#Myahm Agana

i never really understood what "seeing red" meant until just now. For a brief moment in my anger all I could see was red and bits of white and everything looked like a goddamn target

Welcome to Jungle Run!

This is an incredibly self-indulgent blog where I post polls of trios and you vote whether they would win the golden monkey or not. The golden monkey is the top prize, and your team must use your speed and wits to get to it in time.

Now, wtf is Jungle Run?

Jungle run is a game show that aired 1999-2006 where a group of kids do challenges and are rewarded with monkey statues. Each monkey statue gives them 10 seconds in the final temple where they have up to 3 minutes to complete 4 challenges. After completing each challenge they will get, in order: The Stone monkey, Bronze monkey, Silver monkey and the Golden monkey.

The goal is to get as many monkeys as you can, and bring them out with you before you run out of time and the door to the temple closes.

You can watch the first episode on youtube (and many more)!

The voting options

Yes, with the golden monkey They have enough time to complete all the challenges, take each monkey and get out before the door closes

No, they lose at the final riddle and get silver The final challenge in this season is to solve an easy question with a 5-letter answer, and each person has to stand on the right letter at the same time (on different platforms) to spell the answer.

No, they lose at the cog puzzle and get bronze A lot of kids have lost to the cog puzzle. You have to use your smarts to put a few cogs in the right place so you can spin them and make the door open.

No, they lose at the jigsaw puzzle and get stone A surprising amount of kids lose to the jigsaw puzzle. It's a large 6-piece puzzle. There are faint marks that show where each piece goes. You probably lose here if you're panicking, uncoordinated, or have never done a jigsaw puzzle in your life.

No, they lose at the ball maze and get nothing The "ball maze" means they have to tilt a platform with a maze and a ball in it until the ball goes into the hole, similar to the Myahm Agana Shrine in BOTW.

No, they run out of time and get locked in It doesn't matter how many monkeys they got, because they didn't make it out in time. Maybe they got too greedy or were too slow.

Submission rules

Of course you can submit your own trios to compete. Here are the rules:

Submit through my ask box! You can include a picture and/or propaganda if you want.

They should be a trio. I can make occasional exceptions if it's a 4 person group (because early jungle run had groups of 4!) and maybe if it's a funny "could they solo jungle run". But generally just 3 characters. Also, they don't have to be associated in canon, you can make up any team you like.

Any ages are ok, even though it's a game meant for kids.

Real people are allowed at my discretion.

So I logged in to BOTW (like any silly Zelda fan does) to make a side by side comparison to ToTK trailer and confirmed that:

That green swirl thing was where Myahm Agana shrine is located

The Hateno Tower is missing

I wonder if Link had to revisit all 120 shrines to retrieve some spirit orbs again, and if the shine tests will be different.

Congratulations on your 100 milestone! For a prompt, how about Link brings Zelda inside a shrine?

Tysm for the prompt @linksthoughtbrambles. Enjoy!

“Ready?” Link steps inside the alcove of Myahm Agana Shrine.

“Ready!” Zelda joins him on the platform made for one.

They’re standing close. When the shrine rumbles and they begin to descend, Zelda shrieks with the sudden movement and closes the distance, holding on for dear life. Link’s hands find her waist in the dark.

By the time they emerge from the pitch black shaft they’re kissing. Link only feels slightly guilty when they break apart and he glances at the empty pedestal where the ancient mummy had rested.

Awestruck, Zelda turns to study the apparatus controlling the maze. “Wow!”

I am attempting to learn windbombs because they sounded like they can't possibly be more frustrating than trying to beat Myahm Agana (better known as That Fucking Hateno Shrine) in the intended manner. So far they're pretty frustrating, but I think I managed one? It ended abruptly on the hill below the cliff I'm using for practice because I didn't manage to pull out my paraglider at the end, but I spent the last twenty minutes falling into Firly Pond at exactly the same spot, so it's an improvement? I think.

(I am not trying in the shrine until I have them consistent. Shrines are very stressful places)

Myahm Agana Apparatus, My Favorite One

The cheesiest gyro-control shrine in Breath of the Wild. From my Master Mode self-imposed-challenge playthrough.

[redrain0o0]

holy fucking shit I'm going to kill Myahm Agana.

"Oh, goddess Hylia has gifted my a spirit orb, I know what puzzle I'll make, a fucking GYRO PUZZLE! ISN'T IT JUST SOOOO FUN WHEN THE SHRINES PUZZLE ISN'T EVEN A PUZZLE, BUT A CHEAP AND STUPID USE OF GYRO CONTROLS??? OH HYLIA WILL JUST LOOOOVE THIS ONE!"

[dazzlerazz]

Myahm Agana shrine won't work with the joycons I'm using and I don't want to give up so I'm spending a lot more time trying to windbomb over

New YouTube Short is up on my YouTube channel! This is a clip from my livestream of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the Nintendo Switch, where I solve a particularly infamous puzzle… Check it out!

[silkhy-john]

Those Breath Of The Wild Apparatus shrines were all an exercise in misery. Ze Kasho, Myahm Agana, Toto Sah… May the goddess watch over you cause if I catch you—

[luna-spacedoodles]

marble mania for the wii ran so the myahm agana shrine could lag and suck absolute ass

[hangedstan96]

Myahm Agana shrine is still my least favourite shrine 🙃

[roosterbox]

When you start replaying Breath of the Wild because it sounded like fun, then realize that you’re gonna have to do your least favorite shrine AGAIN

But then you solve it on your very first attempt

Perhaps my greatest gaming moment

So I can’t really afford a Switch right now and I’ll be damned if I’m buying a Wii U, but I did kind of want to play Breath of the Wild. So I finally got around to downloading the CEMU emulator. The framerate isn’t great, but the game is at least playable and it’s been fun so far.

What I did not realize was that there were shrines with puzzles that relied on you tilting the controller. The emulator does let you do that with some fiddling, but it reacts really weirdly. (And I suck at these puzzles already)

I’d already given up on one that required you to first tilt a platform so you could reach a chest and a get a key and then tilt it entirely differently to actually get to a locked door. And then I got to Myahm Agana shrine. The one with the maze you have tilt to guide a ball through it.

I had heard about flipping the maze, but the weird emulated tilting controls made that impossible. Instead I spent 30 minutes fighting with the controls. I even made it to the end of the maze, but couldn’t get the speed I needed to make the ball clear the gap between the tilting maze and the track it had to land on.

I got annoyed and spun the maze at random just as a new ball dropped down. Of course it got knocked away and I calmed down and decided to wait for the next one. And then no new ball came.

Confused, I looked around just in time to see the ball I’d knocked away calmly rolling into the hole to open the door. My annoyed flailing had knocked it over the fence and on to the track!

I died laughing.

Link, dealing with the ball maze shrine puzzle: I will prevail!!! To save all of Hyrule along with Princess Zelda!!!

Link, five hours later: I’m going to practice the ancient tradition of giving up

Bonus

Link: The Ancient Sheikah are so advanced, but can’t develop good motion controls???

Urbosa: You know, you can always flip it over and use the underside to roll it down

Link:

This shrine isn’t nearly as difficult as people make it out to be. All it requires is a little patience and slow, steady movements. In other words, don’t freak out and it’s easy peasy.

This was only the second ball. So, not the first try, but close.
