Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom may take less hours to complete than something such as Tears of the Kingdom, but there's still plenty to do during and after the story. Echoes of Wisdom has a total of 50 side quests. The more story quests you complete, the more side quests you'll unlock. Easier quests will give you Rupees or smoothie ingredients, but others may reward you with Accessories, Might Crystals, or Heart Pieces. You can get most side quests by speaking to NPCs with a red objective marker over their head.

The side quests you'll want to prioritize are those that give you Pieces of Heart/Heart Pieces and Accessories. If you're someone who likes to use Swordfighter Mode, then you should do the quests that give out Might Crystals. There are also certain quests that give you gameplay perks, such as "Impa's Gift," meaning you should do those as soon as they become available.
