Through his quest, Link will have the opportunity to participate in a number of minigames. Although none of them are mandatory to complete, they often have rewards that are well worth obtaining. Many minigames can be completed multiple times, but after each special prize is obtained, the reward will usually be rupees. Detailed strategies and relevant maps will be provided for some of the more complex minigames.

Fishing

Horseback Archery

Bombchu Bowling

The Bombachu Bowling Alley is located in Hyrule Square in the past. It's a fun little minigame with a possiblity of getting a heart piece. You are given 10 Bombachus (small mouse shaped bombs that move along the ground). Your objective is to aim the bombachu and send it into the target (a large black hole).

First Level The first level is fairly easy, as most first levels are. There are no obstacles and the target is placed in a random location on the wall.

Second Level In the second level there is a an obstacle and the target is a bit farther away. The obstacle is the humorous part it's a chicken! The chicken waddles left and right occasionally stops for a moment.

Third Level The Third level is the final one, hopefully you still have at least five bombachus left because this is the hardest level. Now there are two chickens, a large hen and a chick. If you time it carefully though you can still make it into the target and recieve your prize!

Diving Game

The diving game can be found in Zora's Domain as a child, at the top of the waterfall near King Zora's Throne Room. After paying 20 rupees to play, the game's proprietor will throw green and blue rupees into the water below. Dive off the waterfall and try to collect them all within the time limit to receive the Silver Scale. If you play the game after that, she will sometimes throw more valuable rupees into the water.

This game relies on being able to quickly locate and collect the underwater rupees. The dispersion of the rupees is random, and sometimes they are easier to collect than others.

Horse Racing

The first horse race in which Link can participate is against Ingo, the proprietor of Lon Lon Ranch after Link first becomes an adult.

After Link obtains Epona, Malon will also allow him to play a horse racing minigame.

If you can complete the course in under 50 seconds, Malon will deliver a cow to your house to provide you with an endless supply of Lon Lon Milk.

Shooting Gallery

As a child, Link can test his accuracy at the Shooting Gallery in Hyrule Castle Market. If he manages to break all twenty of the targets, he will be rewarded with a bigger Deku Seed Bag, or a Purple Rupee.

As an adult, Link can test his accuracy at the Shooting Gallery in Kakariko Village. If he manages to break all twenty of the targets, he will be rewarded with a bigger Quiver, or a Purple Rupee.

Treasure Chest Game

The Treasure Chest Game can be played in the Hyrule Castle Market as young Link, but only at night. In each room, you are presented with two chests--one contains a rupee, the other a key to the next room. As you progress, the value of the rupees increases, until you reach the final room which contains a Heart Piece (or Purple Rupee).

The game is entirely dependent on luck until you have the Lens of Truth. If you equip the Lens of Truth, however, you are able to see the contents of each chest and easily reach the final room.

Skull Kid Jam Session

Enter the Lost Woods and take a right to find two Skull Kids. Hop on the nearby stump and show them your ocarina, after which they will invite you to play a musical memory game with them. They will start by playing, twice, a three note tune, the notes of which you will be able to see on the staff. You will then have to repeat the notes, and they will add a note to the tune until you either fail to repeat them correctly or they are satisfied with your performance and reward you with rupees and, eventually, a Heart Piece.

It is not overly difficult to remember the tune, but the easiest way to win is to simply write down the notes as they are played.

Musical Frogs

Dampe's Gravedigging Tour

Dampe the Gravekeeper's Heart-Pounding Gravedigging Tour can only be accessed at night, from 18:00 to 21:00 Hyrule Time.

Racing Dampe

As an adult, there is one additional grave in the Kakariko Village Graveyard. Pull back the gravestone to reveal the grave of Dampe the Gravekeeper, whose ghost is all too willing to race you.

The first prize for racing Dampe is the Hookshot, which can be obtained simply by successfully following Dampe to the finish. A map of Dampe's grave will be provided later.

The second prize for racing Dampe is a Piece of Heart, which can be obtained only by beating him to the finish. On foot, it is nearly impossible to beat him. However, if, in the room with a winding ramp before the finish, you use the Longshot to grab a torch near the doorway, you should reach the finish before Dampe's ghost.
