Summary: EXELLENT GUIDE!!!
Comment: This is a pretty good guide. It shows accurate but confusing maps, how to find all of the heart pieces and items. It has a lot of typos though, and is an ok guide for beating the game. I myself haven't beaten the game yet, but I bought it in May 2002! Before I bought this guide I had the game for a couple of months and I didn't even know how to get to the first temple.
But this all changed on March 13, 2003 when I beat this game, All thanks to this strategy guide. I changed my rating from 4 stars to 5, and the title for my review from "pretty good guide" to exellent guide!!!" If you love this great N64 game and want to beat it You really have to get this guide. After I think about it, the maps aren't confusing at all, and there are hardly any typos.

Summary: Save your money
Comment: I'm not sure what guide the other reviewers were talking about but it couldn't have been this one. I got Zelda: Majora's Mask for X-Mas and quickly realized I'd need some outside help if I were to beat the game anytime soon. When I got Zelda: Ocarina of Time, I bought the Official Nintendo Strategy Guide and it was superb. But this Bradygames guide for Majora's Mask is cheaper than Nintendo's so I bought it sight unseen from Amazon thinking it'd be good enough. In all fairness I suppose it is 'just good enough'. Here are the problems with it:
1) A _ton_ of typos and outright mis-labeling. Typos are a big deal when you're in a dungeon and the guide says to go to a certain room and about 2 hrs later you figure out that they'd made a mistake. 2) They made the maps in this guide with some sort of 3D program that is supposed to be a copy of the real game. The problem is these fancy 3D maps distort the actual areas. Good luck finding a hidden hole in the game when the guide's map says that the hole is in a completely different place than where it really is. 3) There are 2 Gold Skulltula Houses in the game that each have 30 spiders hidden within. This guide does an absolutely _horrible_ job showing you where they are. It basically just says, 'There are 5 Spiders in this room' and leaves you on your own to find them. 4) If you don't know already, Majora's Mask has a 3 day time period that you keep replaying by going back in time. You keep Masks/Weapons you earn when you go back in time but everything else reverts. For example: After you beat a dungeon the land in that area goes back to normal (poisonous waters are cleaned, snows melt, etc) and that allows you to enter new places in that area to get Heart Pieces or whatever. If you don't get those items before you go back in time you can't get to them unless you go back to the Dungeon that you've already beaten and fight the boss again. Kinda a pain. Now here's the problem: After beating a Dungeon, this guide doesn't tell you what new things you can now get in that area. Very frustrating.
About the only thing this Guide does well is tell you where and how to get the 15 Fairies in each Dungeon. Of course this Guide does list where all the Masks and Heart Pieces are but you can find a similar list on about a hundred websites for free.
I'd recommend that you either find a walkthrough on the Internet (there are a ton of them) or get the Official Nintendo Guide (I flipped through one at a local store after I'd already bought this one and it's alot better but costs about ...).

Summary: THE WORST GUIDE EVER!
Comment: I hated this guide. It is misleading, the maps stink even though the 3-D looks cool. I had to buy another guide. The only good part about this guide was the appendixes. But this guide frustrated and confused me so much I thought this game was impossible to beat! DO NOT BUY THIS GUIDE!
