Sense
Sense is an ability in Twilight Princess.[1]
Overview
When Link transforms into Wolf Link, he gains the use of greatly enhanced Senses. This ability activates a special combination of enhanced visual and olfactory perception. Visual range is reduced, but Link is able to detect many otherwise hidden things. The Sense ability is notably similar to the power of the Lens of Truth from previous titles, though it can be used indefinitely and does not use up any resources such as the Magic Meter.
Wolf Link's enhanced Senses have a number of vital applications throughout the game. The first use, taught by Midna while in the Castle Sewers,[1] is to detect the Spirit forms of the people of Hyrule trapped within the Twilight. Appearing as a floating greenish flame, these Spirits' true forms can be seen by activating the Senses, enabling Wolf Link to listen to their thoughts. As Wolf Link is unable to communicate directly with the Spirits, this enables him to gain useful information from them about recent events. Wolf Link must also use his Senses to see and defeat certain enemies, such as Ghoul Rats and Poes.
Another application of the Sense ability is the detection of special patches of ground found all across Hyrule. These appear as patches of sparkling light where Wolf Link can dig, usually unearthing items such as Rupees or Hearts. Some of the patches are larger, and can lead to different areas within dungeons, or to Caves.
