In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'', [[Swoop]] (ウインギー, ''Wingy'') is the miniboss of Level 2, the [[Wing Dungeon]]. It looks like a red devil and flies around, swooping down and punching holes in the floor (hence the name). Defeat it with the sword when it goes near the ground. The best way to defeat Swoop is to lure him over to the blue tile that borders the room. These tiles are far stronger then the yellow tiles in the center of the room. Be warned though as Swoop nears defeat he will start to bounce more when he lands.
