The term "Minish" refers to a fictional race of tiny beings in the Legend of Zelda video game series. They are known for their small stature, typically only a few inches tall, and their ability to manipulate the world around them. The Minish are often depicted as friendly and helpful, assisting the main character, Link, on his adventures. In the game The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, players encounter the Minish as they explore the land of Hyrule. The Minish have a unique ability to shrink Link down to their size, allowing him to access areas that are otherwise unreachable. This gameplay mechanic adds a layer of creativity and exploration to the game.
