Stop & Go Barrel

Stop & Go Barrel is a unique, rare type of barrels encountered exclusively in the level Stop & Go Station of Monkey Mines.

Summary
Stop and Go barrels have an odd connection to the enemy Rockkroc; these barrels were the Rockkroc's ultimate weakness, when used right. If the Kongs jumped on one, the barrels would switch to "STOP" and the Krocs would be frozen for a short period of time. The level lighting would also change, green if the barrels were on "GO", and red if on "STOP".

In the level, it becomes a race to get them before the Krocs would get free. If on "GO", the Krocs will rapidly move throughout the level, unstoppable. Even when stopped, the Rockkrocs will still be invincible; only in the Japanese version, as well as the GBA remake, did Donkey Kong gain the ability to kill one with his Hand Slap (when they were stopped).
