30. Shrine: Shorah Hah Shrine: Blue Flame



I would be shocked if anyone didn't love this masterpiece of a shrine. This is a long obstacle course gauntlet, indiana jones-style, which is always a fun type of shrine...

...But this time, it has an extra theme to it: you have to keep transferring this magical blue flame, from torch to torch, past each obstacle. It's like "Trial of Power" but way better and really pretty (Beauty Factor).

I love how you enter the shrine and you can immediately tell it's long and complicated, the paths are everywhere, intertwining with themselves, and you're excited to explore everything here. The variety of obstacles is great. There's some platforming, some combat, some Surprises like a button that makes a giant spike ball roll toward you. Should give Saturation and Legit Gameplay points for all of this.

There's even a silly obstacle where there's water spraying onto the path, and you have to hold your torch in ways that avoid it getting doused. Or maybe you can just shoot an arrow instead of using a torch, or any other solution--the obstacles are open-ended and enjoyably Multi-Solution.

And, a satisfying ending, figuring out one last Legitimate Puzzle to light up several torches in one swoop.
