Rolling Bones is a mini-boss from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It is encountered before fighting Moldorm in Tail Cave. To defeat it, Link must use the Roc's Feather to leap over a spiked bar that it rolls back and forth. Link can slash Rolling Bones with his sword after it has past. Once defeated, it leaves a fairy and opens a portal back to the entrance. The path to Moldorm, the dungeon's boss, is also opened.
Rolling Bones re-appears later in Turtle Rock, along with the mini-bosses from the other dungeons. The boomerang obtained as a reward from the "Quest for the Magnifying Lens" is a more effective weapon to use for this rematch, finishing Rolling Bones in a single attack.
