   Keep an eye on your clock and make sure you aren't running low on time, and don't worry about losing your place in the game. There are now owl statues, which are located in almost every area of the game. Hit the statue to remember your place, and you can warp to that location with a tune of your Ocarina. This system may seem a bit complicated, but you will eventually get used to it after the first 20 minutes of gameplay. Also keep in mind that some tasks can only be accomplished at night, others during the day, and some must be done at a specific time.

   In the bottom-left corner is your wallet amount. This will display how many rupees you have currently collected, and when in dungeons, you can see how many Small Keys you've collected so far. You can increase the size of your wallet by depositing 200 rupees into your bank account in Clock Town. Right in the center of the screen (on the bottom) is your on-screen clock. You can see the hour and minute hand, as well as what day it is here, make sure you keep a watch on your clock, just to make sure you're not running low on time. Moving along, in the bottom right corner is your mini-map. Some areas have no maps, in which case there will be nothing here, but when you have a map of a dungeon or a town, it will appear in a mini version here.

   Finally, in the top right corner of the screen is your action area. You have the A and B buttons, which light up when you are supposed to press them (for instance, when standing in front of a door, the A button will light up on the screen, saying the word "Open" meaning you press the A button to open the door) and you also have your 3 action buttons (C-Left, C-Down, C-Right.) You are allowed to set 3 items to your action buttons (1 on each button) and then when that button is pressed, the item that is set to it will be in use. For example, say you have the Ocarina set to the C-Right button, whenever you press C-Right, Link will take out his Ocarina. The game screen is pretty much the same as Ocarina of Time, with the addition of the on-screen clock.

   Remember, this is totally optional, but it is rather useful because you can maximize your Magic Meter, or receive other helpful rewards. You will also notice that some fairies are blue, while others are yellow. There is no difference between the colors of the two, it just adds a little variety to the game, rather than having the same color all the time. This new feature kind of replaces the Gold Skulltulla collection (which was found in Ocarina of Time) but it's totally up to you whether you want to collect the fairies or not, it is not mandatory, but if you do collect them, it's beneficial to your game.

   There is now a new feature with the Ocarina ("new feature" meaning that I'm comparing it to Ocarina of Time) which is different instruments. That's right, you can now play songs on other instruments other than the plain old Ocarina. When you are Deku Link, you can play with Deku Pipes, and as Goron Link, you can play with a bongo drum set. This is a nice change from Ocarina of Time, as it adds a variety of sounds to listen to. As you learn new songs, they are recorded in your game status menu, so you'll never lose them once you learn them. If you forget how to play a song, use the game menu as a reference on the correct buttons to press.
