| |
| '''Millstones''' appear in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]] as large, indestructible stone wheels commonly appearing in ruined areas, mostly as obstacles that harm the player characters by rolling into them. | |
|
| |
|
| ==History==
| | Crusher Wheels first appear in the game ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', here they are often times found in levels featuring temples. Crusher Wheels will either chase [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] through a level or act as obstacles, blocking the Kong's path. |
| ===''Donkey Kong Country''===
| |
| Millstones in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' are located in the two temple stages, [[Millstone Mayhem]] and [[Temple Tempest]]. These millstones are controlled by brown [[Gnawty|Gnawties]], who sit in the center hole, and they either move on predetermined paths attempting to hinder the [[Kong]]s, or are stationary at first but start chasing them at a distance before stopping.

| ===''Mario Superstar Baseball''===
| | Though Crusher Wheels have yet to make another, full appearance they do make a cameo in the game ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]''. Here a discarded Crusher Wheel can be found in Donkey Kong's feild. |
| A giant discarded millstone appears in ''[[Mario Superstar Baseball]]'' on the flanks of [[Donkey Kong Jungle (baseball stadium)|Donkey Kong Jungle]], and it resembles the millstones used by Gnawties in the previous game.

| Millstones are objects in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are located in the [[Clockwork Ruins Galaxy]] only. These millstones are shaped like large stone gears and display rinds on the sides. Millstones fall in indefinite numbers onto inclined pathways and roll down towards the player. They feature cuts on their surface where the player can take shelter to avoid getting squashed, as this directly causes them to lose a life. There are also millstones that do not roll down slants, instead rotating in one fixed place, allowing the player to use their rotation to scale the walls and platforms inside the Millstone.

| ===''Mario Kart 8'' / ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe''===
| |
| Millstones are obstacles in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''. They are located in [[Thwomp Ruins]]. These millstones roll around certain parts of the track after 45 seconds in a race, and one rolls over a wall blocking a [[Glide Ramp]], thus making it available for use. Unlike most hazards in ''Mario Kart 8'', slowly driving into a millstone does not make the racer tumble over.
