Eyerok, also known as the Hands[1] or Stone Hands,[2] is a boss introduced in Super Mario 64. He is a pair of two large stone hands with an eyeball on each palm, making him a golem-like entity. His name could be either a portmanteau of "eye" and "rock" or a pun on the phrase "I rock."
History[edit]
Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS[edit]
Eyerok is the boss of Shifting Sand Land. He resides in the center of the pyramid, inside a chamber. Eyerok attacks by either slamming his fists or trying to push Mario off the platform. Each fist acts separately. Only one exposes its eyeball at a time, making it vulnerable. A hit from Eyerok takes away three wedges of the Power Meter. Eyerok can be damaged from either punching, kicking, or diving into the eyeball on either palm. One of Eyerok's hands is destroyed after three hits, but destroying both is required for the Power Star of the mission Stand Tall on the Four Pillars.
Eyerok can be fought by any of the four player characters in Super Mario 64 DS, except Yoshi, unless he is wearing a cap, allowing him to destroy the Brick obstructing the entrance to Eyerok's chamber. If Yoshi were to fight Eyerok, he can attack by slide-kicking or ground-pounding into the eyes or by eating a flame from one of the small pillars and then breathing it into either of Eyerok's open eyes. For Wario, only two hits are necessary to destroy each hand.
