We've all played them. Backtracking, not knowing where to go. Going back and forth. Name some of these games from your memory. I'll start: Final Fantasy XIII-2, RE1

Back then on my GBA I got stuck in a Zelda Oracles dungeon for quite some time until I looked up what I was supposed to do. Turns out there was a hint, I had read it, but it was mistranslated and was garbled in my language.

It's supposed to tell you running makes you jump farther. Translated text doesn't mention jumping and instead sounds like a weird nonsensical idiom about "travelling far". Specifically travelling in the sense going on a trip, not just going from place A to place B.
