The '''Underground Maze''' ({{ja|迷宮|Meikyū}}) is the [[The Legend of Zelda (universe)|''Zelda'' series]]-themed level found in [[Adventure Mode]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It is designed like a labyrinth, with branching pathways, and includes ''Zelda'' enemies such as [[ReDead]]s, [[Like Like]]s, and [[Octoroks]].

==Overview==
The '''Underground Maze''' ({{ja|迷宮|Meikyū}}, known internally as '''3-1MEIKYU''') is the [[The Legend of Zelda (universe)|''Zelda'' series]]-themed level found in [[Adventure Mode]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. It is designed like a labyrinth, with branching pathways, and also has ''Zelda'' enemies, such as [[ReDead]]s, [[Like Like]]s, and [[Octoroks]].
There are six open chambers in the dungeon, five of which contain a pedestal with the [[Master Sword]]. If the player sets foot in one of these chambers, they will trigger a battle with {{SSBM|Link}}. It is possible to avoid these battles by jumping over the chamber's floor. The sixth chamber contains the [[Triforce]], which serves as the stage's exit. If the player defeats all five Links before reaching the Triforce, they will receive the Link Master [[List of bonuses|bonus]]. The locations of the five Master Swords and the Triforce are random.


The Underground Maze is available through hacking. Entering one of the chambers may cause unwanted results, such as the game crashing or the match ending.
There are six open spaces in the dungeon, one of which contains a pedestal with the Triforce, which is the stage's exit. The other five contain a pedestal with a [[Master Sword]], which will summon [[Link (SSBM)|Link]] to fight the player. If all five Links are defeated before the Triforce is reached, the player will receive the Link Master bonus. The location of the Triforce is random.


Just like [[Temple]], this stage [[Alternate music|occasionally plays the theme]] ''{{MeleeMusic|Fire Emblem}}'', though one can force it to play by pressing the L or R button before starting the level.

The stage is known internally by the {{SSBM|debug menu}} as '''3-1MEIKYU''', where "3-1" refers to its position in Adventure Mode, and "Meikyū" translates to "Maze" or "Labyrinth" from Japanese.

Dungeons are a core element in the majority of ''Zelda'' games. Link frequently has to navigate several of them - often centered on a specific theme like fire, water, or forest - while solving puzzles and defeating enemies and bosses in order to find magical objects and progress the plot. In particular, finding a piece of the [[zeldawiki:Triforce#Triforce of Wisdom|Triforce of Wisdom]] (as opposed to the full Triforce in this stage) is the goal of every dungeon in the original ''[[The Legend of Zelda]]''. The side-scrolling nature of ''Smash'' makes the Underground Maze resemble the dungeons of ''{{s|zeldawiki|Zelda II: The Adventure of Link}}'', which, unlike the rest of the main ''Zelda'' games, utilizes a side-scrolling view instead of a top-down or 3D one.

The Master Sword is a recurring legendary sword, which Link obtains by pulling it from its pedestal in both ''{{s|zeldawiki|The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past}}'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]''. The design of the sword and pedestal in this stage are based on their appearances in ''Ocarina of Time''. The presence of multiple swords in this stage could be a reference to the fake swords in ''A Link to the Past'', used as decoys for anybody in search of the real Master Sword.
