Zelda Player Traps Ganondorf in Hamster Wheel in Creative Game Exploit

In the ongoing conversation between game designers and the players who inhabit their worlds, a small but telling moment emerged from Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom — a player discovered how to trap the final boss, Ganondorf, inside a hamster wheel. The exploit is less a glitch than a revelation: that the game's physics engine was built with enough openness to allow the world's own logic to be turned against its greatest villain. It speaks to a design philosophy that trusts players to find meaning, mischief, and mastery in the space between intention and possibility.
