This was pretty much the final game, the control style is the same as the final one except that the 'A' and 'B' buttons have switched roles.

Although quite a lot of stuff was still being changed it was mostly minor, the story had been finalized and most things were probably just being tested to make sure they worked properly.

The mysterious road, part of Lon-Lon Ranch? I suppose we'll never know. I can't think of any purpose an infinitely long road would serve, but I suppose it must have had one. Some people speculate that this may have been an early version of Hyrule field. | |
Link has a smaller than normal magic meter too. | |
This appears to be Lake Hylia. | |
Although this looks more like the bottom of the well, I think it's actually the room above the one where you fight King Dodongo. The chest would have the bombs in it and that brown patch on the floor looks just like something that should be bombed, but, who really knows? | |
The "Unicorn Fountain".
Personally, I think this is just what the Great Fairy fountains used to look like, it's got the falling water walls, the stone tiled entrance, the Triforce symbol to play Zelda's lullaby next to, it's got the white sand and it even has the little pond of water in the middle. | |
It's possible that this was a special Fairy Fountain, perhaps even the one where you received the blade beam attack. | |
A Redead in one of the graves in the graveyard, from memory that chest has a Hylian shield in it, but in the final version it's a small chest and I don't think the Redead is there. | |
The spikes that line the walls in the final version aren't here. | |
This is obviously Zora's Domain, but where has Link just come from? He seems to be coming out of the ceiling... but those are ripples at the bottom of the screen, the waterfall must have been huge. | |
A deserted looking Zora's Domain.
That white thing beyond Link might be a Zora. The layout of this place certainly looks very different. | |
Yellow damage puts in an appearance, and the Bean seller/eater isn't there. | |
