The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Master Quest was a bonus game released on a promotional disc also containing the original Ocarina of Time. Master Quest is, in fact, the holy "Ura Zelda" that was supposed to be a 64DD extension disk...though some fans were a bit miffed that this amounted to nothing more than a new logo and reworked dungeon object layouts.

This version would later be flipped horizontally and included as part of the Ocarina of Time 3D remake with other changes both major (such as doubling the damage Link takes from enemies) and minor.

Unused Locked Door

In the Water Temple, in the room with the big whirlpool and rolling boulders, there's a locked door which you would normally need a key to enter. However, the level designers mistakenly made that locked door correspond to the same bit in memory as the dragon head statues before Dark Link, resulting in the door being unlocked after you raise the dragon head statues.

Since the locked door is not normally reachable without going through the room with the dragon head statues, it is never seen. The corresponding key was left in, so most gamers assumed it was just an extra key since, after playing through the whole dungeon, there's no door left to unlock with it.

This was fixed in Ocarina of Time 3D.

Misplaced Bushes

There are two grass objects outside the Deku Tree dungeon map: number 0125 and variable FF01. They are loaded in room #8, the brown room containing a Gold Skulltula.

Jabu-Jabu's Belly (Room 5)

OoTMQ-hiddenobjects-JJB.png

After fighting the sub-boss and climbing the elevator, the next room will have a cow in the wall which, when shot, will move four Hookshot posts, revealing two boxes and another cow. The box is required to advance forward, but the cow doesn't seem to serve any obvious purpose aside from collecting milk from it and it's located in a strange place. Its tail also gets detached from the way the Hookshot posts move it up and it also lacks collision. Both of these issues were fixed in Ocarina of Time 3D.

The room also generates a Like-Like and a brown platform, but they do not appear because there are no actors for these objects.

White Bubbles

White Bubbles, which only appear in one room of Spirit Temple in the original game, do not appear in Master Quest at all, making them unused. This is the only enemy to appear in Ocarina of Time but not in Master Quest.
