In {{ALttP|-}}, the Dark World is a fully explorable [[Overworld]]. Once the [[Sacred Realm]], or Golden Land, this world was twisted when [[Ganon]] claimed the Golden Power, or the [[Triforce]]. Its layout is very similar to the Light World (Hyrule), but there are notable differences. It contains many of its own unique locations, namely a large structure at the Dark World’s center called the [[Pyramid of Power]]. Everything in the Dark World, naturally, appears darker. Many structures and buildings are in a state of disrepair, specifically in the [[Village of Outcasts]]. All the grass is brown and withered, and the water is an unnatural jade color. | In {{ALttP|-}}, the Dark World is a fully explorable [[Overworld]].
