Summary
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom players have used their creativity to make intriguing contraptions in the game, with one player building a giant slingshot to throw out Bokoblins, similar to Angry Birds.
- The Ultrahand ability in Tears of the Kingdom allows players to manipulate objects and encourages them to think outside the box when it comes to construction in the game.
- With the Autobuild ability, players can save and replicate build recipes, saving time and creating their own unique structures using the Ultrahand ability in the game.
One Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player reimagined the game as Angry Birds, building a giant slingshot to throw out Bokoblins. In Tears of the Kingdom, there are many ways for players to harness their creativity, including Ultrahand, which lets them manipulate all kinds of objects. Since the game's launch, this ability has become a hit with the Zelda community, which has come up with ingenious builds like portable bridges and space rockets.
The sandbox nature of the Ultrahand ability leverages players' imagination and encourages them to think outside the box when messing around with construction materials spread across Hyrule. For newcomers, it can be a laborious task to grasp all the nuances of Ultrahand, as it has many applications in and out of combat. In addition to making weapons, players can snitch materials together to give them new forms, ranging from giant planes to death traps. It shouldn't be confused with Fuse, as Ultrahand allows Link to combine multiple devices and objects rather than fusing only two things together.
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom Trick Solves President Hudson Sign Puzzles in a Second
A Tears of the Kingdom player shares a genius trick for easily solving all President Hudson sign puzzles in the newest Zelda game.
A Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom player known on Reddit as Ddoodles_ shared a clip that reimagines the game as Angry Birds, making a slingshot to throw smaller enemies like Bokoblins. This functional device consists of two mechanisms, which can be created by combining construct heads, a hover stone, and a stabilizer. First, players must attach railings and a hover stone together to get the base. Then, they must build a T-shaped structure with three railings, put a construct head on the top, and slide it into the frame. When they add Zonai rockets on both sides of the hover stone, players will have a functional slingshot that throws smaller enemies as projectiles.
The core part of this hilarious slingshot is the hover stone, which connects all railings, rockets, and the construct head together. It's one of Tears of the Kingdom's Zonai tools that can be acquired by spending Zonaite credits on device dispensers. The build also relies heavily on railings, which are found in the Right Leg Depot dungeon.
Aside from Ultrahand, Tears of the Kingdom players have access to the ability to save build recipes and replicate them any time they want. Called Autobuild, it gives access to everything they have previously made with Ultrahand and brings them to life if all required materials are in the inventory. This timesaving ability is obtained upon finishing the Mystery in the Depths quest.
