The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening – How to Unlock Red or Blue Suit Armor
Successfully complete the Color Dungeon to unlock either the Red or Blue Suit armor. The Red Suit doubles your attack damage, while the Blue Suit halves the amount of damage you take from enemies. You can only choose one, but both are extremely good.
The Color Dungeon is a special colorful dungeon that is optional. To unlock the Color Dungeon, reach the Cemetery region. It is available once you complete the first two dungeons and have the Power Bracelet and Roc’s Feather. To enter the dungeon, you must push five gravestones in a specific order and push each one in a certain direction.
Note: The clue is located on a book in the Mabe Village library. Once you unlock the ability to sprint, you can knock the book down and find the code. However, finding this code is not required. Go to the Cemetery, and locate the five gravestones in the bottom-right corner of the field. Start at the lower-right of the five gravestones, and then push the five gravestones in the following directions: 3: Up, 4: Right, 5: Up, 2: Left, 1: Down. The number indicates the order you need to push the stones. The 3, 4, and 5 stones are located at the top of the Cemetery, and the 2 and 1 stones are located below them. Once all of the stones are pushed, the Color Dungeon entrance will appear. The Color Dungeon contains many strange puzzles. There are also two mini-bosses, as well as a difficult main boss. You will need to bring Magic Powder to defeat the second mini-boss. It helps to have a little extra health before attempting this dungeon. Thus, it is recommended to wait until you have completed Dungeon 3 or Dungeon 4.
