My Hilarious Journey Building a Dream Home in Hyrule
Discover how building a mansion in Tears of the Kingdom transforms chaos into luxury, blending epic quests with real estate perks for an adventurous upgrade.
Who knew saving Hyrule came with real estate perks? As a humble adventurer who once crashed in a glorified Hateno Village closet, I nearly wept when I discovered Link could finally build a proper mansion in Tears of the Kingdom. Forget dodging Lynels—scraping together Rupees for down payments and placating construction crews became my new epic quest. Let’s dive into how I traded chaos for chandeliers!
🏡 Goodbye, Hateno Hovel; Hello, Tarrey Town Luxury
Remember that dingy shack from Breath of the Wild? Useless! My upgraded abode sits just outside Tarrey Town, offering weapon displays 🗡️, horse stables 🐴, and a kitchen where I don’t burn elixirs. But first, I had to navigate Hudson’s family drama.
🧩 Mattison’s Independence: Babysitting for Real Estate Access
To unlock homeownership, I became an unpaid babysitter. Hudson’s daughter Mattison needed "help" before moving to Gerudo Town. Tasks included:
-
Fetching cuckoo eggs 🥚 (why are they always angry?)
-
Fixing Hudson signs (marketing runs deep here)
-
Emotional support for Hudson (dude cried like a Zora)
Only after bidding farewell to mini-Gerudo-in-training could I even talk to Rhondson about mortgages.
💰 Rupee Rampage: Selling Ancient Junk for a Roof
Rhondson’s "starter package"? Two rooms for 1,500 Rupees. I nearly choked on my dubious meat skewer. Pro tip: Grind the Messages From an Ancient Era quest—it nets 1,200 Rupees for deciphering old rocks! My methods:
Income Source | Rupees Earned | Time Spent |
---|---|---|
Selling monster parts | 300 | 2 hours |
Ancient tablet quest | 1,200 | 1 hour |
Gambling with Bokoblins | Lost 50 | Regret |
🛠️ Meeting Grantéson: Hyrule’s Most Chill Contractor
After handing Rhondson my life savings, I met Grantéson—a dude chilling on a hill near Rasitakiwak Shrine. His vibe: "Place rooms anywhere, bro."
🔨 Ultrahand Architect Simulator: Where Physics Defy Logic
Using Ultrahand to stack rooms felt like playing with supernatural LEGO. The rules:
-
Stay inside rope boundaries (mostly)
-
Fuse rooms at wonky angles (why not a floating bedroom?)
-
Hope it doesn’t collapse (it did… twice)
I created a monstrosity linking a garden to a weapon vault via a kitchen. Pure chaos!
🎁 Rhondson’s Blessing and Glorious Paraglider Bling
Once Grantéson stopped laughing at my design, Rhondson arrived. She approved my deathtrap mansion 🎉 and gifted the Hudson Construction Fabric—now my paraglider sports corporate branding. Talk about selling out! Plus, I unlocked more room options:
-
Stables for my 20 horses
-
Ponds (for… fish therapy?)
-
Display rooms for all my Korok seeds 🌰
So, fellow heroes! Ditch those Bokoblin camps and start stacking rooms. Your dream home awaits—just avoid fusing the outhouse to the kitchen. 👷 Ready to build? Grab your Switch and unleash your inner architect today! 🎮✨
