'''Grrrols''' are spiked stone enemies debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. | '''Grrrols'''<ref>''New Super Mario Bros. U'' Prima eGuide, Enemies Tab.</ref> are spiked stone enemies debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. They are similar to [[Spiked Ball]]s and [[Spiky Tromp]]s from ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', as they roll around trying to hit the playable characters, and bounce off the walls, themselves, and other solid objects. These enemies resemble circular [[Thwomp]]s with rolling red eyes and a big grin with one tooth missing. The spikes they are surrounded by subtly alternate between lighter and darker shades of gray. | ||

Like Thwomps, Grrrols are invincible enemies, and only the [[Super Star]] has an effect on them, as does hitting the Item or Brick Block they are on from below, making them slightly weaker than Spiked Balls. Grrrols are spawned by specific pipe-like walls, which can make infinite units. They can also defeat any enemy they roll into. | |||
Grrrols first appear in a secret room in the [[Stoneslide Tower]] of [[Layer-Cake Desert]]. They are found again in the [[Rock-Candy Mines]] tower, [[Grinding-Stone Tower]], where they are the main obstacles. This level also introduces the Grrrol's [[Grrrol (big)|larger counterpart]]. | |||

The Grrrols return in ''[[New Super Luigi U]]'', appearing in the Layer-Cake Desert stage [[Underground Grrrols]] as the main obstacles. They also appear in [[Stone-Snake Tower]] of [[Soda Jungle]]. | |||

Grrrols reappear in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as obstacles in the minigame [[Hop, Drop, and Roll]]. They are periodically produced by a device on the ceiling, which moves across the screen. After falling on the ground, Grrrols move in a direction until they fall off the ledge. The characters are required to jump over the Grrrols and not get hit, otherwise they lose the minigame. | Grrrols reappear in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as obstacles in the minigame [[Hop, Drop, and Roll]].

Grrrols are present again in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where they appear as obstacles in [[Get Over It]] and [[Follow the Money]]. A Grrrol, along with a [[Wiggler]] and a group of [[Chargin' Chuck]]s, appears in [[Rattle and Hmmm]], where it and the other two cause the players' [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Cons]] to rumble. Later, the player must match the subsequent rumbling to the Grrrol or the other two. They may appear as one of the images in [[Absent Minded]]. | |||
