Geldmen are recurring enemies in The Legend of Zelda series.

A Link to the Past

Geldmen exclusively appear in the Desert of Mystery, located just outside the Desert Palace. They are sand creatures that will pop up from underground and rapidly move towards Link. With their long arms, they cover a lot of ground and are worthy enemies.

Geldmen are often accompanied by the Vulture, as well as the environmental threat of Land Mines and Cacti. Alone they are not much of a threat, but when there are multiple enemies on screen at once, they can be difficult to avoid.

After burrowing back underground, Geldmen will reset themselves and will come back up from their initial locations. Any damage that is done to Geldmen will be retained even after they burrow underground. They will take four slashes with the Fighter's Sword to defeat. Alternatively, Link can hit them four times with the Boomerang to do them in. Later on as Link acquires more powerful weapons, a wide variety of them can be used to defeat Geldmen.

A Link Between Worlds

Geldmen appear exclusively in the Desert region of southwestern Hyrule, located just outside the Desert Palace. These enemies will pop up from under the sand and quickly move towards Link. The Sand Rod can be used to bring a Geldman out of the sand, revealing the lower half of its body. Embarrassed or slightly out of place, the enemy will then erratically run around the desert. At this point, Link can then defeat it with the Master Sword.
