{{Plural|ALttP|Hinox}} are found in the [[Dark World]] of [[Hyrule]] in {{ALttP}}. They are common to most locations, particularly near the [[Bomb Shop]], and have a seemingly endless supply of {{Plural|ALttP|Bomb|link}} to throw at {{Term|ALttP|Link|link}}. They are very powerful and are able to cause a lot of damage to {{Term|ALttP|Link}} if they come into contact with him. Despite their slow movements, they are extremely dangerous to {{Term|ALttP|Link}} when he first enters the Dark World and should be treated with caution. Striking them with a {{Term|ALttP|Sword|link}} will defeat them, but it takes many hits and puts {{Term|ALttP|Link}} in danger, so it is easier for {{Term|ALttP|Link}} to throw his own {{Plural|ALttP|Bomb}} at them or strike them with his {{Term|ALttP|Bow|link}} from afar.

Despite what the English game manual suggests, a {{Term|ALttP|Hinox}}'s weak point is not usually its eye, unlike similar monsters with a prominent single eye, nor are they weak to their own {{Plural|ALttP|Bomb}}; these are mistranslations of the original Japanese manual, which stated the phrase "{{Romanize|目には目を|Me ni wa Me o}}",<ref>{{Cite manual|quote={{exp|闇の世界の地上をうろつく怪カモンスターです。体力があるうえ、 爆弾も放う投げてきます。弱点は「目には目を…」です。|Mysterious monsters prowl the earth in the World of Darkness.

{{Plural|FSA|Hinox}} appear in large numbers in the [[Death Mountain Foothills]] of [[Hyrule]] in {{FSA}}. They behave similarly to their previous incarnations but instead attack by throwing [[Boulder]]s. They will also attack by attempting to grab one of the {{Term|FSA|Links|link}}. If grabbed by one, it shakes the {{Term|FSA|Link}} and makes him drop his [[Force Gem]]s. Despite their lack of explosives, they are still weak to {{Plural|FSA|Bomb|link}}, so it is recommended that the {{Term|FSA|Links}} find nearby [[Bomb Flower]]s to destroy them with. At some point in the Death Mountain Foothills, a [[Quake Medallion]] can also be found in a nearby cave, which can be used to turn them into weak [[Blue Zol|Zol]]s.

{{Plural|TFH|Hinox}} appear in {{TFH}}. They typically appear as strong, uncommon enemies that are usually encountered as "mini-bosses" in certain Levels. They first appear in [[Blazing Trail]], where the {{Term|TFH|Links|link}} fight a group of them along with [[Fire Keese]] on an island surrounded by fire spouts. They later appear in the second Stage of the [[Fire Temple (Tri Force Heroes)|Fire Temple]]. One appears riding a {{Term|TFH|Mine Cart|link}} and throws {{Plural|TFH|Bomb|link}} at the {{Term|TFH|Links}}. The {{Term|TFH|Links}} must fight it by picking up its {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} and throwing them back into its {{Term|TFH|Mine Cart}}. Alternately, the {{Term|TFH|Links}} can also use Bomb Flowers growing nearby as well. After it is defeated, two more appear and must be defeated using the same method. {{Plural|TFH|Hinox}} also appear in the final Stage of [[The Lady's Lair]].

Three unique {{Plural|TFH|Hinox}}, the [[Hinox Brothers]], appear as the mini-bosses of [[Hinox Mine]] and [[Bomb Storage]]. Two are fought in Hinox Mine, though initially the {{Term|TFH|Links}} face one. The {{Term|TFH|Links}} fight them on moving {{Plural|TFH|Mine Cart}}, and must throw their {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} into their {{Plural|TFH|Mine Cart|display=Carts}}. In Bomb Storage, the {{Term|TFH|Links}} first fight two of the brothers, and use the [[Gust Jar]] to propel their {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} into their balconies. After the pair is defeated, the {{Term|TFH|Links}} then face the third brother, who throws much bigger {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} while summoning [[Hardhat Beetle]]s. As these {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} are too heavy to use the Gust Jar on, one {{Term|TFH|Links|display=Link}} must supply the other two with smaller {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} to continue the strategy.

In {{Term|TFH|Hinox Mine}}, the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} and one of the {{Plural|TFH|Hinox Brothers}} do battle while riding on parallel {{Plural|TFH|Mine Cart}}, where the {{Plural|TFH|Links}} must return the {{Plural|TFH|Bomb}} thrown by the {{Plural|TFH|Hinox}}.

