} approach them, the {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|display=Switch}} covers itself with metal flaps if any {{Plural|TFH|Links}} get too close, forcing them to strike it from a distance. On the east cliff are a second {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch}} and a {{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob}}. On the north cliff, a third {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|display=Switch}} and an elevated ledge, and on the west cliff, a {{Term|TFH|Blob}} and an elevated {{Term|TFH|Treasure Chest}} containing a {{Term|TFH|Red Rupee|link}}. Each {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch}} can only be reached by the {{Term|TFH|Links}} atop a full {{Term|TFH|Totem}}. Once all three are struck, the {{Term|TFH|Gate}} blocking the northeast cliff opens, allowing passage to the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}}, which is beyond a short bridge. A {{Term|TFH|Squiddy|link}} is found beside the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway|display=Gateway}}, along with several {{Plural|TFH|Jar|link}}. | ||

'''Stage 4''' is | [[File:TFH Electric Blob King Battle.png|250px|right|thumb|Battling Electric Blob King in Stage 4]] | ||
'''Stage 4''' is the final stage. The {{Plural|TFH|Links}} appear in a small room, which opens ahead of them into a large pit below. Before falling in, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} can circle around the border to find {{Plural|TFH|Rock|link}} and bushes. A single {{Term|TFH|Heart}} rests behind some {{Plural|TFH|Rock}} to the east. Once all three {{Plural|TFH|Links}} fall in the hole, the {{Term|TFH|Electric Blob King|link}} appears, and the battle ensues. {{Plural|TFH|Heart}} and {{Plural|TFH|Rupee|link}} atop various ledges can be found around the arena. Once the {{Term|TFH|Boss}} is defeated, the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}} appears, and the {{Term|TFH|Level}} is completed upon entering it. A hidden tunnel can also be found in the north-east of the pit, reachable only by forming a {{Term|TFH|Totem}} and throwing the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} up. One {{Term|TFH|Links}} can enter this tunnel to find several {{Plural|TFH|Rupee}}, including a {{Term|TFH|Red Rupee}}, in an alcove above the {{Term|TFH|Triforce Gateway}}. | |||

===Drablands Challenge=== | ==={{Plural|TFH|Drablands Challenge}}=== | ||
Once the {{Term|TFH|Boss|link}} of the {{Term|TFH|Woodlands|link}} has been defeated, {{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob Cave}} can be replayed with the following {{Plural|TFH|Drablands Challenge|link}}: "[[Drablands Challenge#Pop all balloons!|Pop all balloons!]]", "[[Drablands Challenge#Clear within the time limit!|Clear within the time limit!]]", and "[[Drablands Challenge#Clear using only Bombs!|Clear using only Bombs!]]". | |||
In Pop all balloons, a | In "Pop all balloons!", the four {{Plural|TFH|Stage|link}} contain 12, 17, four, and three {{Plural|TFH|Balloon|link}} respectively, for a total of 36 {{Plural|TFH|Balloon}}. Many of them bear a number indicating the size of a {{Term|TFH|Totem|link}} required for the {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} to reach them. In {{Term|TFH|Stage}} 1, the {{Plural|TFH|Blob}} are absent during this {{Term|TFH|Drablands Challenge|display=Challenge}}. | ||
In | In "Clear within the time limit!", the {{Plural|TFH|Links|link}} are given a timer of one minute and 30 seconds in both single-player and [[Multiplayer]] modes. This timer can be increased by collecting {{Plural|TFH|Hourglass|link}} or wearing {{Term|TFH|Linebeck's Uniform|link}}. Notably, there are no {{Plural|TFH|Hourglass}} to collect in the first two {{Plural|TFH|Stage}} of the {{Term|TFH|Level}}. | ||
===Enemies=== | In "Clear using only Bombs!", the {{Term|TFH|Level}}'s {{Plural|TFH|Bow}} are replaced with {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}}. Anything to be hit indirectly or from a distance must now be struck using a {{Term|TFH|Bomb}} blast, requiring the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} to use precise timing and aiming in order to solve puzzles.<ref>{{Cite Web|quote= I think you probably looked at this course on the first day of Treehouse Live, but you played it in its normal mode, where you were equipped with bows and arrows.

==Trivia== | |||
*{{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob Cave}} was one of the {{Plural|TFH|Level}} included in the E3 demo and in the distributed demo version. In the former, it was formerly known as '''The Forest'''. | |||
*As described in Vol. 1 of the {{Term|TFH|Drablands Diary|link}}, a bright green {{Term|TFH|Butterfly|link}} is hidden in each {{Term|TFH|Level|link}} of the {{Term|TFH|Woodlands|link}}. One can be found in {{Term|TFH|Stage}} 3 of {{Term|TFH|Buzz Blob Cave}}, on a spiderweb directly above the easternmost {{Term|TFH|Shock Switch|link}}. | |||
