They are identifiable from the large white exclamation mark painted on them. The effects of the Invincibility Barrel allow for some stronger [[List of enemies|enemies]] to be instantly defeated, although normally invulnerable enemies, such as [[Snapjaw (Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest)|Snapjaw]]s, remain unaffected by this. | ||
Invincibility Barrels are sometimes hidden and/or required to reach a [[Bonus room|Bonus Level]]. One example is in ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest'', during [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country 2)|Bramble Scramble]], where [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] and [[Dixie Kong]] can use an Invincibility Barrel to safely cross a nearby [[bramble]] path and fire into a [[Bonus Barrel]].
