Depending on the game style and theme, Spike Traps can change appearance, most notably in the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' and ''Super Mario World'' game styles, where in the underwater theme, the Spike Trap is replaced by a [[Jelectro]] or a [[zeldawiki:Sea Urchin|Sea Urchin]] from ''[[zeldawiki:The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]'' (which in turn is based on the [[wikirby:Gordo|Gordo]] from the [[wikirby:Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]], and in this appearance acts more like one due to being invincible), respectively.

''[[Yoshi's Story]]'' features living, jumping [[Spike (Yoshi's Story)|Spikes]] in [[Bone Dragon Pit]] and [[Magma Castle]]. | |||
Unlike other games, spikes are fatal, as simply touching them causes a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]] to lose a life. A more common sharp object, a [[thorn]], also appears in the ''[[Yoshi's Island (series)|Yoshi's Island]]'' series. In the same series, falling into lava or spikes are the only ways Yoshi's death is shown on-screen (not counting when the baby is snatched away); the former shows him spinning and collapsing, while the latter shows him flying off-screen. | |||
