They are each a dark barrel reading either "Stop" or "Go" on it, respectively in red and green text, and are similar to [[ON/OFF Switch]]es. The stage lighting corresponds to the Stop & Go Barrels' current setting (red for "Stop" and green for "Go"). | ||

By default, each Stop & Go Barrel is set to "Go," permitting the Rock Krocs to move around. If [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] [[jump]] at a Stop & Go Barrel, it and the other barrels of its type temporarily read "Stop," causing the Rock Krocs to curl into a ball and cease movement. This allows the [[Kong]]s to safely pass the Rock Krocs. After a while, the Stop & Go Barrels revert to "Go," and the Rock Krocs resume movement. The duration in which the barrels are set to "Stop" is based on the distance from that Stop & Go Barrel to the next one. | ||
