Wanderin' Gooms[1] are small oval-shaped creatures that appear in Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3. They have no arms, are not aggressive, and have no ability to attack. Wanderin' Gooms are considered "apprentice pirates."[2]

Similar harmless enemies such as Marumen and red Bandineros appear in other games of the Wario Land series.

History

Wario Land: Super Mario Land 3

Wanderin' Gooms walk straight ahead, changing direction when they encounter a wall. However, upon coming into contact with any object, they flip on their back. Although considered enemies in the game's manual, these creatures are extremely weak and are completely harmless. Wario can defeat these defenseless creatures any way he sees fit, including using them as weapons by throwing them at other enemies, and they yield a coin as a result. Pirate Gooms are weapon-wielding Wanderin' Gooms that cannot be attacked from the front.

Wanderin' Gooms have unused sprites spitting a projectile, but they do not attack in the final game.

Game & Watch Gallery 2

A single Wanderin' Goom appears in Game & Watch Gallery 2 as one of the objects Wario has to juggle in the Modern version of Ball.
