There are two varieties of Gohma in this game, red and blue. The red Gohma takes merely one arrow for victory while the blue one takes three.

[[File:FSA_Gohma.png|left]]In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]'', Gohma appears in two variations. The first type is a large, one-eyed arachnid that aimlessly wanders about the fields of Hyrule. The second type also appears as a large, one-eyed arachnid, but it acts as mini-boss that shoots fireballs at Link. Both types of Gohma could be harmed only by shooting arrows at its large open eye.

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', a more spider-like incarnation of Gohma appears, called '''Twilit Arachnid: Armogohma'''. Her name is a [[Wikipedia:portmanteau|portmanteau]] of "Armos", as in [[Armos|Armos Statue]], and Gohma. Like all previous incarnations, its eye is the weak spot.

Like some of its previous iterations, the dungeon in which Armogohma is featured includes many spiders and spider-like creatures as enemies; namely the slow moving four-legged [[Gohma Larva]]e and tiny, bloated [[Gohma Larva|Baby Gohma]]. Also similarly to its previous incarnations, Armogohma drops eggs whilst hanging from the ceiling at certain points during the boss battle. They quickly hatch into Baby Gohma, which Link must defeat before continuing with the main boss battle.
