I always loved that Twilight Princess' dungeons felt as though they made the most sense. Almost all of them had a reason to exist beyond a challenge for Link - a functioning mine, a snowy mansion atop a mountain peak, executioners grounds, the Twilit Palace... It seems fitting that the Zelda game most focused on telling a grand epic style story had dungeons that each told a story.

Couldn't agree more. Even just how the music slightly changes as you progress further up in the tower makes it one of the best dungeons in my opinion if we're talking about atmosphere. Every floor you get higher, the theme changes. There are instruments added and from what was an almost quiet and just eerie theme in the beginning, you ascend to a musical theme that rises in importance and intimidation as you realize you're about to stand before Ganondorf himself.

For me, Stone Tower Temple's gotta be the best dungeon in the series. Just so many memorable moments. Climbing the tower, fighting the mini bosses, flipping the temple for the first time, going through the same rooms you just traversed but flipped upside-down creating a new experience entirely. I didn't actually like Twinmold too much, but aside from that it's a 10/10 dungeon all-around.

Stone Tower Temple probably has my favorite lore of any dungeon in the series

3:32 my oldest brother, who had already beaten OoT before, was showing me the ropes when I was about 8. We played through the Inside the Deku Tree and after the initial cutscene showing the interior of Dodongo’s Cavern played, he stood up, said “You’ll never make it past this dungeon”, and left the room. I remember feeling a little scared and too young to be playing the game. I think that was a big part of what made me so tenacious at trying to unearth the answers to puzzles, explore every area, and complete the whole game. I felt so accomplished every time I completed a new portion of the game, and was legitimately sad after the end-credits rolled.

I feel like this list features a lot of counterbalancing to make things feel more "fair". This happens a lot with twilight princess as your descriptions tend to allude to them being super good and unique, and then you give them a C

Honestly, if it was up to me, I'd put pretty much every Twilight Princess dungeon in either A or S. It's BY FAR the game in the whole series; not just 3D, that has the best dungeons, and it also helps that they are quite lengthy. They are all masterfully designed, and if there's something in one of the dungeons that goes wrong, there's ALWAYS something else that makes up for it, like the atmosphere of the Twilight Palace making up for its short length compared to others. Every dungeon in this game is a masterpiece, even City in the Sky, which might actually be my favourite dungeon in the whole game. So yeah, I think that Twilight Princess's dungeons are massively underrated and deserve a lot more love.

I don’t think it’s Skyloft. Skyloft didn’t need machinery to keep it in the sky. Considering the overall themes of TP especially with how the sheikah were driven into a ghetto then walled off with a landslide and not allowed to leave until the so-called “messenger of the heavens” showed up (and arrived far too late; Impaz is elderly and the only survivor and had been alone long before Twilight Fell)…plus the Stylized Sheikah Eyes on all the doors? How that place feels like a crumbling factory and has BARS on various openings? How the Oocaa have the RED eyes characteristic of the sheikah (and the Series has already had god-caused evolutions established in the franchise with Windwaker) That’s a sweatshop. The Sheikah were locked in and enslaved, with the Messenger Rod carried by the official who carried off the next batch of Sheikah. They were then abandoned with the rod tossed into the Temple of Time. The Skybook and its letters were scattered. Impaz’s family died. The Sheikah slaves left in a now-crumbling factory evolved into the Oocaa-something able to survive falling off and needing to consume less calories. And if you really listen to the music? Aside from how it is incredibly repetitive and eery, its pattern and rhythm is similar to New Kakariko’s in Eldin (where the ruined cannon is found), and the Oocaa chanting sounds like a *lament.* (Aaaand as Hylians often do but especially in TP’s Lore, they rewrite history about what happened, completely erasing their sins. But like everything else subtext-wise in TP, it’s glaringly obvious. Mess with a TV’s contrast and it’s pretty horrifying what details the devs put into the level designs for the original Wii and probably GC releases.)

Naaah, BOTW is more better in finding this 120 little dungeons and more focus on wild and open world and many more other things. 5 bigger dungeons in BOTW were enough, plus The whole world is Dungeon, like for example finding all photos, fairies, koroks etc.

