{{TLoZManual|Bomb|Set one of these, and Link can overpower the enemy with the explosive blast.}}

{{Plural|TLoZ|Bomb}} first appear in {{TLoZ}} and can be used to damage certain enemies or reveal hidden passageways in walls within {{Plural|TLoZ|Dungeon|link}} and the {{Term|TLoZ|Overworld|link}}.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= Set one of these, and Link can overpower the enemy with the explosive blast.|game= TLoZ|page= 24}}</ref> These passageways often create shortcuts in {{Plural|TLoZ|Dungeon}} and lead to {{Plural|TLoZ|Cave|link}} in the {{Term|TLoZ|Overworld}} that contain {{Plural|TLoZ|Shop}} or {{Plural|TLoZ|Old Man|link}}. When used, {{Plural|TLoZ|Bomb}} are placed directly in front of {{Term|TLoZ|Link|link}} and explode shortly after. {{Plural|TLoZ|Bomb}} can only be obtained in bundles of four by purchasing them in a {{Term|TLoZ|Shop}} for 20 {{Plural|TLoZ|Rupee|link}} or by defeating enemies.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= For each bomb he picks up, he gets four bombs.|game= TLoZ|page= 24}}</ref> The only enemies that drop {{Plural|TLoZ|Bomb}} when defeated are blue {{Plural|TLoZ|Octorok|link}}, blue {{Plural|TLoZ|Moblin|link}}, red {{Plural|TLoZ|Goriya|link}}, red {{Plural|TLoZ|Darknut|link}}, {{Plural|TLoZ|Vire|link}}, {{Plural|TLoZ|Gibdo|link}}, red {{Plural|TLoZ|Wizzrobe|link}}, and blue {{Plural|TLoZ|Lynel|link}}.

Finally an obscure message from the [[Old Man]] in [[Death Mountain]]: "10TH ENEMY HAS THE BOMB" hints to a mechanic where defeating 9 enemies and destroying the 10th with a bomb, all without getting hit, would yield more bombs.

{{Term|TLoZ|Link}} can hold up to eight {{Plural|TLoZ|Bomb}} at the start of the game,<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= Link can carry at most eight bombs. At the beginning of the game, he can't have any more than this number.

Each upgrade costs 100 {{Plural|TLoZ|Rupee}}.

Please buy 'em, mister!|Bomb Shopkeeper|ALttP}}</ref> Bombs can be used to damage certain enemies or destroy loose rocks, cracked floors, or crumbling walls within Dungeons and the Overworld.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= He can also ignite bombs near crumbling walls and loose rocks to reveal secret passages.|book= A Link to the Past & Four Swords official guide|publisher= Nintendo Power|page= 8}}</ref> When Link uses a Bomb, it is placed in a short distance in front of him and detonates soon after. However, Link can also pick the Bomb up and throw it before it detonates.<ref>{{Cite|You got some Bombs! You can pick up and throw a Bomb you placed (Press the A Button)!|N/A|ALttP}}</ref> This allows Link to activate Switches from afar. Bombs are an effective item for defeating [[Hinox]]es, who throw Bombs when Link is nearby, allowing Link to throw their Bombs back at them without using his own Bombs.<ref>{{Cite|Wow! I haven't seen a normal person in a few hundred years! Let me talk to you for a while. I heard that using Bombs is the best way to defeat the one-eyed giants. That's all I know!|Talking Timber|ALttP}}</ref> [[Bomb Soldier]]s also attack Link by throwing Bombs at him. Link can destroy the [[Helmasaur King]]'s mask with Five Bombs instead of the [[Magic Hammer]]. [[Talking Timber]]s will shoot a Bomb out of their mouth if Link touches their face.<ref>{{Cite|Quit bothering me! And watch where you're going when you dash around!|Talking Timber|ALttP}}</ref> If Link gets hurt by a Bomb, including his own Bombs,<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= A bomb blast will damage enemies and knock holes in some walls, but it will also damage your character if he is too close to the blast.|game= ALttP|page= 37}}</ref> he will take one [[Heart]] of damage.

Link can then place the Bomb down or throw it. The Bomb will detonate after about four seconds, even if Link is still holding it.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= Bombs explode approximately four seconds after you pick them up.|game= OoT|page= 23}}</ref> Link can be hurt by his own Bombs.<ref>{{Cite manual|quote= Be careful not to get too close to the blast or you may get hurt.|game= OoT|page= 23}}</ref> Several large, yellow rocks can be found across the game which can be destroyed with Bombs.
