The Mole Monster spends most of the battle underground, generally only leaping upwards to attack you. Unlike the Whack-a-Monster, however, the Mole Monster often likes to home into your position from underground, as oppossed to popping up at predictable locations. The end result is that you often either have to force it out of the ground, or leap out of the way at the last second for a counterattack. May or may not come with Worm Sign. If they don't have a Worm Sign, they can easily develop into Goddamned Bats or even Demonic Spiders; in these cases, they will also overlap with Ambushing Enemy. Related to Sand Worm, although Mole Monsters are not necessarily giant worms (or giant monstrous moles, for that matter) |

World of Warcraft: Sand worms are centipede-like enemies that move swiftly underground and burst out only to attack players. They can only be tracked by bouncing rocks above them but can't actually be targeted until you enter within melee range of them, making them a headache for Glass Cannon casters. | |

Mutant Night: There are spherical, mechanical critters with chains for tails that pop up from underground to attack Mutron-kun. As they appear from literally out of nowhere, with no visual indicators of the direction they're popping from, it's best to keep on jumping when in any areas infested with this particular enemy type. | |

The Legend of Zelda: Leevers are recurring enemies that burrow around randomly, remaining invulnerable to attack as long as they're beneath the surface and only exposing themselves when they pop out to attack. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages: The Moonlit Grotto miniboss, Subterror, is a mole-like creature with a drill for a nose. It chases Link around its room while burrowing in the ground, leaving a small raised trail to mark its position, and attacks with its drill when it's directly under Link. It cannot be harmed while in this state, so Link must use the shovel to dig it up and expose it to attack. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Moldorms are wormlike creatures that live in the sand of the Gerudo Desert and in quicksand pits in the Arbiter's Grounds, where they move around beneath the surface and periodically jump out to attack Link. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword: The Lanayru Mining Facility boss Moldarach will burrow beneath the sand of its arena after its claws are damaged, striking at Link with its stinger from beneath the surface. In order to defeat it, Link must use the dungeon's item to remove sand and expose the beast. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: Moldugas are giant monsters that live in the desert and tunnel underneath you before leaping jaw first out of the sand. Fortunately, they navigate by sound and can't tell the difference between footsteps and a bomb being thrown. |

Mini Robot Wars: The Driller enemies tunnel underground, making them immune to most attacks. They only surface when they encounter a Minirobot to attack, or if they're affected by the Radar. However, certain attacks (particularly bombs from the Dropper Bot) can damage them even if they're underground. The Mole enemies also tunnel underground, making them immune to most attacks. Unlike the Driller, they also count as a Stealthy Mook, attacking entire columns of Minirobots above it without surfacing, and most units cannot target them unless the player has means to remove the Mole's stealth. |

Horizon Zero Dawn: The Rockbreaker is a rare worm-like machine monster that can dive around the ground like a fish in water, which makes it nightmarishly hard for damage. Typically, the best way to fight the beast is to first use tear blast arrows to remove its diggers, thus preventing it from being able to burrow underground. However, this does not prevent it from still being a dangerous opponent. | |
