The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass Hints
What should I be doing on this floor when I begin?
1 of 5: Your overall goal is to reach the set of steps at the northern end of the room.
2 of 5: To do this, you need to push the two pressure plates on the western and eastern ends of the room.
3 of 5: The western side is relatively easy but it involves you planting the bomb on the switch rather than simply hitting it. This gives you a chance to get closer to the bridge it extends (as it only stays out for a limited period of time).
4 of 5: The eastern side shouldn't give you any problems -- remember to bomb the wall below the gap in order to create a shortcut to allow you to reach the switch before the timer runs out.
5 of 5: Once both switches are active, you can move down to the First Basement.
