A Gohma makes its first appearance in {{TLoZ}}. Its hard shell will repel all attacks, but its single eye is vulnerable to [[Arrow]]s shot with the [[Bow]].<ref>{{Cite Manual|quote= The super-huge crab that lives in the labyrinths. Its hard shell will repulse any attack. Attack its weak point with a special weapon.|game= TLoZ|page= 38}}</ref> Due to this weakness, Gohma frequently keeps its eye closed, and attacks by shooting beams from a distance. There are two varieties of Gohma in this game, those being red and blue; the red Gohma can be killed by a single [[Arrow]] from the [[Bow]], while the blue one takes three Arrows to kill.

Gohma also appears in {{BSTLoZ}}. A brown Gohma first appears as the boss of [[Level-6 (BS The Legend of Zelda)|Level-6]], and can be taken out if it is shot in the eye with a single Arrow. Two blue Gohmas also appear in [[Level-8 (BS The Legend of Zelda)|Level-8]] as a double mini-boss battle. They are much more resilient, and will take three Arrows in each eye, or two Silver Arrows before their defeat.

A single Gohma appears in the story of ''[[To the First Power]]'' from {{TLoZ|Valiant Comics}}. When Zelda enters {{Term|TLoZ|Level 1|link}} to train against Ganon's minions, a [[Gohma]] appears behind her.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=If Link thinks I'm going to give up and call him to rescue me at the first sign of danger, he's in for a surprise!

Zelda manages to escape the Gohma's grasp and eventually finds the labyrinth's item: the [[Zelda's Bow|Magic Bow]]. This allows the princess to defeat the Gohma with a single shot and make her way into the final chamber of the maze.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote=Nice shot, Zelda!

In {{TCT}}, [[Princess Zelda]] encounters a Gohma as she's traveling through the [[Desert (The Crystal Trap)|Desert]] and accidentally steps on a hollow surface, which houses the creature. According to the book, Gohmas are known to be clumsy creatures, but once something or someone steps on their territory, they will never give up. The princess, knowing this, begins to circle around the Gohma, which eventually causes for it to fall on its back due to its dizziness. Noticing a faint white spot on its belly, Zelda fires an [[Arrow]] from [[Zelda's Bow|her Bow]] to quickly defeat the monster.

In the {{OoT|Himekawa}}, Gohma can talk, and her true form was a mere scarab, apparently transformed from dark magic. She is first seen attacking, entering, and eating the [[Great Deku Tree]]. She was originally sent by [[Ganon]] to obtain the [[Kokiri's Emerald]] until she is defeated by [[Link]] and [[Mido]].
