Elevator Blocks are recurring Objects in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][name references needed]

Location and Uses

Elevator Blocks are obstacles that are found inside Dungeons. They come in two sets, usually in differing colors; one set that acts as barriers that impede Link's path, and another set that has retracted into the floor and poses no such barrier. They are accompanied by one or more Shock Switches that, when struck, cause the two sets of Elevator Blocks to swap states, lowering one set of barriers while raising the other. Normally they and the shock switches are colored red and blue.

A Link to the Past



The Elevator Blocks make their debut in A Link to the Past, with the Crystal Switches being the color of the lowered Blocks. If Link happens to stand on a lowered Elevator Block and toggles the Crystal Switch, Link will not rise with the Blocks since the game treats it as if Link is embedded in the wall.

Link's Awakening



Elevator Blocks function the same, but now the game does properly handle Link standing on top of a Elevator Block upon toggling the Crystal Switch.

Phantom Hourglass

Elevator Blocks function the same as before. They are also displayed on the map screen.
