Bongo Bongo

Bongo Bongo is a mysterious cyclopean creature with two large disembodied hands. Sealed deep in the darkness of the Kakariko Village well, it is unknown the true nature and origin of the beast. (Though it is implied that Ganondorf was involved with it). Once Ganondorf came to power, the beast was able to escape it's prison within the well and retreat to guard the Shadow Temple, where Impa goes to try to seal it again.

Powers and Abilities
Bongo Bongo is by far the weirdest boss yet to appear in a Zelda game. Such attributes that contribute to its oddity is that it has the power to become invisible, and sink and travel across surfaces, which manifests as a mysterious dark energy. Despite its hands being cut off, it still has full control over them from a distance, allowing him to punch, slap, grab and squeeze the life out of its victims. It also can shield its susceptible red eye by folding the laps over it.

Oddly enough, when Link encounters Bongo Bongo, the battle occurs on a giant drum surrounded by a violently electric force field. (You definitely want to avoid this). Not only does it beat on it, but it sings throughout the battle with a strange voice much like the four giants in Termina.

If you play the game normally, it is the next-to-last Temple boss to cross your path.

To defeat this beast, equip the Lens of Truth when it becomes invisible, in order to see it and avoid its hands when they attempt to attack you. Stun its hands with arrows to force it to reveal its giant eye protected by the flaps. Aim and shoot the eye with another arrow before Bongo Bongo tries to ram into you, then hack the eye with your sword. (This happens to be a lot of fun.) Once you repeat this process enough times, this evil will be no more.

Special: The ice arrow will also freeze a hand if hit.

A tip while facing Bongo Bongo, use your Hover Boots that you recieved from this temple to avoid being bonked back and forth from the drum.
