Spike & Relatives


Spikes are semi-common enemies that appear in a variety of games, beginning with Super Mario Bros 3. Their behaviors widely unchanged throughout their appearances: Usually being situated on top of a hill, they produce spiked balls from their stomachs and toss them towards Mario. The balls roll down the hill, crushing most items in front of them. They can be defeated with a stomp, fireball, or shell. Spikes also have 2 subspecies:

Stone Spike: Throws stone balls straight down. Balls are hazardous to players below them.
First Appearance: New Super Mario Bros Wii.

Snow Spike: Throws snowballs that roll down hills, getting bigger as they roll.
First Appearance: New Super Mario Bros.
