Hyrule Castle

Hyrule Castle is the home of the royal family of Hyrule, usually including Princess Zelda and the normally unseen King of Hyrule. The castle's first appearance was in A Link to the Past, the third game in the series. Each game that contains the Castle either features a different layout, or denies the player access to parts that are available in other games. There are grounds for speculation that the castle is actually a different castle in each game, or, perhaps it is the same castle but was changed in each game for aesthetic or gameplay purposes.

Hyrule Castle is usually directly in the center of Hyrule's layout in each game, serving as the crown jewel of the kingdom.

So that in mind I wanted to make a sims 3 version of the castle, as requested by Zelda_Harkain, so a special thanks to Zelda_Harkain for making the request and inspireing me to make this castle.

So welcome to Hyrule Castle

I could probable fill about 10 pages showing you all the detail inside the castle but for this presentation I will just show the main features, If you wish to see stuff like Zelda's bedroom the hidden maze and the castle gardens you will need to view them in game.

The walls directly above the castle are built in the shape of a crown

The layout inside the castle is pretty complex, It gives you a real feeling of height, thou you should have plenty of room for expansion and many unused rooms to add your own objects, also another idea would be to turn this building into a community lot, a intresting place for your sims to get lost in. :lol:

Ruins and a portal, Link used to travel back to the past, can be found around the outside of the castle 8)

Many thanks for taking the time to view, I hope this might bring a little fantasy to your game. :oops:

    :shock: WOW!!!!!! That is so cool. I love all the Zelda games! That must have taken forever to make. You should try making some of the other places from the games and have a whole Hyrule town lol! So what's your favorite Zelda? I like Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.

    SimInTheSun Many thanks SimInTheSun :D , :lol: Not sure about Link being hot, me being a man and all that, but I'm not worrid I look more like Aragorn out of lord the rings..... :oops:

    Rika701 Thanks rika, Not sure aboout forever to make, I think I started building Tuesday night, the hardest part was working out the layout, it could not be like a normal castle, I wanted to include a fantasy type theme. I've not played all the Zelda games, but if I was to choose a favorite, I would go with the original link to the past, I just enjoyed the story more than the others, thou I did enjoy Ocarina Of Time. Thanks thanks for you nice comments. :D

    Amazing Job!! My husband and I love the Zelda games. Your attention to detail (i.e. the crates stacked in the corner) is phenomenal.
