Minish Cap Guide Reivew
I was very pleased with my purchase of this product. It was just what I needed and was delivered sooner than expected.

A Must Have Companion to Time-Starved Gameplayers
The game, The Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap, while not difficult to play, is one full of secrets and hidden items, and it's nearly impossible to find every separate item without some sort of help, or if you have oodles of time on your hands in which to stare at the tiny Gameboy Advance screen. So, if you're picking up the game and you're time-starved, then I'd definitely recommend the guide to go with it.

First off (and this is the reason why I give it only four stars), it starts out with the basic game tutorial, essentially the repeat of the in-game booklet, but after that short section, it gets right into the adventure, and details as you go where to find every item that can be obtained at that time. It also details every boss fight and how best to handle the puzzles along the way.

The appendix, like in all strategy guides, is where the money you spent (or will spend) goes. In this guide, it shows the location of every heart piece and in what order they should be obtained. It also has a section for Kinstone pairings and when you should locate the pairing and fuse Kinstones, an essential section, I think, as some things can actually be missed if you wait to long to fuse. After that is a section for sword techniques, and this also tells when you can obtain each separate one, and how to find the masters who teach these techniques. Though not important, it has two pages dedicated to figurine collecting as well, such as how best to obtain Mysterious Shells and a checklist of sorts to cross off all of those you may have collected.

I won't, however, recommend this book to game purists, as it does have quite a few spoilers in it. And if you actually like the endless exploration and finding the things yourself, then I'd also stay clear of this. Otherwise, pick this guide up if you have the game and want to complete it in one go.
