Maybe I'm missing something, but is there any reason to call this a shadow dungeon beyond its name? The puzzles, visuals, and enemies do not suggest an elemental theme.--Osteoderm Jacket 07:04, 13 January 2012 (EST)
I don't remember much of A Link to the Past but you're probably right. However, the Dark Palace in A Link Between Worlds seems like a Shadow Dungeon. --Planetbox (talk) 01:02, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
- Definitely. It has puzzles that rely on light and shadow.KrytenKoro (talk) 05:10, 28 November 2013 (UTC)
- There's also the fact that the Shadow Temple and Dark Palace literally have the same name in Japanese. Also a large portion of the lowest floor is pitch black even in the original dungeon. The Palace of Darkness is the ORIGINAL Shadow Temple. User:Fizzle/sig 19:48, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
- I agree with Gwydion that we should try to be consistent in our fan translations; if we translate Yami no Shinden as "Dark Temple" (or, considering it is meant to refer to the elemental force rather than the adjective, perhaps "Darkness Temple") on the OoT page, we should do it here as well.KrytenKoro (talk) 21:49, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
