'''Lowders'''<ref>''Zelda II: The Adventure of Link'' instruction booklet, page 27.</ref> are short, slithering beetle enemies that more closely resemble pill bugs or horseshoe crabs due to their shape and number of legs. Their name may be a play on the word "low," befitting their height and ground-based movements.

In ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link]]'', Lowders are common, weak enemies that appear in a variety of locations, most often in caves. They normally walk slowly back-and-forth along the ground, but if they see [[Link]], they will charge at him at a noticeably faster speed, sometimes turning around to do so. Due to their height, they can only be effectively attacked by [[crouch|kneeling]] or with a [[Down Thrust|Downward Thrust]].
