Zelda Ocarina Remake: Dodongo's Cavern Walkthrough [Full Guide]

Completing Dodongo's Cavern in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake requires players to harvest bomb flowers to blast stone blockades, secure the Bomb Bag treasure, and toss explosive charges directly into King Dodongo’s fiery mouth to claim the Goron's Ruby. According to verified reports from TheGamer, the newly launched remake faithfully recreates the iconic second dungeon on Death Mountain while enhancing visual fidelity and puzzle physics. Entering the subterranean dungeon requires Link to feed a bomb flower to the external boulder blocking the mouth of the cavern. Inside, players navigate floating stone platforms across molten lava, disarm explosive Lizalfos combat encounters, and trigger lowering staircases by chaining chain-reaction blast flowers. The mid-dungeon prize, the Bomb Bag, expands Link's inventory capacity to twenty explosives, rendering future dungeon traversal far more manageable. Navigating Dodongo's Cavern also yields multiple collectible Gold Skulltula tokens tucked behind breakable walls and high ledges.
