Thwomps are small stone blocks which appear as obstacles in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons. Despite being named Thwomp, they are the same enemy as Thwimps from the Super Mario series, according to their Japanese name.

They act similar to Thwomps of the 2D Super Mario games, waiting for Link to approach and then slamming the ground when he gets close. Their role is the same between The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, and they are found only in sidescrolling passages of the Face Shrine and Snake's Remains dungeons of the respective games. Thwomps are cycloptic, like the Spiked Thwomp, but have spikes like the Thwomps of the Mario franchise.

Link cannot defeat Thwomps, although he can avoid them by using the Pegasus Boots (or a Pegasus Seed in The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons) to run underneath them, or goad them into dropping and passing under while they rise back up. In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX and the Switch remake, they are blue while hanging in the air, but turn angry and red when attacking.

In The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures, the Thwomps directly resemble Mega Thwomp, but they act the same as small Thwomps.
