Blocks of Time are a type of obstacle.
Characteristics[]
Blocks of Time react when the Song of Time is played in certain locations. Visible blocks may vanish to allow access to chests or other locations, while non-visible blocks may appear to form platforms towards hard-to-reach areas.
While some can be reached using the Roc's Cape, Hover Boots, or Whirlwind Sprint, other areas can only be accessed using Blocks of Time.

Background and Inspiration[]

In version 6.6.0, the blocks were given a unique sound that plays when activated.
