20 Simple Game Exploits That Make You OP
20. Superswim - Wind Waker
The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker is one of the best titles in the series in terms of exploration. The feeling you get from traversing its vast world on your very own boat is something that not even Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have managed to accomplish.
Still, sometimes you’d rather progress the game than appreciate the slow sailing across the seas. If that’s the case, there is one trick that will let you zoom past the map in an instant.
Superswim is a speedrunning strategy that allows Link to rapidly bounce across any body of water like a skipping stone on steroids.
The trick is incredibly easy to pull off. First, climb a small ledge, and then activate the Wind Waker just as you're about to fall off. This will cause the game to think you've canceled a cutscene twice and allow you to activate a glitch that will enable you to perform the Superswim.
Afterward, all you have to do is hold Lock-on, jump into any body of water, and then cancel out Lock-on while holding up the analog stick. This will rapidly accelerate Link's movement as he is spinning in place, and once you let go of the stick, he will be catapulted away, skipping across huge chunks of map in seconds.
The trick will turn you into the fastest thing in the sea, reaching any location on the map with the speed your boat could only dream of.
