Among the long list of games within the series, many gamers rank The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time very high when compared to other stellar games. After Ocarina of Time made it onto the Switch, many new generations of players will be able to experience this classic title from a fresh new console.
For players who like to fully complete the game and find all of the secrets in Ocarina of Time, they will need one helpful tool called the "Lens of Truth." This tool is useful for looking at invisible platforms, mysterious walls, and uncovering secret passageways in the game.
However, the way to get the item can be a mystery of its own. So for The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time fans looking to grab the Lens of Truth quickly, here is how to get it and how it works.
Kakariko Village
After completing the Forest Temple, go to Kakariko Village and talk to the man inside the windmill with the music box. He will teach players the "Song of Storms," which can be used to conjure rainstorms and unlock a hidden dungeon. Play the song inside to move the windmill and open a secret passage outside in the well.
Bottom of the Well
After players crawl through the entrance, jump down and defeat the Skulltula, then move past the invisible wall behind it. Two different passageways will now present themselves. Take the path on the right, turn left, and go all the way down until players hit a wall. After that, go left until fans find the water fountain coming out of the wall.
Once here, play Zelda's Lullaby to the statue, and the water levels will lower. Then, backtrack to the starting point with the two open paths, and a new secret location in Ocarina of Time will open up.
Dead Hand
Jump down the path and crawl through the small opening on the ground. After defeating another Skulltula and going through the door, fans should find themselves in a large room with five hands coming out of the ground. After interacting with one of them, the mini-boss fight will begin.
Dead Hand is a frightening pale monster that can only be slashed in the face. If gamers get too close to the hands, it will grab them and temporarily stun them. However, this can be used to their advantage. Players can intentionally let themselves be caught by the hands and wait for Dead Hand to get close. Once it lowers its head, quickly slash it as much as possible.
Lens of Truth
Repeat the process until the boss is defeated. A chest will now appear that has the Lens of Truth inside it. Once unlocked, gamers can set it to their desired button, depending on the console, and use it to see the invisible objects in the environment.
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is available on Nintendo 64, Switch, and 3DS.
