{{Quote|Mystic Crystal Switches<br/>Blue and gold Crystal Switches were found in several Hyrulian palaces, and the Tower of Hera was no exception. The beautiful switches were the key to raising and lowering the blue and orange Switch Fences that popped up in places. No one knew exactly how they worked, but when people struck a Blue Crystal Switch, all of the blue Switch Fences fell and the gold ones rose; when they struck a gold switch, the gold Switch Fences fell and the blue ones rose.|''[[A Link to the Past Nintendo Player's Guide]]''}} | {{Quote|Mystic Crystal Switches<br/>Blue and gold Crystal Switches were found in several Hyrulian palaces, and the Tower of Hera was no exception.

The Crystal Switch makes its debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. These switches are similar in appearance to a crystal ball. Crystal Switches control how the color-matched block obstacles in the dungeon floors move. When it is red, the red blocks fall down and a pathway is revealed. When it turns blue, the blue blocks fall into square holes in the floor. This allows Link to walk forward across them. | The Crystal Switch makes its debut in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''.

The Crystal Switches in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'' are identical to those in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. Some puzzles require Link to stand on the pillars controlled by the switches to raise him up, allowing him to reach higher platforms. | The Crystal Switches in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'' are identical to those in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''.
