Shy Guys have an entirely unique behavior in the game. They behave similar to another enemy, [[Arm-Mimic]]s, and unlike them, Shy Guys wear a mask that protects them from [[Link]]'s frontal attacks. Shy Guys do not directly attack Link, and instead mimic his movements in reverse. If Link hits a Shy Guy, he loses half of a [[heart]] in health.

Link can defeat a Shy Guy from behind, though to do so using his [[Sword]], he must use a [[Spin Attack]]. Alternatively, Link can instantly defeat a Shy Guy with either the [[Boomerang]], the [[Magic Rod]], or by throwing a [[Bomb]] at it. He can also defeat a Shy Guy by firing two [[arrow]]s at it. Link can temporarily freeze a Shy Guy with the [[Hookshot|Hook Shot]].
