Hinox is an enemy appearing in two Zelda titles; A Link to the Past and Link's Awakening.
Appearances
A Link to the Past
Hinox are one of the first enemies that Link encounters when entering the Dark World in A Link to the Past. First found near the Pyramid of Power, these one-eyed monsters have the ability to toss Bombs.
Hinox will move around rather slowly, but if they make eye contact with Link, they will charge in his direction. Even when the Hinox is charging, it doesn't move too quickly, so Link will have some time to react. While the Hinox will toss Bombs out randomly, if Link strikes the Hinox with his Master Sword, the Hinox will immediately turn in his direction and toss a Bomb.
These massive enemies are quite durable and will take a number of strikes to defeat. Link will need five direct swipes from the Master Sword to defeat them. Link can use its own power against them, defeating them with a single bomb strike. One might think arrows would work against these one-eyed creatures, but Hinox will need five direct strikes from the Bow and Arrow before he goes down.
The bombs that Hinox throw at Link will only do one heart of damage. However, if Link makes physical contact with the Hinox, three hearts of damage will be done to Link.
Link's Awakening
Hinox makes an appearance in Link's Awakening, as the Mini-Boss of the second dungeon, Bottle Grotto. This version of Hinox is almost the same as the A Link to the Past version as far as attack style and visual appearance, although he may seem a little larger in Link's Awakening.
