Thanks for stopping by!
I'm glad you gave Face Shrine's Dungeon theme its dues. It is one of the best tracks in the entire series in my opinion. Great list!
Thanks. it's a very good dungeon theme that I feel gets slept on.
@@HungryHeracross my favorite dungeon is Angler's Tunnel i love the dungeon design and its mini boss and boss
Sorry, but I disagree about Eagles Tower. The mini boss was underwhelming, the boss was good though. But missing a jump and IT SENDS YOU BACK TO SQUARE ONE! That, combined with the fact that every time I go through the dungeon I just end up going in circles looking for the third pillar. Plus, it doesn’t really have much of a theme. Turtle Rock is a volcanic cave, Angler’s Tunnel was a water themed dungeon. But for Eagles Tower, we get the most random thing ever- blue and green floor tiling. I did like the puzzles. I think it was pretty unique, but arguably the most detrimental to my sanity. Oh and if your ball falls, you get to go all the way back to get it. Super fun. It also has Gibdos, a useless enemy that exists in this dungeon, but it’s not dangerous, it’s too slow, and you have to use Magic Powder to get rid of the annoying enemies. As well as those annoying Anti-Kirby enemies.
That's fair. I like the randomness of it and the challenge it provides, but can agree it's not everyone's cup of tea.
The best part about the face shrine is the map. Its a picture if link & the water way is him crying out his right eye. It signifies that link is sad after learning that the island isnt real & it'll all go away if he wakes the wind fish.
My fave dungeon is face shrine & eagle's tower though.
I hadn't noticed it before, thanks for sharing! That's really nice detail.
Face shrine took me years to beat as a kid. I didn't have the dx version and the one wall you bomb eluded me for the longest time. Such a nostalgic dungeon
Now that's cool
My favorite dungeon is the face shrine. Great boss, my favorite mini boss, and some top-notch music.
It's a really good dungeon!
People underrate it's difficultly. You have to do a pro A Link to the past move on the first crystal switch to get past the first part of the dungeon or you'll go in circles. Then there actually is a never ending set of rooms. Also the boss key doesn't open up like other boss keys. I put it up there with Turtle Rock as toughest dungeon.
just finished the eagle tower. honestly the least fun i’ve had playing the game so far. it was challenging but it got to the point where i just got annoyed having to backtrack and find my iron ball just to find my path is blocked by color tiles. but i enjoyed the boss
I feel like people either love this dungeon or hate it, not much in between. Thanks for watching!
Did you record this inside of a burnt out fuselage
Honestly, color dungeon was my favorite dungeon. I really like all of the puzzles and the layout, and it has a really good boss. Also, the item is super overpowered. And eagles tower is actually my least favorite. Having to traverse all over the place through all of the floors was so annoying because i had to walk super far to do a simple task and the pillars were also annoying destroy. The boss was pretty good, and the item was also a little underwhelming.
You make a strong case for the color dungeon to be number 1! It's a great dungeon. Having Eagle's Tower as your least favourite is definitely a hot take, but I can see how having a level that's so different from everything else can be unappealing.
Large Kirby I agree with you, I was thinking the exact same

Thanks for sharing your ranking, I like it.
Eagle tower was a blast to go through i like a dungeon that test me
I know some ppl hate it but i liked it alot and loved redoing it
The only thing i didn't really liked was the mini boss
I'm on the same page with all of these points!!
For The dodongos(snake things) in key cavern it’s easier to place the bomb in front of them rather than throwing it over and over missing
Definitely!
Eagle's Tower for the win!!
For sure!
4:30 *that* puzzle from bottle grotto. I put this game down for two years as a kid because I couldn't get through this room. The original hint was way more vague than the switch version.
First time playing the game I got so frustrated not knowing how to solve it too. Definitely a killer.

Key cavern I hate for having to find all these keys but for eagle's tower I love the music and the pillar puzzle a lot of people hate this dungeon but I love it.
I've made lists in all your other links awakening bosses check them out.

They changed the chess puzzle for the remake, I see - in the Game Boy versions, you just had to get the knights to be standing up.
Still a confusing puzzle
Eagle’s tower is my personal favorite.
It's such a great dungeon.
I love it Eagles tower number 1 my favorite dungeon love these videos!
Your underatted
Thanks!
I think Turtle Rock takes it by far. The lava design is new to the game and cool. The puzzles are great with navigating the robot to burning ice. It also has great mini bosses. I know Hot Head isn’t that good, but it is a bit underrated.
It ticks a lot of boxes and does many things better than any other dungeon in the game.
My list:
1. Color Dungeon
2. Catfish's Maw
3. Face Shrine
4. Turtle Rock
5. Angler's Tunnel
6. Key Cavern
7. Bottle Grotto
8. Tail Cave
9. Eagle's Tower
Thanks for sharing your list!
Face Shrine is the best dungeon, having some of the most interesting themes and a great soundtrack. I thought the eeriness of the statues and the boss being a giant face made it one of the coolest dungeons. Turtle Rock was second best.
I think if Face Shrine had a better final boss, it would have elevated the dungeon so much. It has so many good qualities.
Facade was a great boss idea, I just felt like it needed a few new attacks in order to be better.
My list (Nintendo Switch):
9: Bottle Grotto (setup could be better; the Hinox (miniboss) is cool, but I dislike Genie)
8: Key Cavern (plain setup, i REALLY don't like dodongo snakes, and Slime Eye is a little better than Genie so I ranked it higher)
7: Tail Cave (nice and easy "intro" to links awakening, and the miniboss it fun, molder is decent)
6: Color Dungeon (unclear to find it, which can be annoying, I don't really like the minibuses, but the hardhit beetle is one of my favorites)
5. Face Shrine (it has decent soundtrack, I dislike facade, but smasher is my favorite miniboss, so I put it here)
4: Angler's Tunnel (it has good soundtrack that matches with the water theme, and flippers are quite cool, but I dislike the miniboss, and Angler fish could be better)
3: Turtle Rock (very good design and I like the fact it is shaped like a turtle, and the only reason I ranked it lower is because of hot head
2: Catfish's Maw (I would rank it number 1 in therms of items,, because the hook shot is overpowered and if the boomerang was in a level, than I wouldn't put it in second (maybe 3 or 4); Master Stalfos is cool, with the miniboss and Slime Eel)
1. Eagle's Tower (very unique map, being the tallest in terms of size, and the Grim Creeper miniboss and boss fights are very, very nice)
Love this list! Can definitely agree with all these points.
I despise eagle tower with a passion , it is beyond tedious in almost all puzzles
Personally I think turtle rock is the best, despite the hours it took to solve. I'd put the eagles tower in second
It's a good dungeon no doubt, just lacking a good boss to close it.
@HungryHeracross ye the boss lacks a bit. I think that's the one advantage eagles tower has
the wind fish's egg is the final dungeon you know
Technically not a Dungeon just go through the right path and bam final boss
A grey area given it's 1 puzzle and a boss fight, so opted to not include it.
Turtle Rock was weird & confusing,mostly because the map is so big
It is a massive map, especially compared to the rest of the game. There's also so many bombable walls that create shortcuts that it makes it really easy to get lost.
You should be a more popular youtuber
Thank you! Hopefully one day!
Sorry dude the sound it pretty bad
You're right, this is sounding horrible! Definitely don't recall it being this bad when I uploaded a few years ago, not sure what has happened to the video. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
I don't like that key cavern is so close to top 5 it's has to be the worst dungeon in the game.
Will have to agree to disagree on that one :)
I just hate having to find all these keys and this dungeon is really confusing.
Key cavern is confusing
