Glutko (Boss)

Glutko the Cyclops (pronounced ) is a large, green mound boss with a single eye in Link: The Faces of Evil. After defeating Glutko, Link retrieves the Book of Koridai.

The Gluttonous Cyclops Glutko consumes Koridians with no remorse; his name having been derived from gluttony, or large hunger. This mirrors his manners, and he guards the Shrine of Koridai. He is first encountered in the interior of what comprises the nose and eyes of his statue, but Link kills him by making him swallow a Bomb, at the advice of the Beer Guy. Shortly afterwards, he is fought again at the shrine of Koradai, but is defeated again in the same way.

Trivia

 * The place where Glutko is introduced by Gwonam is in a lava cavern in his dungeon, that fills 4 screens, and Gwonam is located very far from the cave entrance. An interesting find is that in Link: The Faces of Evil backcover includes the story and four screens from the game. One of the four screenshots shows one frame from the cutscene where Glutko is introduced, but with the cave entrance as background. This suggests Gwonam was located in the cave entrance in the game prototype.
