The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Hints
Are there any shortcuts to get past the levels I've already cleared?
1 of 8: Now that you have your bombs, yes, there are.
2 of 8: On the First Basement floor, you will find some explodable rocks at the north of the room. Blow them up and grab the key from behind them. This opens a door also in the north wall, giving a shortcut to the Second Basement.
3 of 8: The shortcut on the Second Basement floor is a little trickier.
4 of 8: You will still need to flip the two purple switches to drop the key.
5 of 8: However, there is now a shortcut available to get to that key.
6 of 8: There is an explodable wall at the south of the passage you enter by.
7 of 8: Blow it up, grab the key the same way as before, and head through the door to the Third Basement.
8 of 8: There aren't any shortcuts on the Third Basement floor, so do as you did the last time to get through.
