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]] make it much easier to defeat these monsters.

Hinox in ''Tears of the Kingdom'' retain their mini-bosses appearances from ''Breath of the Wild''. 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#Tears of the Kingdom|Link]]. If Link gets close enough, they will try stomp the ground below to attack him. 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. Hinox can be stunned by attacking their eye.
