[[File:Hinox-Sprite-1.png|left]]Hinox are one of the first enemies that [[Link (A Link to the Past)|Link]] encounters when entering the [[Dark World]].

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 does not 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 the [[Master Sword]], the Hinox will immediately turn in his direction and toss a bomb. | Hinox will move around rather slowly, but if they make eye contact with Link, they will charge in his direction.

Hinox makes an appearance in ''Link's Awakening'' as the mini-boss of the second dungeon, [[Bottle Grotto]]. Later, a red and [[Blue Hinox]] appear as the mini-boss of [[Eagle's Tower]] and [[Turtle Rock (Link's Awakening)|Turtle Rock]]. However, the behavior and strength of these two Hinox are the same as the first Hinox encountered in Bottle Grotto. | Hinox makes an appearance in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'' as the mini-boss of the second dungeon, [[Bottle Grotto]].

However, the behavior and strength of these two Hinox are the same as the first Hinox encountered in Bottle Grotto. | ||
The Hinox is more difficult than its ''A Link to the Past'' counterpart due to Link having to face it in a room instead of open space. It walks around the room slowly, and it occasionally charges and dashes toward Link. If Hinox gets close enough to Link, it will grab him and toss Link to the side. Every time Link damages the Hinox, it retaliates by throwing a bomb. Link can defeat it by using his sword to hit the Hinox. Alternatively, Hinox has a natural weakness to Bombs, of which Link can defeat him with two bomb attacks. Later in the quest, [[Bomb Arrow]]s, the [[Boomerang]], or the [[Magic Rod (Link's Awakening)|Magic Rod]] make it much easier to defeat these monsters. | The Hinox is more difficult than its ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' counterpart due to Link having to face it in a room instead of open space.

In ''Four Swords Adventures'', the Hinox appear on [[Death Mountain Foothills]] as one-eyed ogres. They throw [[Boulder]]s and shake [[Force Gem]]s out of [[Link (Four Swords Adventures)|Link]]. There are a total of 23 Hinox, 20 of which can be defeated by entering a nearby cave obtaining the [[Quake Medallion]] and throwing it on them. The Hinox later appears in the [[Palace of Winds (Four Swords Adventures)|Palace of Winds]]. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', the Hinox appear on [[Death Mountain Foothills]] as one-eyed ogres.

In ''Phantom Hourglass'', a similar enemy known as an Eye Brute appears on [[Dee Ess Island]] and [[Goron Temple]].

==''A Link Between Worlds''== | ==''A Link Between Worlds''== | ||
The Hinox in ''A Link Between Worlds'' are a lot like the Hinox in ''A Link to the Past''. There is also a snow variant of the Hinox that are found only in the Lorule Death Mountain and throw snowballs at [[Link (A Link Between Worlds)|Link]]. There is also a Hinox in a secret cave, called the [[Cowardly Hinox]], who will give Link Rupees. However, if Link asks for more Rupees too many times, the cowardly Hinox will attack Link and cannot be defeated. The only way to escape is to run out of the cave. | The Hinox in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]'' are a lot like the Hinox in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''.

==''Tri Force Heroes''== | ==''Tri Force Heroes''== | ||
In ''Tri Force Heroes'', the Hinox appear similar to how they appear in ''A Link Between Worlds''. They appear in Stage 4 of the level [[Hinox Mine]], and are the main challenge of this level. Unlike in ''A Link Between Worlds'', they wear helmets that resemble bombs. They ride on mine carts and will throw bombs at the three Links. In order to defeat them, they either have to be shot with a bow, or the Links will have to throw the bombs back at the Hinox. | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes|Tri Force Heroes]]'', the Hinox appear similar to how they appear in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''.

The Hinox in ''Breath of the Wild'' are mini-bosses that are sprinkled around the world of Hyrule, of which there are forty of them in total. They are usually found sleeping and can be awakened with attacks or loud noise. Like [[Bokoblin]]s and [[Moblin]]s, they're pig-like creatures. They use their large size and fists to hurt [[Link (Breath of the Wild)|Link]]. If Link gets close enough, they will try to punish him by stomping the ground below them. Often they use their environment to their advantage, which can include them uprooting nearby trees and attempting to flatten Link with them. However, they are fairly slow enemies and their moves can be telegraphed quite easily. | The Hinox in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild|Breath of the Wild]]'' are mini-bosses that are sprinkled around the world of Hyrule, of which there are forty of them in total.

Hinox may wear wooden or metallic shin guards, and the former can be set on fire. They may wear one or two shin guards, but never two of the same material. The shin guards prevent Link from striking its legs when it's standing, so it's recommended to either burn the wooden ones, or strike the Hinox once it's sitting down on the floor. They may sport melee weapons of many types that they wear as jewelry (often a sword + spear + two-handed weapon), though some Hinox may also wear [[Ancient Orb]]s as well in the same fashion. | Hinox may wear wooden or metallic shin guards, and the former can be set on fire.

In ''[[Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity|Age of Calamity]]'', the Hinox first appears as one of the bosses during [[The Yiga Clan Attacks!]] scenario. It has an identical appearance as its ''Breath of the Wild'' counterpart. It will attack nearby warriors by smashing its massive hands on the ground, as well as occasionally leaping in the air and trying to squash its adversaries. The Hinox will also roll on the ground towards any nearby warriors. | In ''[[Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity|Age of Calamity]]'', the Hinox first appears as one of the bosses during [[The Yiga Clan Attacks!]] scenario.

When defeated, a Hinox may drop a Hinox Toenail or a Hinox Tooth. Additionally, the player will receive a [[Hinox Trophy]] each time one of these bosses are defeated. These can be used to complete [[Age of Calamity Quests|quests]] or upgrade weapons of the various warriors. Stronger variants and elemental variants of Hinox also appear throughout ''Age of Calamity'', including [[Blue Hinox]], [[Black Hinox]], [[Electric Hinox]], [[Fire Hinox]], [[Ice Hinox]], [[Malice Hinox]], and [[Stalnox]]. The stronger variants appear in later scenarios, with the elemental variants appearing in levels corresponding to their elements. | When defeated, a Hinox may drop a Hinox Toenail or a Hinox Tooth.
