Rocks can be used to break a [[barrel]] or to defeat an enemy, although a rock breaks once it hits something. Rocks are featured in the boss fight against [[Fire Necky]], and they start as fireballs spit by Fire Necky, which shortly crystallize into rocks. The Kong must pick up a rock and throw it at Fire Necky to attack it. In [[Ice Castle]], there are [[Kritter|Kremling]]s that pick up and throw rocks at Donkey Kong.

Rocks also appear in multiple 3D Super Mario platformers starting with ''[[ Super Mario 3D Land]]''. In these games they are usually stuck in the ground but pop out upon coming in contact with the player.

Some of them can even contain [[Power Moon|Power Moons]], which is indicated by them glowing after kicking them out of the ground. These take longer to brake, but can be broken instantly by running into them while holding another rock.

Rocks are throwable objects in DK: King of Swing and DK: Jungle Climber. They are usually found near pegs or Peg Boards, but most commonly appear next to them. Rocks first appear in the level Necky's Canyon. The player character (Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong) can pick up a rock with their left or right hand and hold it while the player holds down L Button or R Button respectively. The Kong can hold a rock while swinging from a peg with the opposite hand. They can throw the rock if the player stops holding one of the shoulder buttons, depending on which hand is holding the rock. Rocks can break a barrel or to defeat an enemy, although this does breaks the rock itself. Rocks are featured in the boss fight against Fire Necky, and they start as fireballs spit by Fire Necky, which shortly crystallize into rocks, and Fire Necky can take damage from a rock being thrown at it. Kremlings in Ice Castle pick up rocks and throw them at Donkey Kong to attack.
