'''Grumblumps''' are large multicolored crystal blocks in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. They exclusively appear in [[Grumblump Inferno]] in the ''Super Mario 3D World'' campaign. They are shaped like rectangular prisms with various proportions, including cubes. Several Grumblumps appear waiting in [[lava]] throughout the level. Once the player steps on a Grumblump, its smiling faces on each side turn into frowning faces, and it starts gradually moving along a set path through the lava, turning over on one of its sides at a time. The player must move with it to stay on top of the side currently facing upward, and avoid falling into the lava until it reaches the end of its path.
 
As a Grumblump turns, the player can either [[jump]] to land on the topmost face or walk up its side like a [[Triangular Block]]. Towards the end of the level, two [[Skipsqueak]]s appear on either side of the final Grumblump as obstacles, running to stay on its center as it moves. If the player [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]s a Grumblump, its faces will turn angry, and it will move faster for a short period of time; this allows the player to clear the course faster, but makes staying atop the Grumblump trickier.
 
Although visually similar to [[Rhomp]]s and [[Tox Box]]es, Grumblumps have a different behavior, as they are constantly rotating objects used as platforms. They cannot crush the player, as the lava beneath them instantly causes a life to be lost on contact.

'''Grumblumps''' are a new [[Thwomp]] series in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' in the level [[Grumblump Inferno]], which are large, multicoloured crystal blocks. They have a smiling face on each side &mdash; which strongly resembles that of a [[Rhomp]] from ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' &mdash; and behave similar to [[Tox Box]]es (that is, rolling themselves along a path that is their width). They can be either cubed or rectangular in shape. Once the player steps on a Grumblump, the smiling faces turn into frowning faces, and it starts gradually moving along a set path through the [[lava]] in the [[level]], turning over on one of its sides at a time (Grumblumps act as the only means of traversing these parts of the level). As it moves, the player must move with it to stay on top of the side currently facing upward and avoid falling into the lava until it reaches the end of its path. A Grumblump may also encounter a slope along the way, at which point it will slide down on the side currently facing downward. If the player [[Ground Pound]]s a Grumblump, the faces will turn angry, and it will move faster for a short period of time. Occasionally, two [[Skipsqueak]]s appear on either side of the player to serve as guides for timing running and [[jump]]ing movements when trying to stay on top of the Grumblump. Although they are the same species as Rhomps and Tox Boxes, they are not directly related to Thwomps, as the only Thwomp/Whomp creatures in the game are [[Thwomp|Thwomps]] and [[Walleye|Walleyes]].

Grumblumps are large multicolored crystal blocks in Super Mario 3D World and its Nintendo Switch port, Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. They exclusively appear in Grumblump Inferno in the Super Mario 3D World campaign. They are shaped like rectangular prisms with various proportions, including cubes. Several Grumblumps appear waiting in lava throughout the level. Once the player steps on a Grumblump, its smiling faces on each side turn into frowning faces, and it starts gradually moving along a set path through the lava, turning over on one of its sides at a time. The player must move with it to stay on top of the side currently facing upward, and avoid falling into the lava until it reaches the end of its path.

As a Grumblump turns, the player can either jump to land on the topmost face or walk up its side like a Triangular Block. Towards the end of the level, two Skipsqueaks appear on either side of the final Grumblump as obstacles, running to stay on its center as it moves. If the player ground-pounds a Grumblump, its faces will turn angry, and it will move faster for a short period of time; this allows the player to clear the course faster, but makes staying atop the Grumblump trickier.

Although visually similar to Rhomps and Tox Boxes, Grumblumps have a different behavior, as they are constantly rotating objects used as platforms. They cannot crush the player, as the lava beneath them instantly causes a life to be lost on contact.
