The Gerudo as a race/tribe have currently been featured in three games. However, the main villain of the [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|series]], [[Ganon|Ganondorf]], is a Gerudo and it is arguably correct to say they appeared in nearly every game.

Only in the game ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'' is the entire Gerudo tribe friendly.  In said game, their abode is located in the [[Desert of Doubt]].  Link's passage through Gerudo Village is initially halted by closed gates.  This is due to Ganondorf passing to try to claim the power of the sacred Pyramid for himself in direct violation of the Gerudo law code. However, they become friendly in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'' after Link rescues the Carpenters and earns respect from the Gerudo.