My favorite has to be either the arbiter’s ground and the ancient cistern I’m a big fan of indiana Jones and I got that vibe while going through the dungeon not to mention the spinner is one of the most fun Zelda items to use and stalord is very fun and the ancient cistern because one it has huge HUGE lore significance and second it’s fun I also really like the whip item and the Buddhist theme is really neat and koloktos is my favorite non final boss fight in Zelda to me in order for a dungeon to be good it has to have good gameplay good atmosphere and a good boss that’s just my opinion though

The Zant Hands are such genius. Like the Silent Realm Guardians, they are brilliant at making the player freak right out

I feel like the fact that so much of Hyrule Castle (BotW) is skippable, but people still choose to delve deeply into it speaks volumes about how compelling it is as a dungeon. Sometimes in Zelda dungeons I get tired of puzzles etc, and am simply just playing through for progression, but Hyrule Castle had me hyped for the ENTIRE game, and it felt very rewarding to go through not just because of the music, and design, but also that there is a lot of valuable items to be found within it, as well as cool secrets - something that a lot of other Zelda dungeons don't have. I think the fact that Hyrule Castle has secrets that are completely missable make finding them so unbelievably cool, and maybe Zelda dungeons in the future should take bigger chances with secrets.

Personally, I expected TP Hyrule Castle to be an A tier at a minimum, especially considering all the praise it rightly got, and honestly even the Palace of Twilight felt like it needed higher mention. And while I do understand the 2 criticisms for the Goron Mines and the City in the Sky where one was too short and one felt too long, they both also feel like very strong high B to A tier contenders. I genuinely don't believe ANY TP Dungeon should have been ranked lower than B Tier, just based on design choices, themes, items, lore, atmosphere, enemies, and presentation. Like, say what you will about any mainline Zelda game, but there's a reason the IP is held in such high regard, there is a consistent quality in the execution of what is definitely a passionate series. It is a beloved franchise because of the experiences fostered with the players. Like many of the target franchise audience, I grew up with OoT and have a high standard for my 3D Zelda games, but on so many design and presentation decisions alone, I think TP is overall one of the most phenomenal entries in the series. And specifically looking at dungeons, I honestly believe TP sets the Gold Standard for dungeons. Every Zelda game has its shortcomings and exploitable flaws, and nostalgia is actually important to consider when looking back at each Zelda game (even objectively), because the purpose of these games is to immerse the player in the experience, story, and adventure. Some of the reasons the S Tiers were so high specifically had to do with how immersive they were, the mysteries, the ways the dungeons affect the player and are made MEMORABLE because of their execution, that's what Zelda is all about. It's why people get mad about OoT pandering but at the same time have to respect OoT for setting expectations, because the sheer MEMORY of the experiences formed from the very beginning left an impact that spanned literal generations.

I would have put it like this S - Arbiter’s Grounds, Snowpeak Ruins, Hyrule Castle as they all have amazing designs that fit their theme as well as some of the best bosses in the series (mini boss and main boss alike) A - Temple of Time, Palace of Twilight, Forest Temple. These three suffer from their lengths a bit, I really with the palace of twilight went on for a bit longer, and the others can get a tad boring for me but the bosses are again amazing B - City in the Sky, Goron Mines. They dont do anything wrong, but could have been better. The goron mines dont make enough use out of the bow like the forest temple from Oot did as an example, and Firus is underwhelming. The city in the sky drags on way too long. It always takes me multiple sessions to finish when I go back to it. C - Lakebed temple. The only one I would call average. It just feels like another okay-ish water dungeon, but serves its purpose in introducing the claw shot. As cool as morpheel looks, I wouldn’t be able to tell you how to get hit by it in the second phase. It feels like the developers forgot to add hit boxes.

I have to say, one of my favorite things about the Temple of Time in Twilight Princess is that it confirmed a theory I had had since I played OoT: that the resting place of the Master Sword in ALttP is what remains of the Temple of Time in OoT. Twilight Princess serves as a bridge to those two versions of the swords pedestal. Grant it, TP exists on a different timeline as ALttP but still...

I played through it yesterday for a second time. And the goron part was the most annoying thing in the world. I actually really dislike rolling around as goron Link because the controls are so bad. Shifting the stick just a little bit to the left or right lets Link roll far too wide. Then again, when I played this game as a kid (it was the 3ds version) I seemingly didn't have much difficulties with this area (I don't remember it being annoying). I replayed the game on the Switch Emulator. Is it just in the N64-version where Goron Link is so annoying to control or is it the Switch emulator?

