Ok this was one COOL minigame. Break incoming blocks of ice with cryonis while riding prince zora, get launched into the air, swim up waterfalls using zora armor then shoot the elephant's weak points with shock arrows in slow motion. All to open the door to the dungeon.

Dungeon 1 beaten.

I've heard people complain online these dungeons are short. This is true. However, I didn't feel underwhelmed. It was a pretty fun dungeon, with an ingenious puzzle involving controlling the elephant's trunk to make its water do things for you, in order to activate 5 control pads. In older zeldas, it would be the same puzzle but with dozens of rooms of random puzzles separating the pads from one another. Honestly, the 120 shrines already provide the random puzzles. I would prefer to get one epic dungeon, of course, but this was short and sweet. Also, considering the benchmark are the other water dungeons in the series, this one is doing pretty well!

Also cool boss. This one is less "use the dungeon item to expose weak point" and more pure fighting, with some water and "use cryonis to defend from ice blocks" thrown in the mix. Not too hard, though. That lynel could wipe the floor with this guy.

Got a magic power that revives me whenever I die, though I assume it comes with some cooldown. And the obligatory heart container.

Elephant then climbs a mountain and fires a laser at Ganon to weaken his power. Ok so that's how this will work. I was expecting some epic fight scene with the beasts and Ganon, but I guess that's the protagonist's job.
