'''Ka-thunks'''<ref>Musa, Alexander, and Geson Hatchett. ''Super Mario 3D World'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Page 27.</ref> are obstacles that appear only in the courses [[King Ka-thunk's Castle]] and [[Bowser's Lava Lake Keep]] in ''[[Super Mario 3D World]]'' and its [[Nintendo Switch]] port, ''[[Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury]]''. Ka-thunks resemble metal blue square frames covered in spikes that hurt the player upon contact. They either spawn in small crevices and move along a set path until they fall into an abyss, or appear moving in a looping path. Some simply flip from side to side. They function similarly to [[Tox Box]]es, as they move along paths, and the player must avoid them by using the hollow space in the middle. They cannot be destroyed by any means, including invincibility, excluding a pair of Ka-thunks in Bowser's Lava Lake Keep that disappear upon defeating a pair of [[Hammer Bro]]s.