Pretty solid list. Personally happy TP got two on your S tier. I really wished the Divine Beasts in BotW were guarding actual temples/dungeons in their respective regions instead of being just what they were. Imagine finding a hidden oasis in the desert that had signs of the Desert Colossus from OoT or getting access to a forgotten crystal mine in the mountain crater that was linked to the Earth Temple? Doesn't even have to be completed but could've helped the citizens recover parts of their lost regions. Really hope BotW 2 delivers.

Stone Tower has to be my all time favorite, with OOT's forest temple being a close second. Although, I will caveat, I hated Stone Tower the first time I played it, because it confused the heck out of me. I later grew to love it, and think it's a great final dungeon to my second favorite Zelda game after BOTW. I love the eerie music and setting of both dungeons. The sense of, you're alone in a place with a lot of history and mystery behind it. Also, Stone Tower's boss fight against Twinmold is my favorite boss fight. Seeing Link urning into a giant and going full WWE on a gigantic floating interdimensional worm is just a load of fun

I love it on the 3DS remake. But i really disliked it when i played the original on the 64. The annoyance of the constant menu switching the boots on the 64 really tanked my enjoyment of that dungeon. I can not stress how annoying that was, escpecially since there was like 1.5sec delay for the menu on the 64 combined with how you have to learn the dungeon layout by exploring (adding to how many times you have to switch).

Twilight princess really had such amazing dungeons. Consistently great, all pretty fun on repeat plays. I look forward to each dungeon in that game every time I replay

This was really impressive. Ranking all dungeons is a pretty big task, and you accomplished it with style. Thank you for making this!

The ones I remember the most are the Spirit Temple, Stone Tower Temple, Ganondorf's tower at the end of Twilight Princess, and the Ancient Cistern. I also loved Vah-Naboris in Breath of the Wild, because I went for that divine beast first and the Thunderblight Ganon kicked my ass so hard, it was sooooo satisfying to finally best him - I was literally shaking at the end.

The greatest flex I've ever seen from a villain in a video game would have to be from Ganondorf in OOT. Like specifically the fact that he was actively the cause of the build-up to him. Climbing the tower to get to him and hearing his theme just keep getting louder and when you finally get to him you walk into the room and he's literally playing his theme on a pipe organ and the music just stops when he turns around to acknowledge that you finally made it to him. THAT right there is what I'd call a flex. I rank the final dungeon in OOT very highly just for that. Just the moment you realize it isn't the background music that's playing and he's literally just sitting there on an organ when you finally find him. I'm going to be honest that is equally one of the funniest yet badass things I've ever seen in a video game. XD

With me, it's a tie between The Forest Temple and Shadow Temple in Ocarina of Time. Both have amazing background music, great mystery and have wonderful atmosphere to them.

I really like how balanced your tier list is. There’s no judgment that feels out of place or unjustified. Like you said at the start of the video, all Zelda dungeons are great, even those in D-tier, so it’s nice to see the good parts of the inferior dungeons still be highlighted.

Forest Tempel will always be my favorite. (Alongside that mansion from TP). Even as a child I had this weird fascination for eerie, foggy, abandoned places like this. For as long as I can remember, I liked the melancholy of foggy forest areas like the Forest Tempel, the path down to Silent Hill in SH2, or the forest outside Royal Chapel in Symphony of the Night. Even while writing this comment, just by thinking about OoT's Forest Temple, I can smell the scent of the forest. That smell of trees, earth and sometimes mushrooms. It's melancholic but also romantic somehow. The music is perfect and the whole temple looks like an old Burg, forgotten in time. Forest Temple also has great puzzles and Phantom Ganon is one of the coolest bosses in the series. Let me tell you, once I'm dead, I'll make sure to find a place like this to haunt.

I really feel like Zeltnik completely overlooked the nuance of most of Majora's Mask's dungeons. He says that they're fundamentally used to showcase the title's signature masks, but doesn't seem to recognize the full weight that statement has, especially with regards to the Goron and Zora masks. The masks go significantly beyond the common use of puzzle-solving items which define the structure of mainline Zelda games to become entire playstyles unto themselves, and that's frankly a pretty profound thing for each dungeon to work with. They're structured differently and in general more difficult and complex than equivalent OoT dungeons because MM expects you to already have experience from OoT. On top of that, the dungeons are consistently very beautifully tied into the stories of the surrounding region and the overarching narrative of Majora's curses and torment of Termina's populace. Only Twilight Princess tends to reach a comparable level in terms of lore, and even then, not always.

