Boulders are large rocks found throughout various Mario games, which usually serve as obstacles.
Boulders first appeared in Super Mario 64, and were found within Hazy Maze Cave. In the level is a room where Boulders endlessly roll down a slope and into a bottomless pit. If Mario attempts to climb the slope, the Boulders will deliberately try to home in on him, although they can be dodged. The level's sixth Power Star is entitled "Watch for Falling Rocks", and is located near the Boulders. In Super Mario 64 DS, Wario must instead punch several boulders, (or ram them upon growing with a Mega Mushroom) to receive the Power Star.
In Donkey Kong 64, Boulders appeared as stationary obstacles, often appearing on various pads, which required them to be moved before the pads could be used. However, only Chunky Kong could lift them. Boulders also served as weights, and were sometimes needed to keep various switches pressed down. Chunky Kong could also throw them at enemies. In this game, they were dark green in color.
In Super Mario Galaxy, they roll around in various patterns, and can hurt Mario if they hit him. They are semi-common obstacles that appear in several galaxies, including the Good Egg Galaxy and the Honeyhive Galaxy. They can be destroyed if Mario Star Spins their soft red spot, although larger ones cannot. They can also be destroyed if Rainbow Mario collides with them, or if player two uses their Star Cursor to hold one in place and allows a second one to collide with it, which will destory both boulders. When destoryed, a Boulder will leave behind eight Star Bits.
