Effective Weapons	Sword Shield Spell

Horsehead is the first Boss in The Adventure of Link. It is the boss of the Dungeon known as Parapa Palace. Horsehead is a warrior with a horse's head, hence the name. It can be defeated by jumping up and slashing at its unprotected head. Link must watch out, because if Horsehead gets too close, it hits Link with its mace attack. At this point in the game, it is recommended that Link uses the Shield Spell just in case. Horsehead takes some practice at first, but the strategy becomes easy afterwards.