Every BotW dungeon is F- tier. They took the worst dungeons in the series and put them all in the same game. Makes you appreciate the other games more. Bold strategy

Can I just say that Fyrus is one of the most terrifying bosses in the series? When I first encountered him, I spent more time trying to run away than fighting him.

I like your list but please dont give the forest temple a d

I like the list and there are good arguments about everything and why u count them at what tier. U put a lot of work into these, however, I am missing the dungeons from Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks as those are very much also 3D games. Both games are hardly seen anywhere so it's a bit sad they were forgotten in a tier list they clearly would be part of. Great video tho

The twinmold fight in MM3D drags on for long because the red twinmold regenerates health. The Project Restoration hack fixes this so the fight no longer drags on.

Seeing all these dungeons in quick succession really makes me appreciate the art design for all of these.

I’m not even done the video yet, but I HAD to come say this so I didn’t forget. I always feel like I’m alone in my opinion (at least with people I’ve spoken to about it) that Snowpeak Ruins is one of the best in the series. So I’m OVERJOYED you understand and agree. I love good fights and amazing puzzles, but atmosphere and a sense of mystery is what always grabs and holds my attention. Which is also why I agree with you that the OoT Forest Temple is also my favorite of OoT (maybe the whole series as well). We might have different opinions on some other temples, but that’s what’s amazing about seeing other’s opinions! You pointed out things I’ve never thought of and it makes me look at some temples in a different way and makes me respect and enjoy them more. PS, I love your content and you’re definitely my favorite Zelda KZreadr! 💚

Ive always considered Lakebed to be the best water themed dungeon in the series, and City in the Sky is my favorite dungeon period. Seeing both get C-tier on this highly subjective personal ranking fills me with seething rage!

This video reminds me why Twilight Princess is my absolute favorite game of all time, the dungeons are all just fantastic with some obviously lesser than others. The game however makes it so satisfying to actually get to the dungeons, you have to work to get to them and for me it makes them way more enjoyable.

I'm a sucker for the Sandship from Skyward Sword. Loved the unique ability of the timeshift stones more better on the Sandship and around the general Lanayru Sand Sea when exploring it with Captain Skipper more better than in or around the Lanayru Mining Facility. The timeshift stones have a more greater impact in terms of traveling and reshaping of the environment in the sand sea rather than around the outside within the Lanayru Desert and/or inside of the mining facility. Yes, the timeshift stones are still a pretty cool thing to utilize around the Lanayru Desert and in the mining facility, just that the sand sea and the Sandship capitalizes on the use of the timeshift stones. Although other than all of that, I really liked the feel of the Sandship when you activate the timeshift stone to view the present or past of the ship, especially the change of music when you change between the past and present. The Sandship makes you feel like you're actually exploring the ship from the top decks, the interior of the ship and Brig, and to the engine room area of the ship. The rooms have great cohesion and remains consistent to the shape of the ship rather than being lazy in development and have rooms sticking out randomly in out of bounds beyond the shape and dimensions of the ship. The Tentalus final boss can be a bit difficult when dealing with its tentacles IMO, but remains a pretty lack luster boss when you figure out its VERY obvious weak spot. Other than that, the change of atmosphere when fighting the boss and when trying to escape the ship from the Captains Quarters feels like something bad had REALLY happened and Tentalus destroying the ship feels like it's destroying an artistic masterpiece. I guess Skipper recalibrated something with the timeshift stone on the ships main mast to make the ship whole again after defeating Mike Wazowskis obese girlfriend and obsorbing Nayrus flame into the Skyward Sword. I don't know how he got the ship all repaired and seaworthy again in a matter of minutes without the aid of the timeshift stone after the ship was basically ripped apart in two, but I guess some things are not worth trying to logic I guess, game theory that shit. I really liked exploring the Sandship again and exploring the sand sea even in the endgame. I just really like appreciating the Sandship and exploring the sand sea especially when the timeshift stones are involved. When you complete the Sandship, I really liked going down to the Brig in the past to see all the bokoblins locked up and using the Beetle to fly through the jail bars to spook the fuck out of the bokoblins, lol. I guess that's my explanation on why the Sandship is my favorite Zelda dungeon. Just a well designed dungeon that best utilizes the timeshift stones a bit more better than the Lanayru Mining Facility IMO, but is subject to debate. If not, then I guess I like how the timeshift stone environmentally enhances the Sandship. Forgive me if I got some things wrong here and there, it's been a long time since I played Skyward Sword. 😅

