In order to enter a pipe, the player must throw eggs at the Gobblin, which it proceeds to eat, growing bigger with every egg. After being fed five eggs, the Gobblin starts to look full with "X" eyes, at which point only one more egg is needed to make it explode. In the [[Island Museum]], these creatures appear in the Subterranean Enemy Exhibit, and are one of the few defeatable enemies in the museum. | In order to enter a pipe, the player must throw eggs at the Gobblin, which it proceeds to eat, growing bigger with every egg.
