Goblins believe there is strength in numbers and attack in swarms. They can also run extremely fast, even to the point of appearing as a vanishing blur.

Role in Twisted Thicket
After battling the Nøkken, a swarm of goblins will begin chasing after you. You have to jump over obstacles quickly and grab the rune at the edge of the forest and escape. After you escape the goblins fall off the cliff into the water below.

Trivia

 * On Main Street, a person claims they saw a goblin like in the movies. This could be a reference to one of the villains from the Spider Man series, the Green Goblin.
 * In the Twisted Thicket trailer, all the goblins wear orange caps but in the game, some of them wear reddish caps.
 * The goblins' hats somewhat resemble classic gnome hats, thus it can be inferred that the goblins on Twisted Thicket are probably a combination of traditional goblins and gnomes.
 * If you have finished the island and go back to the Goblin Pursuit, the path will appear much shorter and with much fewer obstacles.
