'''Grrrols''' are spiked stone enemies debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]''. Grrrols resemble circular [[Thwomp]]s with rolling red eyes and a big grin with one tooth missing; the spikes they are surrounded by subtly alternate between lighter and darker shades of gray. Their name is a pun on "grrr", a growling sound, and "roll". They roll around trying to hit the playable characters, and bounce off the walls, themselves, and other solid objects, similar to [[Spike Ball|spiked ball]]s and [[Spiky Tromp]]s. | '''Grrrols''' are spiked stone enemies debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

Grrrols first appear in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''. Similar to Thwomps, Grrrols are nearly invincible enemies, and only the [[Super Star]] has an effect on them, as does hitting the [[Item Block|Item]] or [[Brick Block]] they are on from below; this makes them slightly weaker than spiked balls. Grrrols are spawned by specific pipe-like walls, which can make infinite units. They can also defeat any enemy they roll into. | Grrrols first appear in ''New Super Mario Bros. U''.

Grrrols reappear in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as obstacles in the minigame [[Hop, Drop, and Roll]]. They are periodically produced by a device on the ceiling, which moves across the screen. After falling on the ground, Grrrols move in a direction until they fall off the ledge. The characters are required to jump over the Grrrols and not get hit, otherwise they lose the minigame. | Grrrols reappear in ''[[Mario Party 10]]'' as obstacles in the minigame [[Hop, Drop, and Roll]].

Grrrols reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where they appear as obstacles in the minigames [[Get Over It]] and [[Follow the Money]], wherein the former they must be dodged by jumping over them, and in the latter they must be dodged by moving around them (this also has their larger variants). A Grrrol, along with a [[Wiggler]] and a group of [[Chargin' Chuck]]s, appears in [[Rattle and Hmmm]], where it and the other two cause the player's [[Nintendo Switch#Joy-Con|Joy-Cons]] to rumble. Later, the player must match the subsequent rumbling to the Grrrol or the other two. They may appear as one of the images in [[Absent Minded]]. | Grrrols reappear in ''[[Super Mario Party]]'', where they appear as obstacles in the minigames [[Get Over It]] and [[Follow the Money]], wherein the former they must be dodged by jumping over them, and in the latter they must be dodged by moving around them (this also has their larger variants).