Thanks for keeping me entertained through this MASSIVE content drought while we anxiously wait for totk. That being said the judgements you made for the temples were pretty spot on, especially since I find the Forest Temple to be the most memorable and interesting by far! Great job!

Ancient Cistern in S tier where it belongs. I remember playing the game and looking forward to that dungeon. Not just for the gorgeous atmosphere, but for the boss. Koloktos is one of the greats in terms of Zelda bosses.

I personally loved the Goron Mines in Twilight Princess, simply because it was the first dungeon that felt like it was based in some form of reality, instead of simply being a dungeon for a dungeons sake. A lot of the places in Twilight Princess felt the same, which fit super well with the ‘realistic Zelda’ theme of the game

It's not mentioned here but I really like the dungeons in A Link Between Worlds. I think the use of the wall merging mechanic for several are super fun. I also like the dungeons in Phantom Hourglass. I won't count Triforce Heroes because it doesn't really have dungeons but I think it's an absolutely underrated LoZ game with super fun boss levels.

TP is the best overall imo, I didn’t care for BOTW - too open, non traditional dungeons, no overworld music, all bosses looked the same and were boring. BOTW is the most overrated game of all time.

I'd like to note that Fierce Diety's mask was only given when all 20 non transformation mask in Majora were given to the Moon Children; requiring you to finish all sidequests in that playthrough. Which is something I think noone did as a kid on their first playthrough (Bomber's notebook was more obtuse in the original version). So the boss itself was a very cool fight if you didn't have it.

Excellent video! Really appreciate the time and effort that went into this amazing tier list!

Rock solid commentary. Thanks for the effort put into this one.

Something I think is interesting about the Ancient Cistern is that the rope that you climb seems to be inspired by The Spider's Thread short story by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa. It adds another layer of interest for me.

My predictions going in: Water Temple in S tier Edit: My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

I'd love to see what the dungeons of BOTW2 would look like. Perhaps they could do a twist on the Zelda dungeon format, where you get an item that will help you with progression, and is instrumental for defeating the local boss, but if you return later with different items, you can unlock new secrets. And you can do them in any order, like the Divine Beasts, but the one you save for last becomes the hardest.

I haven’t played all 3D games, but in the S Tier I would rank all the dungeons you have ranked there (Forest Temple, Arbiter’s Grounds, Snowpeak Ruins, Ancient Cistern) and just add the City in the Sky. I absolutely loved that dungeon every time I played through Twilight Princess. Twilight Princess in general makes me feel so nostalgic, I’m in love with every part of that game🥹😅

I'd definitely bump up OoTs Spirit Temple to S Tier. Love that one and always have for the comprehensive set of challenges it throws your way and also setting it up this well with the whole Naboru Arc. But all in all a very solid List.

The final trial in botw is super underrated. Easy A for me. I felt it realized the divine beast style challenges in a way the 4 beasts couldn't due to the game's nonlinearity. It aesthetically made sense given the theme it had built to. The boss fight against the monk is incredible and I fully agree one of the best in the series-- especially considering you interact with 120 of these dormant, sleeping monks only to have the 121st one stand up and throw down. My only complaint was that it was too short, keeping it from a personal S rank, but my first playthrough of the final trial was total joy, followed by frustration that the 4 beasts could have been so much more.

Really well done tier list. I agree on all S tier placements. Some of my thoughts: I think Woodfall Temple and Lakebed Temple deserve bonus points for atmosphere and aesthetics. I feel the exact same way for the City in the Sky. It looks cool and is a nice concept, but gameplaywise, it drags on. And I would put TP Hyrule Castle way higher. Great video. I would also love one about 2D dungeons (Palace of Winds better be S tier).

this is literally such an amazing video thank you so much :)
