Shooting Gallery

The Shooting Gallery is a recurring minigame in the Zelda series first appearing in.

A Link to the Past
In, the game is found inside small a shop south of the Village of Outcasts, and involves shooting small octopus style targets as they move from left to right.

While at the same time, targets shaped like hands move in the opposite direction in an attempt to stop the arrows hitting the main target. Link has 5 Arrows to shoot the more targets can; the more target he can hit in a row, the more Rupees he wins.

Ocarina of Time
In, the shooting gallery is situated in the Hyrule Market, but moves to Kakariko Village after Ganon's takeover. To win, Link must successfully shoot all ten Rupee-shaped targets in succession, some of which move, using fifteen shots. If Link hits at least eight targets, he will be given a free retry.

As a child, by using the Slingshot, the targets come up in a fixed order. The first time Link shoots every single one, he will receive a large Deku Seed bag, and subsequent wins will grant 50 Rupees.

As an adult, by using the Bow, the prize is a larger Quiver, allowing Link to hold up to 40 Arrows, but the targets appear in a random order. Adult Link can play even before he gets the Fairy Bow from the Forest Temple, although he will only win 50 Rupees for completing it.

Majora's Mask
There are three archery games in. One is found in East Clock Town under the title of Clock Town Shooting Gallery. In this game, red and blue Octoroks jump out of the water. The red ones must be shot for one point each; the blue ones, however, must be avoided, as a hit will cause the amount of time remaining to lower. By beating the high score of 39, Link will receive a larger Quiver. The true goal of the game is to attain a perfect score of 50 red Octoroks; the prize for which is a Piece of Heart.

The second game is found in the path to the Southern Swamp, called the Swamp Shooting Gallery. Slightly more difficult than the Clock Town Shooting Gallery, the Swamp Shooting Gallery involves shooting Deku Scrubs, Guays, and Wolfos, all of which are constantly moving in various formations. When a perfect score is achieved, a larger Quiver is earned; doing said achievement once more results into a Piece of Heart, though Link must actually attain over 2200 points for the Heart Piece, otherwise only a Red Rupee is earned.

The third Shooting Gallery is sponsored by Koume from the Swamp Tourist Center, after Link clears Woodfall Temple. He has to shoot Koume's hanging target at least 20 times to win a Heart Piece, while avoiding shooting Koume herself. The minigame is set during the boat ride across the Southern Swamp. As part of their daily attractions, Honey and Darling invite Link for a target shooting game on the Final Day in East Clock Town. It can be played as Link or Deku Link, using either the Bow or Magic Bubbles, respectively. This Shooting Gallery is slightly different in that it is one part of a three part game.

Oracle of Ages
The Shooting Gallery appears in Lynna Village in. The game involves hitting small orange balls that are fired at Link into different targets. The targets are low point blocks or high point angels. It is also the easiest and fastest way to earn Gasha Seeds or Magical Rings.

The Goron Gallery is located in the Rolling Ridge, though it exists only in the past. The game consists of hitting with Link's Sword a ball so it hits certain blocks which give points. The Fairy Blocks are worth 100 points, Blue Blocks are worth 30 points, Red Blocks are worth -10 points, or if Link misses or hits an Imp Block, it is -50 points. If Link can manage to get 100 points after 10 rounds, he will will receive the Lava Juice. The Boomerang can also be obtained afterwards.

Trivia

 * When Link shoots a target in Ocarina of Time, an equivalent Rupee marker appears on the floor. However, while the green and blue targets cause identically-colored Ruppes to appear, shooting a red target will generate a purple Rupee.
 * In Ocarina of Time, the wanted poster on the wall bears resemblance to Vaati's Wrath and Nightmare's final form.
 * The owner of the Lynna Village shop looks very much like from the.
