The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Game Guide

If you head on up to the platform in the center of the room, you’ll face off against a large spider.
These guys can defend against most of your attacks, but if you simply hold the Z button down and
wait for them to rear up and prepare to strike, you can unleash a flurry of blows and defeat them.
Light the four pyres here to raise a wooden walkway, then head across and open the chest here
to find the Dungeon Map. (Note that you can’t reach the chest suspended above the platform
just yet.) Head through the door to the north to reach Room 3, but you’ll be stopped when the
chimpanzee across the way slices the cords on the bridge with his mighty boomerang. Guess what
you’ll be stealing from him later on?
Retrieving The First Monkey
Your goal now is to track down and free enough monkeys to cross the bridge via the rope that
hangs alone the two posts connecting where it uses to lie. You have one now, but you’ll need a
total of four to make the crossing. Head back to Room 2, then let the monkey suspend itself from
the rope leading to the west. Leap over to it and press A at the right time to jump across to the
platform leading to Room 4.
As soon as you enter Room 4, take a right and block the explospider there with your shield. It’ll
bounce backwards, in front of the rock wall nearby; when it blows up, you can smash the jugs
inside to reveal Ooccoo, a creature that will let you warp out of dungeons. She won’t be very
useful in here, but she’ll be handy in future dungeons. The monkey will lead you to a locked door
in this room, but you don’t have a key! You have to leave the monkey behind (thank god), and
head north to Room 5, where you’ll find a Small Key. With that in hand, return to Room 4 and
unlock the room the monkey points you toward. (Note that there’s a chest with some Rupees in it
hidden in this room; drop into the water and search the southwestern corner of the room to find
it.)
In Room 6, drop down to the floor and roll into the central pillar a few times to free the monkey
there from its cage. There’s another chest here, hidden away under the wooden walkway. When
the monkey’s free, you’ll be able to swing along the ropes back to Room 4.
