Trolls are very weak enemies that appear early in the game and once again near the end of the game. They are among the few enemies that the player can't play as besides the large bosses. Trolls are known to ambush in high quantity, creating the only real danger from this enemy.



Appearance[]

The Trolls usually hide and spring out when the player passes. They appear as diminutive, black, fur covered balls of sticks.

Attacks[]

The Trolls are usually armed with Twigs. They also spawn off the Troll Mother during combat, as it is the Mother Troll's only means of protection from the player.

Trivia[]

  • In the demo, a troll is seen at the end. After getting to a certain point of the Barbarian Boss's life bar, the troll comes up out of the bottom of the screen and pulls a cord. Its eyes are seen in the dark and it closes them, ending the demo.
  • When Trolls are defeated, they collapse into a pile of hair, although when Red Knight electrocutes them, their skeletons are visible. The Troll Mother also leaves behind a skeleton when killed.
  • In the Thieves' Forest after defeating the Troll Mother, all trolls immediately die. However, when fighting the Troll Mother in the Marsh, the Trolls do not die immediately.
  • Trolls are the only regular enemy that doesn't carry a shield.
  • Trolls are the only regular enemy that can't be parried or shield slammed.
  • The Troll was originally going to be an unlockable character, but the production on the playable version was never started.[1]
  • Trolls and Fishmen are the weakest enemies to fire, which, at its max potential with pets and weapons, does 53 splash attack damage, 35 damage over time, and 105 projectile damage, and trolls will be knocked so high from the weakness-enhanced knockback that they'll at times fly higher than the top of the screen and take fall damage.
  • The heads of trolls can't be cut off, therefore it is possible to infinitely combo lock Trolls with the Ice XXXY combo.
  • The Troll is a star head skin in BattleBlock Theater.
  • According to Dan Paladin (the art director), Trolls are inspired by the trolls appearing in the movie "Willow"[2].

Bugs[]

  • At the end of the Thieves' Forest, after battling the Troll Mother, a couple of unmoving trolls may be left behind. To remedy this, simply hit them with the Boomerang.
