Boulder

Template:Enemy The boulder is an enemy found in a few Zelda games that usually falls from above onto Link to damage him.

Appearances

The Legend of Zelda

Boulder are found in the mountainous regions at the northern part of the Overworld Map.

Link's Awakening

These rocks can be found at the north-western part of Koholint Island, near the entrance to Turtle Rock. Boulders will fall from the top of the screen and bounce around the mountainous terrain. Avoiding these boulders is only challenging if you are trying to climb a staircase. There is no way to defeat a boulder. It may be fastest to let yourself get hit and continue on your way, instead of trying to dodge them. Luckily, boulders only do half a heart of damage, so you are not in danger of dying unless your hearts are very low.
