Flag Race short course guide for Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
The Legend of Zelda series is home to some of the most iconic villains in all of gaming, and Echoes of Wisdom has just introduced a brand-new one, which is the Flag Race mini-game. If you haven’t encountered it already, you’ll unlock it after completing a few specific steps. First, you need to have progressed far enough in the story that Impa tells you about a white horse (you can’t miss it, don’t worry). From there, you’ll need to head to Hyrule Ranch and then close a rift to unlock Zelda’s signature white horse. However, that’s where the challenge starts: upon unlocking this specific horse, Hyrule Ranch starts offering the Flag Race mini-game that has exclusive prizes within. And the Flag race short course is particularly difficult.
How to get a horse in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Today, we’re going over how to complete the Runaway Horse quest in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and get your very own steed.
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is available now, and it’s got the largest overworld of any 2D entry in the series. That means traversing it on foot takes a long time. Fortunately, it’s possible to unlock the ability to tame and ride horses from Hyrule Ranch pretty early on in the game. This is done through the Runaway Horse side quest, which you can activate by talking to a man in Hyrule Ranch (which is a ways northwest from Lueburry’s House, if you’ve made it there).

System: Switch
Release date: September 26, 2024
Developer: Grezzo / Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo
It’s no secret that the Legend of Zelda franchise has seen a big resurgence on Switch. The release of Breath of the Wild in 2017 changed the direction of the series for many years to come – the effects of which we’re still seeing today. For many years, fans wondered if games like Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom would push traditional 2D Zelda titles to the wayside for good. We didn’t have a definitive answer for the longest time, but this week, we finally got it – The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is finally here, and it proves that 2D Zelda not only is here to stay, but has a place alongside Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom as one of the better games in the series. Echoes of Wisdom is a clever, innovative title that brings forth a new and fully fleshed-out way to play the game.

We’ve got a complete list of all echoes in The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom following today’s launch.
Echoes are how you’ll do most of your exploring in the game. With the fairy Tri at your side who gives you access to the Tri Rod, you can create imitations of things found in the environment. These can then be used when you’re looking to solve puzzles and battle enemies.
How long it takes to beat Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

Now that The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom has launched, some fans might be curious as to how long it takes to beat the game.
Echoes of Wisdom is available now on Switch, and it’s the first truly new top-down entry in the series since A Link Between Worlds over ten years ago. Whereas new 3D Zelda titles are notorious for taking well over 150 hours to fully complete, Echoes of Wisdom is more of a bite-sized adventure in comparison. Still, there’s plenty of content on offer, especially if you’re going for 100 percent completion.

Now that Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is out on Switch, we’re able to see how the game holds up from a technical perspective – specifically frame rate and resolution. Digital Foundry delved into these topics in a new video today.
Unfortunately, similar to Grezzo’s remake of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, the main issue plaguing the game currently is the frame rate. Those hoping for a smooth 60 FPS experience might be a little disappointed.
