'''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 [[ | '''Grrrols''' are spiked stone enemies debuting in ''[[New Super Mario Bros.

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 | Grrrols first appear in ''New Super Mario Bros.

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 a secret room in the [[Stoneslide Tower]] of [[Layer-Cake Desert]]. They are found again in the [[Rock-Candy Mines]] tower, [[Grinding-Stone Tower]], where they are the main obstacles. This level also introduces [[Mega Grrrol]]s. | Grrrols first appear in a secret room in the [[Stoneslide Tower]] of [[Layer-Cake Desert]].
