In {{MM3D}}, the colored masks in the dining room are redesigned to feature a different card suit symbol on each one. The hints the Stalchildren give also refer to the mask's symbol instead of the color, and the Stalchildren no longer attack while Link is not wearing the [[Captain's Hat]]. Link can also now get the Giant Wallet during any of the three days.

The man who is looking for shelter

The Oceanside Spider House bears a greater resemblance to an actual house than the Swamp Spider House, albeit a very abandoned one, full of storage boxes and cobwebs. When Link first enters the house, he finds himself in an empty room. However, by blowing up the cracked wall before him, a passage is revealed that leads to a hidden basement with another entrance to the rest of the house. The first room after the basement entrance is a corridor with a stairway down and three rooms. A great library is located on the first basement floor, while the second basement floor holds a storage room and a dining room. The latter is inhabited by four Stalchildren sitting by a large table, while another two can also be found in the library. By speaking to them using the Captain's Hat, it is revealed that they are under orders to investigate the secrets of the place.[1] In addition, each of the six Stalchildren will reveal a piece of information that is required to solve a puzzle in the dining room.[2] When Link solves this puzzle, a gateway will open within the dining room's fireplace, revealing a secret chamber where a Treasure Chest with a Piece of Heart inside can be found.

The most intriguing mystery surrounding the Oceanside Spider House is the presence of several Skull Kid Portraits within the house. It is never elaborated on as to why the pictures are in there, nor even referenced by anyone within the house, even Tatl. The only purpose they serve is to be shot down to potentially reveal a hidden Gold Skulltula.

Once the 30 Gold Skulltulas are slain and their Spirits collected, a man will appear at the entrance, who will ask if he can have the house. If Link collects all the tokens during the First Day, he will be rewarded with the Giant Wallet, with a Silver Rupee being awarded for completing it again on the First Day in subsequent cycles. On the Second Day, he will receive a Purple Rupee, and on the Final Day, a Red Rupee. The man wants to use the Oceanside Spider House as a shelter from the falling Moon.[3] If Link re-enters the house, the man will now be sitting crouched up on the basement floor, praying for the Goddess of Time to save him.[4]

In Majora's Mask 3D, the colored masks in the dining room are redesigned to feature a different card suit symbol on each one. The hints the Stalchildren give also refer to the mask's symbol instead of the color. Link can also now get the Giant Wallet during any of the three days, and defeating all 30 Gold Skulltulas a second time will award him a Fishing Hole Pass.