{{Plural|BotW|Hinox}} appear as bosses found in different locations across {{Term|BotW|Hyrule|link}} in {{BotW}} and Hyrule Warriors:Age of Calamity, typically in a clearing, asleep. In this game, {{Plural|BotW|Hinox}} are found in red, blue, and black varieties, depending on strength. They are depicted as giant {{Term|BotW|Bokoblin|link}}-like creatures with a single eye in their forehead, wearing a necklace strung with several pieces of equipment as decoration (and in some cases, orbs needed to open nearby Shrines); if Link sneaks up on them, he can steal the equipment from the necklace without being detected. They are the largest enemy to be found in the overworld. They spend most of their time sleeping, only engaging {{Term|BotW|Link|link}} when woken. Once awake, they will use physical attacks such as swipes and punches and pull up nearby {{Plural|BotW|Tree|link}} in order to toss them at {{Term|BotW|Link}}. If the hero climbs out of their reach, the lesser variants will throw small boulders at him, while {{Plural|BotW|Black Hinox}} use {{Plural|BotW|Bomb Barrel|link}}. Shooting an {{Term|BotW|Arrow|link}} at the eye will result in the monster being stunned and open to attacks until it recovers. After their health drops to half, they will cover their eye to block further {{Term|BotW|Arrow}} shots, however, there are still chances to hit it during some of their animations or by shooting while falling. Once defeated, they will drop {{Plural|BotW|Weapon|link}} (if they were not already stolen from their necklaces beforehand), {{plural|BotW|Hinox Toenail}}, {{plural|BotW|Hinox Tooth}}, and {{plural|BotW|Hinox Guts}}. In addition, they will drop some variety of {{term|BotW|food}}: reds drop fruits, blues drop fish, and blacks drop meat.

Blue and Blaxk Hinoxes wear crude greaves made from wood and metal (respectively) around their ankles to protect them from attack. However, this armor can be used against them with the correct elemental attacks- the wood armor can be set on fire to make them panic until it burns away, and the metal armor conducts electricity and will subsequently stun them if hit by lightning-based attacks.

A {{Term|ALttP|Hinox}} is last seen inside the [[Swamp Palace (A Link to the Past)|Swamp Palace]], where the foe, along with a [[Taros]], shuts the entrance to the rest of the palace and impedes {{Term|ALttP|Link}} from rescuing the [[Maiden]] inside. As [[Sahasrahla's Grandson]] watches the battle between {{Term|ALttP|Link}} and the Taros from a fountain in the [[Light World]], he accidentally activates the statues that cause water to pour into the fountain. This leads to the Swamp Palace in the Dark World to become flooded, washing away both the Taros and the {{Term|ALttP|Hinox}}, who eventually end up sinking as they struggle with each other.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=GLUB!

Hinoxes make an appearance in the Four Swords manga, partying with [[Shadow Link]] and a seemingly traitorous Purple, while the former tells him about Ganon, saying that [[Vaati]] is not the only one who wants darkness to reign supreme in Hyrule. When Purple is revealed to have faked friendship with him for information, Shadow Link orders the Hinoxes to throw him into the lava, saying he has betrayed him.

Hinoxes reappear in {{HWAoC}}, first appearing in [[The Yiga Clan Attacks!]] [[Scenario]] as part of a trap [[Sooga]] devised for the Champions while he tried to assassinate [[Princess Zelda|Zelda]]. Similar to {{BotW|-}}, they attack by slamming down their fists, using a tree trunk for additional attacking, throwing a metal crate, and/or bellyflopping enemies, the latter three of which can be countered with the [[Stasis]], [[Magnesis]], and [[Cryonis]] Runes. In addition to the Blue Hinoxes, Black Hinoxes, and Stalnoxes reappearing in the game, new variants are introduced in the game, being the [[Fire Hinox]], [[Ice Hinox]], [[Electric Hinox]], and the [[Malice Hinox]].

*As well as being based on the mythical Cyclops, {{Term|Series|Hinox}} also share similarities with Japanese {{Wp|Oni (folklore)|Oni}}. Their loincloths and upturned fangs in particular are similar to the traditional appearance of an Oni, and the red and blue colored {{Term|LADX|Hinox}} in {{LA|-}} may be a reference to the tradition of a red and blue Oni pair.
