The light-colored balls on chains are stationary platforms, but the dark-colored variant moves along the length of the chain for a finite amount of time when [[Mario]] [[jump]]s on it, eventually flashing and disappearing. These balls on chains have the tendency to move in the path of enemies, such as [[Bullet Bill]]s and [[Tatenoko]]. | '''Balls on chains''',<ref>{{cite|quote=You can avoid the ground spikes by riding balls on chains.|title=''Nintendo Power'', volume 43|page=48|date=December 1992}}</ref> also referred to as '''cogs''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #5|page=56|date=August 1993}}</ref> are a type of [[platform]] found exclusively in the [[Beware: Jagged Spikes|third level]] of the [[Mario Zone]] of ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]'', in which they appear in a lighter color and a darker color.
